The two-wheeler market in India is experiencing a transition towards electric vehicles. Now, the current two-wheeler market in India is mostly focused on electric scooters, and hence multiple companies like Ather, Ola Electric, TVS, Bajaj, and many others are competing to get the biggest share of the pie. However, they are not going to stop here. To ensure their biggest share in the market, multiple companies are going to launch new electric scooters in India. Here we have compiled a list of the top 5 upcoming electric scooters in India to launch in 2023.

Suzuki Burgman Street Electric

The Japanese automaker seems to be planning to launch the Suzuki Burgman Street Electric in India. The scooter comes as the electric version of one of the best-selling scooters of the company in India. Being a derivative of the Burgman, the EV is expected to retain the design elements of the ICE version already on sale. Speculations are the electric version will have a 4 kW motor powering the scooters and giving it a range of around 100 km.

Honda Activa Electric

Honda has announced its intentions multiple times to enter the electric vehicle market. Probably the long-due entry of the two-wheeler manufacturer will be made in 2023. Rumours are the company will be using its most popular model in India, i.e., Honda Activa electric version, to foray into the segment.

TVS Creon

TVS Motors is one of the major contenders in the electric scooter market, with the TVS iQube on sale. To further boost its sales, the company is planning on launching a new electric scooter dubbed TVS Creon.
