I want to purchase an electric scooter. My daily running is around 80 km and sometimes more. I already purchased an OLA electric scooter 2 years back, but I’m not satisfied due to poor performance and several issues - the vehicle stopped working and had repeated MCU and other problems. Kindly suggest the best electric scooter for my daily use, with an average running of around 80 km.

Since your daily running is quite high, you will need to get an electric scooter with a 3.5kWh battery pack or more. For your needs, we'd advise you to pick between the Bajaj Chetak 35 models, TVS iQube 3.5kWh variants and Ather Rizta 3.7 duo. All three are proven models and come from reputed companies with a decent reputation for aftersales so you should, by and large, not have a similar experience as you did with your previous Ola Electric scooter.

Picking between the three will boil down to which one you find the most manageable and which company has a sales and service touchpoint near you. Take a test ride of all three to make a more informed decision.

I am looking for a Electric Scooter. Which one is best. My daily commute I around 15 km. Looking for better storage and comfortable ride

I am 30 years old and my body weight is 58 kg and I am 5'3" tall. In July 2025, I had a lumbar microdiscectomy surgery. I work as a physiotherapist so I have to travel around 40 km daily on my bike. Which is the most fuel efficient bike in the 150cc segment at low price?

Given your long 40km daily commute, a history of back issues and valuing fuel efficiency and a good price, the Honda Unicorn is the best fit in the 150-160cc category. It has a very comfortable and upright riding position, a well-padded seat and a soft suspension setup that absorbs bad roads well, which is important for your back. The engine is smooth and refined, and Honda’s reliability and low maintenance costs make it a sensible long-term choice. It is not the most feature-rich bike in the segment, but it does the basics extremely well and is known for its comfort and durability.If you instead want something that looks and feels a little sportier, then look at the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V. The Xtreme is a lightweight, comfortable, feature-rich and proven offering which adds a dash of style to the proven commuter recipe. The Xtreme is a good deal more expensive than the Unicorn but also brings in more features and better mechanicals to justify that premium. Take test rides of both and see which one is more comfortable for you as well as in your budget before you make your decision.

Should I go for Nexon EV, Mahindra XUV 3XO or Brezza 1.5 for 700km monthly running. I prefer automatic transmission.

•1h

With a monthly running of around 700km and a preference for an automatic, a petrol makes more sense. At this usage, the cost advantage of an EV is limited, and the Nexon EV only makes sense if you have home charging and significantly higher running. The Brezza 1.5 petrol automatic is a solid, reliable choice, but the 3XO offers a turbo petrol and better highway performance. Both cars use a 6-speed torque converter automatics which are smooth and well-suited to city driving. If your usage is primarily on the highway, the XUV 3XO is a better fit, but in mostly city use the Brezza will be more efficient.

I currently own a H'ness CB350 which is causing me some discomfort even after upgrading its seat. The Mumbai roads are further giving me a hard time and I am thinking of upgrading to an ADV bike for city purpose under a budget of approximately Rs. 5 lakh. A pillion also accompanies me occasionally, however, I ride solo. Which bike should I upgrade to and should I even upgrade it right now or wait?

The Royal Enfield Himalayan 450 is a fantastic Swiss army knife of a motorcycle and will serve your needs well. It has sublime suspension comfort and its spacious ergonomics are great for carrying two people. Coming from a CB350, its liquid-cooled 452cc engine will also seem like a pretty substantial jump up in terms of performance. We'd wholeheartedly recommend splurging for the cross spoke laced wheels which bring in the convenience of tubeless tyres and even so, you'll be well under your budget. If you want to stick with Honda then we'd advise you to wait for the XR300 models to become available in dealers on a widespread basis (which will take 4-6 months) and then take a test ride of these to see if they are up your alley. Do bear in mind that the Himalayan is a proper adventure bike which means it will have better comfort and capability but will be significantly heavier, whereas the XR300s are focused, lightweight dualsport machines which will be less comfortable in terms of seating.

