1. How do the Electric Scooters Function?
The image above explains the Electric scooter functioning.
- The Power source of an Electric Scooter is the battery.

Electric Scooters can be of 2 types – Low Speed and High Speed. Low Speed are defined as Electric Scooters, which have Motor Wattage of less than 250 Watts and a maximum speed of 25kmph.
As per the Motor Vehicle Act of India, you do not need any driving license for Low Speed Electric Scooters. But If Motor Wattage is more than 250Watts or speed is more than 25Kmph, then you need to have a valid Two-Wheeler driving license.
