E-bikes and other electric mobility options are becoming increasingly popular in the U.S. In 2024, sales of electric bicycles reached nearly $1.8 billion, and this number is likely higher when you include e-scooters and other similar devices. Even companies like Rivian are entering the market with their micromobility division.
As cities develop better cycling infrastructure to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety, there’s growing interest in electric bikes as a way to travel within urban and local areas. The cost of cars has become very expensive, with many new car buyers facing significant monthly payments before considering fuel and insurance. With tariffs on imported cars and parts set to take effect, it doesn’t seem like car prices will decrease soon. This makes electric bikes a more attractive alternative for many families.

I’m Rohan Mehta, the voice behind KhelRe—a trusted and steadily growing blog dedicated to electric vehicles (EVs) in India. With over five years of experience as a tech and automotive blogger, I turned my frustrations with owning an EV into a mission: to help others make more intelligent choices in this fast-evolving world of electric mobility.
I’ve been an early adopter of EV technology—I repurchased my first electric scooter in 2019. That experience opened my eyes to both the promises and the pitfalls of this new mode of transport. From slow charging times and range anxiety to misleading specs and hidden costs, I’ve faced it all. But instead of walking away, I decided to write about it.
That’s how KhelRe was born—a no-nonsense, hands-on blog where I share practical, real-world reviews of EV cars, bikes, and scooters. I break down features, range, performance, and pricing from a user-first perspective. I take pride in simplifying complex tech into clear, valuable insights—offering tips, ownership stories, and advice you won’t find in flashy press releases or sales brochures.
Whether you’re a first-time EV buyer or just a curious auto enthusiast, my goal is to help you navigate the EV landscape with confidence. My motto: “EV knowledge should come from experience, not just brochures.”
When I’m not test-driving the latest e-scooter or comparing charging networks, you’ll probably find me tinkering with my garage EV setup, chatting with fellow enthusiasts online, or sipping chai while writing my next blog post from a cosy local café.