I'm planning to purchase my first motorcycle and have narrowed down my options to the Bajaj Pulsar N160 SS and Dominar 250. My primary usage will be short daily commutes of approximately 5-6 km one way in Hyderabad's traffic (around 12km two way), with occasional longer rides. I'm a relatively new rider, so low-speed usability, manoeuvrability and ease of handling matter to me. The N160 SS appeals to me because of its lighter weight, Crawl Tech, TFT and city-friendly characteristics. However, the Dominar 400 has been my dream motorcycle for the past ten years, ever since it was launched in India while I was still in school. While the Dominar 400 remains my dream bike, the Dominar 250 seems like a reasonable compromise for my primarily urban use, offering some of that Dominar experience without going straight for the 400. I've ridden the Dominar 400 and found it surprisingly manageable and planted, but I haven't been able to test-ride the Dominar 250 because dealerships don't have test-ride units. I've also heard that the Dominar 250 lacks low-end urgency, requires frequent gear changes in slow traffic and is relatively heavy for city use. On the other hand, my uncle, who has owned a Dominar 400 for years and uses it in Hyderabad, has suggested that the Dominar 250 could be a reasonable choice for my requirements. The Dominar 250 is currently quoted at approximately Rs. 2.42 lakh (on-road), compared with around Rs. 1.86-1.94 lakh for the N160 SS. Given my usage, beginner experience and long-standing desire to own a Dominar, would you recommend the N160 SS as the more sensible long-term choice, or is the Dominar 250 a motorcycle that I could realistically grow into and enjoy despite its compromises? I would particularly appreciate your thoughts on low-speed tractability, bumper-to-bumper traffic, manoeuvrability for a beginner, and whether the Dominar's additional weight and cost are justified for someone whose riding will primarily be urban.

There's no doubt that the Bajaj Dominar 250 will fit the bill well for your needs as a first-time motorcyclist. However, what stops us from recommending it wholeheartedly is that the smaller Dominar sells in extremely microscopic numbers which means sometimes you'll be waiting a long time for a small part, leaving your bike out of action which is never a good thing. Truth be told, the Dominar 400 (especially since it is now powered by a downsized 349cc motor) is a perfectly acceptable first bike and since you have had an inclination towards the Dominar for a long time, why not go ahead and scratch and that itch! The only caveat here would be that the Dominar is a hefty machine, weighing 190kg, which can catch you off-guard at slow-speed scenarios but in time, you'll get used to it. On the other hand, if you don't want to deal with the extra weight and purchasing cost of the Dominar 400, then the Pulsar N160 SS is a very different but nonetheless, a great option for a beginner. It has a peppy engine, predictable handling, good comfort and comes with all the latest gizmos and gadgets that people these days want their two-wheelers to be festooned with. Not to mention, it will also be far more fuel efficient than the Dominar. These are 2 very different bikes which will give you starly different experiences so its best you take a test ride and see which one you're leaning towards more before you make your decision.

I am a first-time motorcycle buyer looking for a bike in the Rs 2.0-2.5 lakh range. I am 5ft 3in, so I need something with a lower seat height and manageable weight for comfortable use. My usage will be around 80% in the city, with occasional 300-400 km highway trips. I have shortlisted the TVS Ronin, Yamaha XSR 155 and Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Which would be the most suitable option for me, and are there any other bikes I should consider at my height?

Your research is absolutely spot on, and the three options you have shortlisted will surely serve your intended purpose quite well. However, which one is right for you is a decision only you can make because all three are quite different to ride.The Yamaha XSR155 is the lightest and sportiest of this trio and will be faster than the other two. What it will not be is as comfortable as the relaxed Hunter and Ronin, which score quite highly in terms of overall comfort. These two have mellow, torque-rich engines which will make for an altogether different, more laid-back riding experience.Given the magnitude of difference between all three, deciding between them warrants a test ride.

Which bike should I choose between the new KTM 390 Adventure, KTM 390 Duke and Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450? I am upgrading from a TVS Ronin 225, and I feel it lacks power on highways, especially while overtaking. I am also looking for a new riding experience. I am 5'3" tall and weigh 75kg. Please guide me on which bike would suit me best, considering my height, riding comfort and performance. Or would it be better to stick with the TVS Ronin?

•3d

Given your stature and the fact that you're coming from a Ronin, we'd recommend you choose between the 350cc KTM 390 Duke and the Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 you've shortlisted. While both bikes have similar peak power outputs and pricing, they're poles apart to ride, so make sure you get a test ride before you go ahead with your purchase. The 390 Duke has sublime handling, great features and its 349cc engine loves chasing the redline but in day-to-day usage it feels like the machine that needs to be worked harder. Its suspension is also quite stiff (not harsh but definitely not plush) and there are quite a few vibes from the engine at almost all touch points no matter the revs you're at. If you don't care about refinement or comfort too much, and want all-out sporting thrills at a reasonable budget, then the 350cc Duke is something you should consider. If instead, you want your next purchase to be a bit more rounded to balance both usability and performance, then the RE Guerrilla 450 should be on your radar. The Guerrilla's 452cc engine's torquey nature makes it far more effortless to ride both in the city and on the highway, and its chassis is set up well for brisk road riding. It also has a lower 780mm perch (compared to the KTM's 800mm one) and its suspension is also set up to deal with road imperfections better. Ofcourse, it lacks the outright speed, handling, as well as the finessed electronics of the KTM, but for some people, this will actually be a plus point. Like we said at the outset, these are two very different bikes, so before making your decision, ensure you take a thorough test ride.
