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.

Purely from a VFM standpoint, the Vida VX2 will have the Ather Rizta and TVS iQube beat because Hero has priced its EVs very well, especially if bought via the BaaS (Battery as a Subscription) model. However, price is just one part of the equation and to properly gauge between these three which would be the best fit for you, we'd recommend a thorough test ride to evaluate comfort, practicality, storage space, performance and whether the feature-set is to your liking or not.

Within your budget, there are only two EVs from reputed brands available, like the Vida (Hero) VX2 Go 2.2 and TVS Orbiter V2 (3.1kWh battery). These have enough range for a 25km daily loop and will surely help reduce your running costs to a great extent. If you have a secure charging location, then opting for an EV definitely makes sense. They have gentle but surefooted performance, and to decide between these two, take a test ride before you make your decision.If, however, you are not keen on making the switch to an EV, then sticking with proven options like Honda Activa 110, TVS Jupiter 110 and Suzuki Access 125 makes sense. The Activa and Jupiter are slightly more frugal than the Access, which consequently has zippier performance. All three are proven products, and you should go for the one you gel with the most on your test ride.

The Ultraviolette X-47 base variant is a well-rounded option for your needs, and it will definitely not only reduce your running and maintenance costs, but also the effort needed to ride a motorcycle in stop-and-go traffic since there's no clutch to modulate or gears to shift.Coming to the software glitches and navigation issues, while Ultraviolette has made progress with updates and bug fixes that are usually quick, you could still face occasional niggles on such a tech-heavy machine. If absolute reliability and zero fuss are your top priorities, a petrol alternative like the TVS Apache RTX 300 or Hero Xpulse 210 is worth considering.It will all hinge on what sort of riding experience you prefer and whether you really are ready to make the switch to an Electric bike. A test ride of all three should help you make your decision.

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.
