Is This An Electric TVS Scooty Zest?

Well no, this is the newly launched Buzz e-scooter by Stella Moto

Stella Moto, an Indian electric two-wheeler maker, has launched the Buzz electric scooter at Rs 95,000 (ex-showroom) in the market. Aesthetically, it does bear quite a resemblance to the TVS Scooty Zest.

The Stella Buzz is powered by a 2kW BLDC motor capable of propelling it to a top speed of 55kmph. It gets a 2.16kWh Lithium-ion battery, which offers a claimed range of 90km. This battery pack contains four temperature sensors, which help in monitoring temperatures within the battery pack and also cut power in case of high temperatures. 

Underpinnings include a telescopic fork with gaiters and twin shocks. It gets a disc brake up front while the wheels are shod with tubeless tyres. The Buzz boasts a ground clearance of 180mm, along with a load-carrying capacity of 150kg.

Features on the Buzz include a digital console, cruise control, USB charging and an anti-theft system. It is available in four colours — Grey, Matt Blue, Red and Brown and also gets a three-year warranty.

Considering the overall package, the price tag of Rs 95,000 (ex-showroom) does sound a little steep, especially considering one can get the Ola S1 Air for Rs 84,999 (ex-showroom Delhi), which offers a higher claimed range and better top speed along with an exhaustive list of features. 

In addition to the entry-level Ola electric scooter, the Stella Buzz also rivals the Hero Electric Optima, BGauss B8 and the Pure EV Epluto 7G.
