Suzuki Motorcycle India has announced the opening of bookings for its first electric scooter, the Suzuki e-ACCESS, marking Suzuki’s global entry into the electric two-wheeler segment, starting with the Indian market.

The EV scooter is built on a lightweight chassis with an aluminum battery case integrated into the frame, the scooter is engineered for stability and agile handling, it said. It also features LED lighting, two-tone alloy wheels, and a maintenance-free drive belt designed to last up to seven years or 70,000 km.
