Electric scooters come in different shapes, sizes, and performance levels today. But, among these factors, price plays the most important role. If you are tight on budget and want to buy an electric scooter in India, we have compiled a list of the top 5 most affordable electric scooters you can buy in June 2026:
Hero Vida VX2
Price: Rs 78,490 (Rs 44,990 with BaaS)
The Hero Vida VX2 is a family scooter from Vida, Hero MotoCorp’s electric sub-brand. It is built with practicality in consideration and gets a large 33.2 litre boot. It is available for sale in two variants: the Vida VX2 Go and the Vida VX2 Plus. Also, the BaaS scheme makes it a lot more accessible at Rs 44,990, as it removes the primary hurdle for getting an electric scooter – high upfront costs. Also, as this scooter is focused on practicality, it will be the perfect, more affordable alternative for Ather Rizta buyers.
TVS Orbiter
Price: Rs 84,500 (Rs 49,999 with BaaS)
The TVS Orbiter is the newest electric scooter from the brand and is offered in two variants: V1, and V2. It is also one of the most affordable electric scooters in India when purchased through the BaaS (Battery As A Service) scheme. Despite being a budget scooter, TVS has not held back on the feature suite for this. It comes equipped with cruise control, an auto hill-hold function, smartphone connectivity, and even a massive 34-litre underseat storage space, which makes it quite practical. It blends modern design well with practicality and is perfect for budget buyers who want that premium scooter feel.
Ola Electric S1 X Gen 3
Ex-showroom Price: 84,999 onwards
The Ola S1 X Gen 3 is a budget electric scooter. It is available in three battery pack variants: 2, 3, and 4 kWh. The claimed range from these battery packs is 108 km, 176 km, and 242 km, respectively. While the scooter itself is a good product with decent performance numbers, the service experience is very inconsistent across the country. It is perfect for you if you need something that looks modern but doesn’t deviate from the basics of a good electric scooter.
Bajaj Chetak C2501
Price: Rs 91,490
The Bajaj Chetak C2501 is the newest addition to the brand’s lineup. It is the most affordable electric scooter in the Chetak lineup, focused on beginners and first-time EV buyers. It comes in a single variant, with a 2.5 kWH battery pack. Despite being an affordable product, Bajaj has given it a full-metal body and retro styling, just like the other Bajaj Chetak scooters, which makes it feel a lot more premium than its price tag. This is perfect for you if your commute is under 30 km per day and will keep your running costs close to none.
Price: Rs 86,999
Ampere launched the 2026 Magnus Neo in India with some really cool colour schemes and a more accessible seat height. While the scooter’s silhouette was the same as before, its seat height was dropped by 25 mm, which made it a lot more beginner-friendly. It comes with a 2.3 kWh LFP (Lithium Ferro Phosphate) battery pack, with which you get a claimed range of around 118 km in Eco mode. So, if you want something that is cost-effective and looks fresh without grabbing too much attention, this is the perfect scooter for you.
