Top 5 best scooter rentals in Delhi

Delhi’s traffic can be overwhelming — packed metro trains, unpredictable auto-rickshaws, and endless queues for app-based cabs. But with a scooter from a local rental company, you move on your own terms. You can leave your hotel in Chanakyapuri, zip past the ITO bottleneck via side lanes, park steps from Humayun’s Tomb, and still make it to a dinner reservation in Khan Market — no haggling, no waiting. A scooter gives you the speed of a car and the access of a bicycle, all while cutting through the city like a local.

What do you need to rent a scooter in Delhi?

Required documents vary between rental companies, but common rules are as follows:

1. You can rent a small 50cc scooter with an ordinary B (car) licence or AM license;
2. You will need a car license or A1 (scooter) or A2 (small moto) driving licence for scooters with an engine capacity of 125cc;
3. A full moto licence (A class) is required for all scooters with an engine capacity more than 125cc.
   Some rental companies ask for an International Drivers Permit (IDP) and security deposit (cash or card); always check the terms of specific providers on the booking page before making a reservation.

Scooter types and models available

On our website you can rent classic scooters, Vespa-style models, mopeds, maxi-scooters, three-wheelers, electric scooters, and models with sidecars or windscreen — with automatic or manual gears. Brands include Piaggio, Vespa, Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, TVS, Bajaj, and Hero. Most scooters come with helmets, locks, and basic tool kits.

Key considerations for riding in Delhi

Helmet use is mandatory for both rider and pillion — traffic police enforce this strictly, especially near Connaught Place, ITO, and airport approaches. Two-wheelers are banned from certain high-speed corridors (e.g., parts of the DND Flyway), so always confirm route legality with the rental company. Fuel is not included — you receive the scooter with a full or marked tank and return it the same way.

Extra services you can add

When booking online, you may also order: integral helmet (second), GPS navigation, intercom, unlimited mileage, top case, side cases, gloves, jacket, individual guide or tour, map, full insurance, one-way rental, or delivery to your hotel, railway station, or Delhi Airport.
