The modern automotive industry has showcased its transitory phase of switching to alternative and less energy-intensive mobility options. To reduce environmental impact and improve sustainability, numerous countries are committing themselves to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. At the 26th Conference of Parties (CoP 26) meeting, more than 120 countries accounted for 52% of global emissions. Meanwhile, the Indian Government has introduced numerous policy initiatives in a bid to tackle increased oil import bills. The Indian Government has also introduced the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric vehicles (FAME-II) scheme. This will allow Indian customers to receive a 50% rebate on electric two-wheelers, which varies from one state to another. The FAME-II scheme offers an INR 15,000 rebate per kWh of battery capacity, covering 40% of vehicle costs. Keeping this in mind, here is a list of the upcoming electric two-wheelers which are set to arrive in 2022.
