The price increase has been minimal and the recently-announced Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme has helped in lowering the shock that the withdrawal of FAME 2 subsidy could have caused by giving a price cut of Rs 10,000. Additionally TVS has also reduced the price of the scooters by absorbing a bit of the price hike themselves.
It is important to note that these prices are ex-showroom Bengaluru rates and actual prices in your city could vary, to get a clearer picture of the current prices it is advisable to reach out to the nearest TVS dealership.
