I am looking to buy an electric two-wheeler. My daily commute is around 40 km, and budget is not a constraint. I am primarily looking for a scooter with good real-world range and a reliable service network. Could you please suggest the best EV two-wheeler options for my needs?

In the electric two-wheeler market, our top recommendations today are the TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather Rizta and Vida VX2 models. These come with the peace of mind of being backed by a larger manufacturer and are products that have proven their worth over the numerous years they've been on sale. Picking between them will boil down to which product you prefer and which company's touch point (both sales and service) is near your residence. 

Since your daily running isn't too high, pick a variant with a battery capacity around 3kWh which should be more than sufficient. 

We'd recommend a test ride of all products you shortlist before you make a decision.

Bajaj chetak is the best with its toughest body, strong battery backup and excellent after sales service. My Chetak has completed 2 years but still battery gives 100+ kms in a full charge and never felt the battery drainage issue like other brands. It has very good after sales service also which means you can take your vehicle in just 45 minutes from the service center in every PMS. So Chetak is highly recomended for a real EV drive.

Be aware that as the battery life diminishes you will spend more on charging with declining range. Besides the increasing cost, the vehicle will become impractical due to rapidly diminishing range available between charges. Your only route out will be to scrap the vehicle as the cost of replacing the battery will far surpass it's overall value at that time. EVs have very poor fundamentals for long-term ownership and usage.

I am willing to buy the Suzuki burgman street 2026 which was launched this month. But I am just worried as the government is planning to bring the E22 as the current scooter only support E20. What would you suggest to buy or wait for 2027. Flex fuel variants.

Yes, wait for flex-fiel variants to be released.

I’m a first-time car buyer. My usage will be around 40% city driving and 60% on state highways, with a monthly running of approximately 800-1,000 km. The roads are somewhat okay, with some bad stretches but mostly good roads. I’m looking for an automatic transmission. Hatchbacks, compact sedans, and compact SUVs are all fine. My budget is flexible, between Rs. 12 lakh and Rs. 14 lakh. I have shortlisted 3-4 vehicles, namely: 1. Honda Amaze ZX CVT 2. Maruti Brezza ZXi Automatic 3. Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 Automatic Any other car recommendations are also welcome. I am currently posted in Varanasi, if that helps.

With 40 percent city and 60 percent highway use, the 3XO is the better fit among your three choices. Its turbo petrol engine has considerably stronger low- and mid-range performance than the Brezza and Amaze, which will be useful on state highways, particularly when carrying passengers and luggage. It also has a well-judged ride that copes well with broken roads.The Brezza ZXi AT would be the choice for easier ownership. Its petrol engine is smoother, and Maruti's service network is a significant advantage, while its ride quality is very good on poor roads. It is also the more relaxed choice if outright performance is not important.The Amaze ZX CVT is worth considering if you prefer a sedan. Its CVT is smooth, and the suspension is comfortable over rough city roads, while the large boot is useful for highway trips. However, its engine lacks the punch of the 3XO, particularly with a full load, and the cabin is narrower.The Skoda Kylaq 1.0 TSI AT is also worth adding to the shortlist if driving enjoyment is important. It has a well sorted chassis and a conventional automatic, making it particularly appealing for your highway heavy usage.

I have been riding an Activa 110 for all these years. I'm soon going to be 50 and I'm 5'9" tall. I'm planning to buy a motorcycle. I like CB350 or Bonneville 400. As this will be my first bike that I plan to ride for at least 8 years, will these two bike be a little heavy for me? Will I be able to ride any of these easily? Or should I settle with a Ronin? Please advise.

Since you seem like a mature rider and will be getting a motorcycle after a long wait, we'd recommend splurging a little and getting a more premium machine like the Honda CB350RS or the upcoming Triumph Bonneville 400. These bikes will not only perform better than the TVS Ronin, they will also deliver a sense of occassion and premiumness which the TVS simply won't be able to match. Coming to the bikes themselves, the CB350 is a known quantity and delivers a comfortable and laidback riding experience with trademark Japanese reliability to boot. The Bonneville 400 hasn't been launched yet (although it seems like its not that far away either) but going by our previous experience with other Bajaj-built Triumphs, we expect it to be a competent machine although we'll reserve our full judgement until we ride the baby Bonnie. We'd recommend you wait a couple of months until we can ride the Bonneville and once reviews are out you can choose between it and the CB350. Do bear in mind that with every all-new model, there are almost certain to be some teething niggles at the start so waiting 6-8 months until the manufacturer sorts them out would be prudent. And before you go ahead with your purchase, taking a test ride of whatever is on your shortlist should be done too.
