In this day and age of soaring fuel prices and uncontrolled and mad traffic scenes all over, using an electric bicycle for your intra-city runs might seem to be a perfect mobility solution.

Following are some of the best electric bicycles in India, which are gaining popularity in the ongoing craze and acceptance of electric vehicles:
