Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which scooter is better iqube or chetak
  • When comparing the TVS iQube and the Bajaj Chetak electric scooters, both models offer unique advantages catering to different rider needs. The TVS iQube features a hub-mounted motor that delivers smooth acceleration and a top speed of 75 km/h, along with faster charging capabilities, making it well-suited for urban commuting. In contrast, the Bajaj Chetak provides a longer range per charge upto 123 km and focuses on premium build quality and ride comfort. We recommend visiting the nearest authorized dealership to book a test ride and evaluate both scooters in person before making a purchase decision.
Q. Shall I buy Aprilia SR125 or TVS Ntorq125?
  • If you're looking for a fast, fun to ride and feature-rich scooter, the TVS Ntorq 125 is the right choice for you. It still remains the benchmark for performance in its class and the sporty styling adds to its appeal. On the other and, the Storm 125 then does really seem like an Aprilia better suited for our harsh roads. The suspension soaks up bumps better than the SR and the block-pattern tyres rarely lose traction. We would have definitely loved to have more features on board but that would have only driven up the price further. The engine continues to be a small letdown. The lack of excitement from the motor doesn’t sit well with Aprilia’s racing ethos and maybe the technicians at Noale need to spend some more hours on it. The biggest hurdle for the Storm 125, though, remains its price. Hence, justifying spending the extra moolah is quite difficult. If you are in the market for something exciting in this segment, then the Yamaha RayZR 125 or the TVS NTorq 125 make better sense. You may compare both scooters accordingly. Do take a test ride in order to get better clarity. Check out authorised dealership details.
Q. I'm 60 years old. I'm looking for a scooter with comfortable riding position with large wheels. Since I'm having back pain suggest me a good scooter for me?
  • As per your requirements, the Aprilia SR 125 could prove to be a good option. Seating comfort is always one of the top priorities while opting for a scooter. The seat comfort on the SR 125 is a bit on the firmer side, so those used to plush scooter seats will find it takes a bit of getting used to. But that said, it isn’t uncomfortable by any means. Lengthwise, the seat looks small, but surprisingly there’s a decent amount of room for even someone on the heavier side. The overall seating posture is pretty good and while the handlebars don’t quite feel tall, they never interfere with the rider’s knees when taking U-turns. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership detals.
