Guys wife need a scooter for office.So which one be better electric or petrol.Daily run would be 3km.I already hv a petrol scooter for my use now needed for her.So suggest what would be better.
 
for daily 3km short range, get a non-rto low speed electric scooty which should cost 35k to 45k range. Running cost will be negligible.
In case of sudden long trips, you do have a backup of pertol scooty.

Go for petrol, cost efficient and last for long. As EV may seems cost efficient but the service and battery replacement cost would be way higher, in calculation the total cost for petrol vechicle for 10 years would costs 3lak, whereas for EV greater than 3lak (Just for example).

High speed electric scooters will be value for money only when you have high running, atleast 5000kms a month. Anything lower than this would be waste of money.
Suggest you to go with a petrol scooter for your use case.

Say NO to electric scooters if you live in hot/hotter regions of India.
Yeah petrol one seems better option,
Hold up which electric scooters you were considering though?
( Either way if their parts go bad their costs is generally higher than petrol ones )

Edit* also fk vespa ( idk why but even in towns people seem to be willing to pay more for scooters like vespa )
