Questions you may find useful

I want to buy an electric scooter for nearly 30 km of daily travel. My budget is around Rs. 1.45 lakh. I am confused between Vida VX2 Plus and Chetak 3503. I also looked for Ather Rizta S Base which has low range but it is out of my budget. For TVS IQube, I looked for 3.5kwh base model that was around Rs. 1.49 lakh but I have heard of some issues with it during rainy days and it does not support fast charging. Vida VX2 Plus is the cheapest of all but I have heard about its AUX issues, build quality of switches, app glitches. For Chetak, I have heard of its battery issues and that, it does not support fast charging for 3503. Please suggest which EV would be suitable for daily city use in this budget. My priorities are good reliability, low maintenance and good range.
