                  Tvs iqube review for next buyers
                  I like the looks and already tried tvs bike so like this brand and the mileage is also very good in this as it is good and my family also like the looks of this scooty so we choose this and very I am very much satisfied with the quality it gives. As about the mileage it is good as it's around 85 km and and the comfort it gives is too good as I also have activa 6g but I feel very comfortable in this. The negative I find is that the accessories are not available at the showroom very difficult to find it's accessories. Yes I highly recommend this scooty as this is far better than the cheap electric scooty that are available in the market. I recommend this to the people who look for looks. Design and mileage. If you want features than there were ather, Ola, vida etc are there but look wise it is best

                  This New Year 2026,get your money saving machine.
                  Because it has good range in city as well as in highway ride or a journey, with good linear performance and comfort. The ride quality of this scooter is very well and its efficiency is the best in the entire category. And the pricing of this scooter is also a good factor to buy it. It gives me easily 115 kms range in both city and highway riding. I was travels many times with my Tvs iQube 3.5 kwh scooter from my Home which id located in Srinagar Garhwal to my Village which is approx 47 km in single side with unconstructed road about 4-5 km and it performs fantastic with comfortable ride. There is only one negative point for me is Its take a little bit more time while charging, this could have been better. If your daily travels is more than 80 km than you should definitely buy Tvs iQube 3.5 kwh variant. Because its battery last more than 110 km range. Or if your daily travel is less than 60 km still it is best choice for you because you charge it.. It last almost a week in this case. And have good practicality of 32 L boot space.

                  It is the first EV i saw on the road. I have been watching for more than 4 years. I like the way it has been designed, comfort and safety. More over the brand name and my dream to buy the vehicle. To be part of the carbon free world. Very smooth. The head light projection is very good while riding during the night time. Leg space is comfortable. The boot space also very large to keep more items. usually in petrol vehicle the heat generated accumulates in the thing inside the boot area. Now no problem. Definitely i will recommend the bike to my friends and relatives. So far 7 numbers of friends and relatives bought this bike based on my recommended. My relative shared his experience after buying the bike. More convenient for lock trip and to my office.

                  All is well
                  Best bike I had. Then after a test drive I was fully satisfied with the model looks, driving it was pleasure . Was a bit hesitate with average as I purchased the base model. But it was wow it's almost 70 km running in one charge with base model. Really best at all angles. Ride is very nice as compared to other bikes ev. I have another ev also . Really the balancing and the built quality of vehicle is very best. My wife started travelling on iqube, left her car for city driving. Best bike in all fields. Weather in build quality, riding pleasure , average maintenance. I am using it from 2 years . Zero maintained. Not a single issue or problem can say. Premium drive feeling. should go for the iqube, if planning for ev.

                  Eco Friendly City Rides
                  I wanted a quiet and electric bike for short trips. TVS iQube’s smooth start and light handling were appealing. It promised stress free city commutes without fuel worries. A test ride confirmed it silent, easy and surprisingly fun. City errands are a breeze. Smooth acceleration, gentle brakes and light steering make trips effortless. Battery lasts all day. Even navigating traffic feels calm. Commuting is convenient, relaxing and surprisingly enjoyable. Yes perfect for quiet and practical city riders. Low maintenance and easy it suits beginners or anyone valuing stress free daily commuting. Makes urban travel simple and eco friendly. Every time I ride this bike I feel happy.

                  I think it's best in this price as it is offering a very good mileage and all accessories in just 20000 that is more than enough for us and it is very useful for short distance travelling I truly recommended it for those who want to buy a electric scooter which offers a good mileage and that's all that I have to say

                  Review of a 3 year experience
                  I bought it and used to drive upto 90km daily , in my opinion the rider would feel discomfort for longer range and the back passenger feels a very good knockback while accelerating , foot rest isn't good so the backseater would feel his legs going numb or may have cramps , pick-up of the sccoty is good and the speed too , i would recommend this for shorter range not because of mileage but due it's comfort , the seat isn't properly designed for comfort which gives back pain , another con of this vehicle is it's build quality , the break levers won't survive any shock they break easily , my suspensions also got damaged and started to leak but all this problem occurs if you overuse it , using it daily for 30-40km with proper servicing won't give negative response from the scooty. Battery backup isn't reduced or if it is I don't notice it , I use for 90km daily and battery backup is good though it won't run 90km on a single charge.

                  Worst Scooter
                  Worst scooter in the electric version. It is not performing well, the mileage is very bad, and its parts, including the brake wire, broke within a month.
