Hello, I'm planning to buy a scooter. Can you suggest the best petrol and electric scooter options with a stylish design, high mileage, and excellent suspension? Also, where should I buy it? I live in a district in Telangana. Should I buy it from Hyderabad or from my local area to get a better price?
In the petrol scooter space, the frontrunners are Honda Activa 110/125, TVS Jupiter 110/125 and Suzuki Access 125. All three are proven, comfortable, fuel-efficient and very practical, so whichever one you choose, you can't realistically go wrong. In the Electric scooter space, our top recommendations are TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Vida VX2 and Ather Rizta models. Again, these are proven and reliable machines from top-tier brands with good service reach across India, so pick the variant that suits your needs best. It would be prudent to wait a couple of months for the upcoming EL platform-based family electric scooter, which will give you the slick experience Ather scooters are known for but at a more digestible price. If you have secure charging at home, then an EV will help you save on your running costs greatly compared to an ICE scooter. Depending on your preference of powertrain, we'd recommend a test ride of the options recommended before you go ahead with your purchase to see which one suits your needs best.
I currently own a 2007 Hero Honda Glamour and want to buy a new two-wheeler. I am confused between the Honda Activa, TVS Jupiter, Suzuki Access and an electric scooter. My monthly fuel budget is around Rs. 1,500. My office is 16 km from home, and I commute there three days a week. Please suggest the best option considering running costs, reliability, fuel efficiency, low maintenance and long-term ownership.
With your monthly budget for fuel, you can definitely purchase a petrol scooter, and with gentle riding, you may even be able to come under that mark. If you want the typical strengths of a family scooter combined with peppy performance, then the Suzuki Access is to be considered over the 110cc TVS Jupiter and Honda Activa, otherwise the 110s will perform just fine. If you really want the lowest running cost and have home charging, an electric scooter like the TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather Rizta, and Vida VX2 will cut your monthly running costs quite significantly, and maintenance, too, is minimal. Given your low usage, the fuel savings over a petrol-powered scooter will take some time to recoup. And in case of a spontaneous situation presenting itself, fuelling up a petrol-powered scooter is a much faster process than juicing up an e-scooter's battery. Take a call between the two based on your usage pattern and then make your decision.
I have been riding a scooty for the past 9-10 years, and I am now thinking of purchasing a bike, but I don’t know how to ride one yet. I travel about 20 km daily to the office and occasionally go on long rides with my friends. I am 22 years old, 6′2″ tall, and weigh 55 kg. My budget is ₹1.5–2 lakh. I am thinking of the RE Hunter but I am worried whether it will suit me, considering my height, so my second choice is the Xpulse 210. My mother is urging me to buy the TVS SP 125 for its high mileage, and a colleague advised me to buy the Ather Chetak. I am very confused 😵 and hope you can help me sort things out. Thank you!
Since you aren't familiar with the clutch/gear shift coordination that a motorcycle will demand. We would recommend you first learn these basics under the guidance of a professional or a trusted relative/friend. The Royal Enfield Hunter 350 may seem like a small machine, but it can comfortably accommodate larger riders without a hassle. Coming to the Xpulse 210, this is a lighter and taller machine than the Hunter and will also have a very different riding experience. The Honda SP125 will undoubtedly give you excellent fuel economy, but it can't compete with the Hunter and Xpulse in terms of performance or road presence. We'd recommend a test ride of all three before you make your purchase, as that will help you make an informed decision. However, if you think that riding a motorcycle is too complicated, and you want to stick with a scooter. It makes sense to go with proven options in the ICE and EV segments like TVS Jupiter, Honda Activa, Suzuki Access and TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather Rizta and Vida VX2, respectively.
