Yamaha Aerox-E: Same Price Other Options
Here are 5 two-wheelers you can consider instead of the Yamaha Aerox-E.
The Yamaha Aerox-E was recently launched in India at Rs 2,81,600 (ex-showroom), making it one of the most expensive electric scooters in its segment. However, at that price, there are multiple two-wheelers, both electric and petrol-powered that you can buy, and which also offer more performance and features. Here's a list of 5 two-wheelers you can buy instead of the Yamaha Aerox-E.
TVS Apache RTR 310
Price: Rs 2.25 lakh to Rs 2.89 lakh (ex-showroom)
The TVS Apache RTR 310 gets a striking streetfighter design along with a potent 312cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. It makes 35.6PS and 28.7Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox with a bidirectional quickshifter.
This Apache is one of the most feature-packed bikes in segment, and is quite fun to ride. It's quick off the line, it's fast, and it's lot of fun in the corners, making it a well-rounded, enthusiast-oriented pick over the Aerox-E.
Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450
Price: Rs 2.49 lakh to Rs 2.72 lakh (ex-showroom)
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 is nothing like any of the other Royal Enfield bikes. While it's retro-roadster styling might have you think it's an easy-going bike, it is anything but. While you have the more powerful options in the brand's 650cc range, they can feel a bit heavy or too relaxed. For a brand that's casually known to make its bikes like guns, the Guerrilla feels like a machine-gun.
Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6
Price: Rs 2.79 lakh (ex-showroom)
The Flying Flea C6 is a very niche, lifestyle-oriented electric bike from Royal Enfield. Even then, it has longer range than the Aerox. It also looks quite unique, with its girder fork. It's definitely one of the coolest looking electric two-wheelers in the country, while offering a decently usable range.
KTM 250 Adventure
Price: Rs 2.54 lakh (ex-showroom)
The KTM 250 Adventure is almost a do-it-all bike. It's got good power while being friendly enough, decent spread of features, and then there's the low maintenance cost of KTM. Perfectly suitable for a one-bike garage.
Ather 450X + Ather Rizta S
Price: Rs 2.75 lakh (combined, ex-showroom)
For the same price as the Yamaha Aerox-E, you can get the base versions of the Ather 450X and the Ather Rizta S and still have some money left! The 450X is for those times when you want to have fun, while the Rizta when duty calls. Two for the price of one.
