Let’s first take a look at the names of the three scooters. They are – Select 2.2, Rapid 2.2, and Plus (Lithium). Each falls under the central government’s project FAME II what makes them eligible for government subsidies. However, there’s no place of denial that few incidents of catching fire recently on battery-operated scooters have, indeed, instilled a fear among customers.But, Sokudo affirmed that these models will completely eliminate that fear of fire as these models are equipped with lithium-ion ferro-phosphate batteries which are ‘fire-resistant’.
For charging facilities, there has a 15-amp converter in these models. It’s worth noting that the Plus model is a slow-paced scooty, that means it doesn’t require either a license or need to have registration from the Regional Transport Office (RTO). Now, let’s find out the prices of these three electric scooters.
The launch prices for Sokudo’s Select 2.2, Rapid 2.2, and Plus are set at ₹85,889, ₹79,889, and ₹59,889 respectively.Each Prices are ex-showroom.
