An Electric Scooter Probably consumes 0 to 5 units for a full charge, depending on how much the battery decreases. If the battery remains at 30 percent, then it usually consumes 3 to 4 units.
If you’re planning to buy a new electric scooter and want to calculate the monthly riding cost, here’s an example to consider. Take the Ather Rizta Z+ model, for instance. The company claims it has a range of 159 km per charge(IDC); however, in real-life conditions, you can expect around 125 km per charge in eco mode and about 105 km per charge in zip mode, all while using a 3.7 kWh battery capacity.
If you travel between 30 to 40 kilometers per day, you will need to charge your electric scooter every 2 to 3 days. For week 2 times and by the end of the month, you would typically charge it around 8 to 10 times. For the sake of this example, let’s consider it 10 times.
If we consider that 3 units are consumed at one time to reach a full charge, then the total units used is 3 * 10 = 30 units consumed by the end of the month.
In India, the price of one unit of electricity is nearly Rs 9 to 10. Considering Rs 9, the total cost for riding an electric scooter for a month (30 days) would be Rs 270.
