Electric vehicles are taking over the roads, offering a cleaner and more cost-effective alternative to petrol scooters. But let’s be honest, while EVs are great, their high upfront cost often holds people back. A high-performance lithium-ion battery can make up 30-40% of an electric scooter’s price, making EV adoption a financial stretch for many.
Now, imagine if you didn’t have to buy the battery at all. What if you could simply subscribe to one, just like you do for your favourite streaming service? That’s the EV battery subscription modelfor you. An innovation that’s making electric scooters more affordable, convenient and stress-free.

Lectrix, an innovative electric scooter manufacturer, has been at the forefront of this change, bringing India’s first-ever battery subscription service. With feature-packed models like the Lectrix LXS 2.0 and NDuro, riders now have the freedom to own an EV without worrying about battery costs, maintenance or depreciation. It’s a game-changer, let’s find out why.
The High Cost of Battery Ownership: Why Pay More Than You Need To?
Traditional EV ownership requires you to buy the battery along with the scooter. The problem? Battery warranties typically last for 3 years or 30,000 km but in real-world conditions, many batteries start deteriorating within 1.8 years due to wear and tear. Once the warranty expires, riders face hefty battery replacement costs, ranging from ?30,000 to ?60,000, depending on the model.
And then there’s battery anxiety–the constant worry about performance and unexpected breakdowns. The battery is the most expensive and unpredictable part of an EV, so why take on that burden?

Battery on Subscription: A Smart, Hassle-Free Alternative
The battery subscription model eliminates these concerns. Instead of buying a battery, riders simply pay a fixed monthly fee to use a high-quality, well-maintained battery. This fee is significantly lower than what you’d spend on fuel for a petrol scooter.
Here’s how it benefits EV owners:
1. Significant Cost Savings
Petrol expenses range from ?1,500-?3,000 per month. With a battery on subscription, you pay a fixed, predictable fee, saving thousands over time.
2. No Upfront Battery Cost
The scooter price drops by 30-40%, making EVs much more affordable. For instance, you can bring home high-performing e-scooters like Lectrix NDuro for under ?60,000.
3. No Battery Maintenance or Replacement Costs
Since you don’t own the battery, any performance issues, servicing or replacements are handled by the provider. Providers like Lectrix even offer a lifetime battery warranty along with their battery subscription.
4. Always Have a Reliable Battery
With a subscription, you’ll never have to worry about battery degradation or reduced range. If something goes wrong, you get a replacement–it’s as simple as that.
5. Peace of Mind
No more worrying about the battery’s long-term durability or unexpected breakdowns. Your EV is yours to enjoy, without the battery headaches!
