I am a field engineer, and my expected daily running is around 130-150 km. I also need to carry approximately 70 kg of materials on a regular basis. Considering my usage pattern, which electric scooter would be suitable for me?

With your lengthy daily run, you should look at the TVS iQube ST 5.3. Its large battery is the most suited to your use case especially since you also carry a heavy load with you every day. Expect the battery to drain out a little more quickly while carrying load than if you ride solo. You may have to find a charging point for a quick top-up somewhere in between but by and large if you're sensible with your throttle hand, you should be able to finish your daily run in a single charge. The iQube is a well-established scooter with proven, reliable underpinnings and a wide service reach across the nation so you are buying one of the safest EVs out there.

Hey Autocar, I am a college student planning to get either an electric scooter or a motorcycle. I travel around 25 to 30 km every day, usually with a friend. I need to carry several items, including two helmets and bags. My budget is around Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 2 lakh. I live in an apartment and can get the charging setup settled, but I am unsure which vehicle to get. Thanks in advance!

You should look at electric scooters with 3kWh battery packs, which will give you a more than sufficient real-world range of around 100km on a single charge and should also come in around the Rs 1.50 lakh mark. In the e-scooter market, you should look at market frontrunners such as the TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather Konarc (or even the Rizta) and Vida VX2 models. These are all proven options from reputed makes, and it would make sense to go for one that has a sales and service point near your residence or college campus for ease of ownership. Of them all, the Rizta and Chetak have the most well-designed and spacious boots, with the Konarc and iQube trailing them closely. Depending on the battery variant you choose, the Vida is either on par with the Konarc/iQube or slightly below it, but you should have decent storage on all. Take test rides of these before you make a decision.

Electric scooters are finally becoming the mainstream choice. TVS have doubled their EV sales in october.

I’m planning to buy an entry-level adventure bike, mostly for my 30 km daily commute in Pune, along with weekend rides of more than 200 km once or twice a month. I’m confused between the Honda NX200 and the TVS Apache RTX 300. I’m 45 years old and 5 ft 9 in tall. I’ve had lumbar problems in the past, but I’m fine now. Which one would you recommend?

If you are looking for a comfortable ADV motorcycle, the TVS Apache RTX and Hero Xpulse 210 should be on your radar in this price range. The Honda NX200 is a dressed-up Hornet 2.0 and, aside from its look, isn't a 'proper' adventure bike. Both the RTX & the Xpulse are capable, comfortable and quick motorcycles, with the latter being the easier of the two to ride and manage - given that both have a tall 835mm seat height. However, the RTX has the better road manners and the far superior feature set. Take a test ride of both before you make your decision.It would also be prudent to wait for the Honda XR300 Rally, which should be available in a BigWing showroom near you in a few months' time.

Hi Autocar India, I have a budget of 1 lakh 50 thousand for a new bike, and a 125cc motorcycle suits my requirements. I’ve shortlisted the Bajaj Pulsar 125 and the Honda SP 125, but I’m confused between the two. Which one would you recommend?

•2d

Both the Bajaj Pulsar 125 and Honda SP125 are great commuter bikes, and it's hard to go wrong with either. The latest Pulsar 125 is a refined, feature-loaded (the top variants, especially so) and decently comfortable machine which should be fuel efficient and reliable in the long run as well. The SP125 has largely remained the same since its BS6 update, gaining only a few features and new colours - it is largely a Shine 125 in different clothes, which means it should be a straightforward and dependable workhorse of a commuter. As we said at the outset, it's hard to go wrong with either, so make sure you get a test ride and see which one you like more before you make your decision. It would also be wise to choose an option that has a sales & service touchpoint near your office or residence.

I’m a 40-year-old man, 6 ft 4 in tall and of slim build, and I’ve never ridden a motorcycle before. I don’t have a commute, since I live on a residential campus, so the bike will be for fun weekend rides. I’m considering the Honda XR 300 Rally Edition, because I don’t want to spend much more than Rs 2 lakh and its power-to-weight ratio is good. As a first-time rider, I want a light bike that can survive falls and drops without much damage. I also live in a non-metro city, where service and maintenance can be a problem, so I’m choosing Honda for its reliability. Is this the right choice, or have I missed anything?

The Honda XR300 Rally you're considering seems to have quite a lot going for it, judging from what we know of it so far. Another alternative you could consider is the Hero Xpulse 210, which has been around for far longer and is more of a proven commodity than the XR300 Rally. It's not as if the Xpulse is free from issues, but they are well documented and usually have a quick and inexpensive fix. Given that the XR300 Rally is a brand-new product, there could be small teething issues at the start, although given the badge on the tank, you're likely to be in safe hands in terms of the ownership experience, even if there are.
