                  Honda QC1 review
                  Because it is EV and I need it for local use, better for daily commute like local market and school. For my daughter's daily school and coaching commuting. Of course, pollution free ride and contribution in environment saving. It is full of satisfaction and exciting. Good boot space to carry daily usages things like helmet and some small items. Ride quality is smooth and stable and breaking is also good. Need to work on range. Yes, The reason is clean design and style. Honda's provides less range so expecting some better range in coming days. Need to improve on battery warranty. There should be at lifetime warranty. Overall its is good in its price range.

                  Happy Journey
                  Scooter is in great condition. In 2 years no problems faced. In a single charge its mileage is between 90-100kms. No motor or battery or any other issues faced in 2 years of ride. Pickup is top notch. Latest software is recently updated to 5.0.1 Charger is working perfectly fine. Only 13,000kms driven so battery is almost like new.

                  Nice performance
                  Nice but not giving the range as promised. Styling is good but the overall performance is not as expected. In Normal mode it's only giving 90 km of range which is mentioned as 125 km in the specs. Overall satisfied with the company service but sometimes the ui or os starts to lag which may fall you in a dangerous situation.
