My Words:

Indian consmers and buyers have always been price oriented and asked for the most affordable product from the manufacturer. So, for those who is having price tag is major concern this is really a good news. Evolet Motor has really made it possible to make EVs very much affordable. Here all launched EVs are having same price tag as similar to their rival petrol scooter and bikes. Its really good deal for the customer. But, the sales and service also matters a lot. Well during the launch event company has promised for the best sales and service facility so time will tell the real story.
