We’ve ridden so many electric scooters this year that we’ll spare you a lesson about the burgeoning sector of the industry and how with the promise of being more eco-friendly, they are also significantly cheaper to own and run than conventional ICEs. Honestly, it’s a little late in the day for it, electric scooters are here and they are here to stay. While we are yet to see is an electric motorcycle that we can honestly recommend, although there are a couple of electric scooters that have impressed us with their balance of range, performance and everyday practicality, you know the two. So far they’ve been symbiotic, each caters to a slightly different customer base, and each has contrasting statements of purpose. Now though there’s a disruptor on the way, it’s still some time away from the showrooms and there are still some glaring rough edges, but this contender easily has what it takes to - in their own words - #bethechange. The company in question is a plucky Bangalore-based start-up called Simple Energy with an electric scooter called One.
