Since your budget is under Rs 1 lakh, pick a 100-110cc commuter from the likes of the Hero HF / Passion Plus, Honda Shine 100, Bajaj Platina 110 and TVS Sport / Star City Plus / Radeon models. The 100cc models will, of course, return more fuel efficiency than the 110s, and if you must have the lowest running costs possible, then opting for the smaller machines makes sense. All of these bikes have been around for a very long time and are hardy, reliable and time-tested products, so no matter which one you choose, you can't really go wrong. Take test rides to help make your decision process a little easier.

Since your daily run is quite long and you value comfort and fuel efficiency over all else, we'd recommend you stick with a commuter motorcycle. In your budget, if you want a bike that's comfortable over bad roads, then the Bajaj Platina 110 is our recommendation. Its thickly padded seat, pliant suspension and neutral ergonomics will keep you comfortable for longer distances over all sorts of roads. The Platina's one big drawback is that it cannot be had with a disc brake, and its drums provide only adequate performance.In that vein, it would be prudent to look at the TVS Radeon. The Radeon has similar strong suits as the Platina, but it can be had with a front disc brake on its top variant, which is the one we'd recommend for reliable stopping power over a longer duration.Take test rides of both to see which one you resonate with more before you make your decision.

The TVS Radeon is a wonderful commuter which will return great fuel economy and be hassle-free to maintain in the long run. While it may look like your run-of-the-mill commuter, it doesn't feel quite as mundane as its rivals. One point to note is that the Radeon's shocks work best if you are on the heavier side or if you ride two-up, so if you are a skinnier rider, you may want to look elsewhere.If you do want something more comfortable, then the Bajaj Platina 110 is what you should be looking at in a similar price bracket.Take test rides of both machines to see which one you find more comfortable before you go ahead with your purchase.

No, Vespa currently doesn't retail any electric scooter models in India. The Ultraviolette Tesseract is due to be launched in the first quarter of 2027 and, on paper at least, it has some solid specifications which will force the industry to sit up and take notice.If you want an EV that is classically styled, the Bajaj Chetak is a good option. The original Chetak's design was inspired by the Vespas of yesteryear, and that reminiscence carries forward even today. What helps matters further is that the Chetak is a proven offering from a reputed brand, and it comes in multiple variants to suit different needs. Take a test ride of the Chetak and see if it is up your alley.

Both the Ather Rizta and the TVS iQube ST are comfortable and reliable scooters, so either one would be a sensible choice. Considering your daily commute of 100-120 km, it is worth opting for the larger battery variants of both models.The Ather Rizta has more features and a larger, better-shaped boot that makes it easier to carry everyday items along with the portable charger. The TVS iQube ST, on the other hand, feels more conventional and is one of the easiest electric scooters to get used to, especially for riders switching from a petrol scooter.A test ride of both scooters should make the decision much easier. It is also worth considering the Bajaj Chetak, as it is another strong option in this segment.
