An official said many e-scooters were purchased in Mumbai, while dedicated e-vehicle shops have also come up in the suburbs which is a good trend as they operate silently, with zero emissions.
Over three years, electric vehicle registrations grew by 407% in Maharashtra and 1,360% in Mumbai. Latest transport department statistics show that from 1,459 electric cars and scooters registered in 2017-18 in the state, the figure rose to 7,400 in 2019-20. The figure jumped from 46 to 672 in Mumbai.
