Ev at it's best
Overall riding comfort is good, but the build quality is a bit issue however we can't argue that with electric scooters, although nice ride experience. Very nice display as well and it is very cost saving compared to petrol vehicle. But doesn't give much safety that is the issue but compared to other ev sector vehicle this is better

Photon electric
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.
