User Reviews
- Honda QC1 reviewBecause 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.Read More
- E-Access - Accessibility over High Performance.wanted an electric alternative. had an activa generation 2 before this. rented this from a friend in another state and have been riding it ever since. And since suzuki has their own platform for e-service, i was interested to ride it and check it out overall. about alright. suspension is on the stiffer side but overall smooth! the seat comfort and height is very friendly, as compared to other scooters in the market, anyone in the 5ft in range can easily ride this without any fear. I would recommend this bike only if you ride short distances. This is the kind of EV that offers average range as compared to the bigger brands that have been around for a decent bit, not to name any names. Overall, a 3.8 rating from my end is a good standard rating.Read More
