e-Sprinto launches G1 escooter, targets 5,000 sales by March
E2W maker e-Sprinto has entered the B2C market with the launch of its G1 family electric scooter, priced from ₹89,999. Deliveries begin on 1 January 2027. The scooter is available in three variants with battery options of 2 kWh, 2.5 kWh and 3 kWh, offering claimed ranges of up to 80 km, 100 km and 130 km.
The company is targeting sales of around 5,000 G1 units by March 2027 and plans to add about 150 dealerships by FY28. Founded in 2022, e-Sprinto has over 70,000 vehicles on Indian roads and three manufacturing facilities with a combined capacity of 1.5 lakh units per year. The launch follows a 1,564% month-on-month jump in registrations to 1,997 units in September. The cofounders said the startup is bootstrapped and EBITDA profitable, with revenue expected to double in FY27.
Indian Opinion Analysis
e-Sprinto’s shift from B2B fleets to B2C retail targets a segment where Ather, Ola Electric and Simple Energy already compete. Its price point and claimed ranges put it against petrol scooters, but dealer margins and building a retail network could hurt near-term profitability. The founders say they are EBITDA profitable and bootstrapped, with revenue doubling expected in FY27. The next milestones are January 2027 deliveries and the 150-dealership target by FY28.
