Post lockdown it will be a huge challenge to maintain physical distancing in overcrowded public transport. A majority of commuters might prefer personal mobility – as it will be safer & convenient to travel. According to a study conducted by Frost and Sullivan – e-rickshaws, e-autos, and e- two-wheelers are the most promising segments for electrification in India and are supposed to account for over 4-million sales by 2025. The study also suggests that 30-40 percent of scooters in the country will be electric in 7-8 years.
