The e‑SPRINTO G1 promises a 130‑km range on a single charge, a benchmark that sits comfortably above many entry‑level scooters. It’s a launch date set for 13 October 2026, and the company says the design draws on data collected from its busy commercial fleet.
So, where does this land in the crowded two‑wheel market? Think of the Bajaj Chetak EV, which tops out around 95 km, and the Mahindra e‑Scooty, with roughly 100 km. The G1 steps in a notch higher, offering a longer daily commute without the need for a second battery pack. That longer range is a real win for families that need to hop on the scooter for a full day of errands.
From a policy angle, the 2026 EV push keeps the conversation alive. The government’s duty‑reduction scheme for domestically manufactured two‑wheelers is expected to bite into the cost of these machines, while the 5‑per‑cent GST on electric scooters under 200 km should keep the sticker price in check. For a buyer, that means the G1 could sit in the same price bracket as its rivals but with a premium on mileage.
The rollout will begin in the metros on launch day, with tier‑2 and tier‑3 cities picking up the following weeks. Keep an eye on charging infrastructure roll‑out and battery swap options, because those will dictate how far the 130‑km claim translates into real‑world use. Stay tuned for the official spec sheet, which will spill the details on motor power, boot space, and charging times.
