For those looking for an electric scooter within a budget of Rs 1 lakh, the e-SPRINTO G1 could be an option. e-Sprinto has emphasised features for daily commuting, different battery options and a family-friendly design in the new scooter. Its starting ex-showroom price is Rs 89,999, and customer deliveries will begin on January 1, 2027.

There are three battery options: 2.0 kWh, 2.5 kWh and 3.0 kWh. The 2.0 kWh variant has a claimed range of 80 km and is priced at Rs 89,999. The 2.5 kWh variant, with a 100 km range, costs Rs 94,999. The top variant with the 3.0 kWh battery is priced at Rs 99,999 and has a claimed range of 130 km. The actual range can vary with road conditions, speed, load and the way the scooter is ridden.

The scooter has four riding modes: Eco, City, Sport and Reverse. The top speed is 30 km/h in Eco mode, 40 km/h in City mode and 50 km/h in Sport mode. Reverse mode makes it easier to back the scooter out of tight spaces. It could therefore be useful for trips to the office, college, market and for errands nearby.

On storage, the scooter has 28 litres of under-seat space, which can hold groceries, a raincoat and other everyday items. It also gets a flat footboard, a digital display, a USB port, and an LED headlight and tail light.

The e-SPRINTO G1 has 165 mm of ground clearance, 12-inch wheels and tubeless tyres. Both wheels have drum brakes with a combined braking system (CBS). The scooter is available in four colours: Pine Green, Charcoal Black, Slate Grey and Horizon Blue. The company has stated a load capacity of 150 kg.

Overall, the e-SPRINTO G1 can be considered by those looking for an electric scooter on a low budget. Before buying, however, it is important to check the battery variant, the actual range, charging facilities and the distance of one's daily commute.
