India’s EV scooter market is charging ahead—quite literally. With range anxiety still a major concern for buyers, fast-charging EV scooters are quickly becoming the preferred choice for urban commuters. These scooters reduce charging time drastically, making them as convenient as a quick coffee break.
In this article, we’ll look at the top EV scooters in India that support fast charging in 2025, along with their features, charging times, and real-world performance.
1. Ather 450 Apex
Fast Charging Speed: 1.5 km/minute via Ather Grid
Full Charge Time: ~4.5 hours (home), 0-80% in ~45 min (fast charger)
Range: 157 km (IDC)
Top Speed: 100 km/h
Why It Stands Out:
Ather has one of the most reliable fast-charging networks in India—Ather Grid. With a fast charger, you can get 50 km of range in under 20 minutes. Perfect for city dwellers who hate waiting.
2. Ola S1 Pro Gen 2
Fast Charging Speed: 3 km/minute (Hypercharger network)
Full Charge Time: ~6.5 hours (home), 0-50% in ~18 min (fast charger)
Range: 180 km (IDC)
Top Speed: 120 km/h
Why It Stands Out:
Ola’s Hypercharger network is expanding across India at a rapid pace. For long commutes, the ability to charge to half capacity in under 20 minutes is a game-changer.
3. TVS iQube ST
Fast Charging Speed: ~2 km/minute (optional fast charger)
Full Charge Time: ~4 hours (home), 0-80% in ~55 min (fast charger)
Range: 150 km (IDC)
Top Speed: 82 km/h
Why It Stands Out:
TVS has partnered with charging providers like Zeon and Jio-BP to improve charging access. The iQube ST balances comfort, range, and charging speed for everyday riders.
4. Simple One
Fast Charging Speed: 2.5 km/minute
Full Charge Time: 5 hours (home), 0-80% in ~50 min (fast charger)
Range: 212 km (IDC)
Top Speed: 105 km/h
Why It Stands Out:
With the longest range in its segment, the Simple One is designed for those who want both endurance and quick charging capabilities.
5. Bounce Infinity E1+ (with Swappable Battery)
Fast Charging Speed: N/A (battery swap in 2 minutes)
Full Charge Time: ~4 hours (home) or swap in under 2 minutes
Range: 85 km per battery
Top Speed: 65 km/h
Why It Stands Out:
Instead of traditional fast charging, Bounce offers battery swapping stations where you can swap a discharged battery for a charged one in minutes—making it faster than any charger.
