According to the latest EV Markets Report, the rate of EV adoption in India has witnessed a surge of 55 percent since the year 2018. Interestingly, the report also stated that the rate of adoption has been high in the electric two-wheeler and three-wheeler segments. The rising popularity of two-wheelers can be attributed to their cost-effective operation and environmental perks. However, two-wheelers are also prone to getting into accidents. In 2022, two-wheeler fatalities in India rose by nearly 8 percent, accounting for around 44 percent of road fatalities. As more individuals opt for electric bikes and scooters as their mode of transport, manufacturers should focus more on the safety aspect of the vehicles and enhance the features to ensure a complete experience for the riders. Such efforts will also align with the government’s attempt to increase road safety and help manufacturers comply with new regulations. On the other hand, individuals should look for electric two-wheelers with advanced features that enhance their protection and ensure a smooth riding experience.
