Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is best TVS iQube or Vida V1?
  • Both vehicles are good in their own forte. The iQube may not be the prettiest of the lot, but it delivers on various other aspects, and how! There’s plenty of juice to get you from A to B and back before it runs out, enough power to leave IC-powered rivals eating dust, and just the right features for the modern day. It gives a good range of around 145km/charge which is good for the daily commute. On the other hand, the Hero Vida V1 is built on an underbone frame linked to a telescopic fork and a single rear shock absorber. Braking is via a disc up front and a drum at the rear. It is the most expensive electric scooter on sale in India. Yes, it is a premium product and comes bundled with a bunch of features, but it’s a product from Hero MotoCorp, a brand renowned for its value proposition. It has great build quality and its performance is also amazing. we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.

    Pricing too high for daily riders  

    TVS IQube is a good reliable Electric scooter with a good riding range of 120-150 km per charge. the build quality is appreciable and the rear suspension is also good. it gets fully charged within 5 hours. according to me the pricing is not reasonable as compared to other electric scooters with these specifications.

    Power in scooty is here 

    My father recently tried my TVS iQube . It's a good choice for eco-conscious riders looking for a clean and convenient mode of transportation for city rides. This is the most affordable variant with a range of 75 km. Its price generally ranges from ₹93,089 which is quite high in this segment . It generally weighs from around 117.2 to 118.8 kg which is a very lighweight but it creates problem also when i ride it in high speed it starts vibrating .
