Many people are even searching for “Jio electric scooter online booking” but the truth is, there’s nothing to book yet. Reliance Jio has not made any announcements on its official website or social handles or in press releases. So long answer short, there’s no Jio electric online bookings happening right now.

.

The Jio Electric Scooter buzz began when JioThings, a subsidiary of Reliance Jio, partnered with MediaTek and later with PureEV to create Smart Digital Clusters and Modules for EVs. While Jio never announced launching its own Jio scooter or Jio electric cycle, this partnership sparked rumours. Especially after JioThings August 2024 press release stating they aim to "reshape the electric two-wheeler experience in India." Add PureEV’s EV manufacturing background, and the internet just filled in the gaps. But so far, Jio has denied any official plans to launch a scooter.

For those who may not know, JioThings’ Smart Digital Cluster, launched in collaboration with MediaTek, is India’s first “Made in India” EV dashboard system - says Jio. It features 4G Android-based displays, real-time diagnostics, voice control, cloud analytics, and access to Jio apps like JioSaavn, JioPages, and JioXploR. The system is meant to enhance rider experience in existing electric two-wheelers. As per Jio President Kiran Thomas, this is about creating global benchmarks in smart mobility. But again, it’s for EV tech, not a Jio-branded scooter.

So the bottom line is we don’t know if Jio will bring its Jio electric scooter in India or not. They may not or they might as well given in their PR, they’ve clearly appreciated the growing demand of the EV market.

Nevertheless, we hope this article helped break this whole bubble of Jio electric scooter launch in India, price, features and everything else you’ve been seeing all over the internet.
