Price list: 3 new models of NIU scooters in Nepal

NIU scooters are one of the first electric scooters to make an impact on the two-wheeler market where fossil fuel vehicles are dominating by a very huge margin. The stylish lightweight body and smart features on the NIU scooters made the brand popular here in no time as these scooters are currently one of the best electric scooters available in Nepal.

NIU is probably the first electric scooter company to have premium electric scooters in Nepal. It has been continuously bringing a premium range of electric scooters in Nepal for quite a time now. It also launched Gova G3 not long ago and currently has three new models for sale here in Nepal.

Here are the three new models of NIU scooters with their specifications and prices.
