- TVS is currently the only mainstream two-wheeler manufacturer that offers both electric and ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) scooters in its portfolio. On one hand, you have the Jupiter, a well-established, practical family scooter that’s been giving the Honda Activa a run for its money. So it’s definitely a potent offering. However, its ‘sensibility’ quotient is under threat, thanks to the ever-increasing fuel prices.
That’s where the iQube Electric comes in. The new Fame-II subsidies have made it a lot more affordable, pitting it squarely against ICE scooters, in this case, the Jupiter. But is it really practical enough to replace the everyday ICE scooter in your garage? We decided to put it through the ultimate litmus test, and here’s what we found:

I really liked the way how the complete review was done in detail over a conversation and playing roles, very good ✋
This man can convince you to buy a used Jupiter for its showroom price 🙃 Practical review
I was about to buy a bag for my laptop but after watching this video I bought myself an iQube.
Nice sense of humour 👍
So how was your experience so far.
😂😂
Thoroughly enjoyed this review... Highlight was watching the 'moms' sitting behind 😂
It is mentioned that the charging cable cost is included in on road price. But in reality in Coimbatore showroom they are charging extra around Rs. 6000/-
Complaint to TVS. Send email
The charger is sold separately and is mentioned in company website. While booking iqube it will give three options for chargers and we need to choose one which is in addition to vehicle cost

70-80km in Eco mode might be the range when new, but what about a 3 year old electric scooter? Wouldn't battery efficiency go down with repeated charges? What if there's then a need to go 2-up in Sport mode given the extra weight, this may not even give 40km. Feel like products like the Ola S1 Pro are one answer to long-term range anxiety, at least on paper. I see my next scooter as an EV for sure, but waiting till there's at least a reasonable buffer between real-world range and my usage.
Why U guys are not Comparing IC scooters with the likes of Ampere Magnus Pro, Hero Optima, PureEV entrance Neo or ePluta7G ?
Battery replacement of ather 450x costs 75k here in kerala. And even a small accident can damage the whole battery and repairing isn't possible at all. Replacement is the only solution. And have compulsory paid service in every year, have to choose the subscription plan for the connected tech, extra payment for placing charging system in the home etc. So buying an EV scooter isn't a safe choice as of now.
Ather started it it but I think Ola and Simple (when it actually goes into production) will take the EV game much higher. That begs the question do Bajaj and TVS need to up their game? I very much think so.
Companies like Ola will loot india until main players come to e bike segment😅.. Yamaha, honda and ktm is working on swappable battery and Ola scooter global version also has swappable battery but in india they fixed it to make money... (no resale value on bikes due to fixed batteries)
Bajaj, tvs, honda and yamaha are not idiots... They know how market works and all these companies have openly said india electric system for transportation is not ready.. Don't think that these companies are not capable of producing better e bikes, You need to understand india still uses coal for electricity and government needs to bring regulations on charging stations still.. When Indian government doesn't get money from petrol how will they run govt? They will add separate taxes for electric stations 😂😂..
@@THUGPUTIN I do agree with you on most parts. I never said they are not capable. Most e bikes/scooters only offer fixed batteries. It not like they cant be changed, it wont be possible from an user end that's all. Problem with big players is they normally play safe offering 'just enough' with 'take it or leave attitude', while new players/start ups have to do max to get noticed . Etergo does offer swappable battery I know, but India is a price sensitive market and any little money that can be squeezed out, manufacturers will do it.
Without Ather doing what they did with 450, we'd still be having Chinese knock offs being rebranded and sold in India. So competition is good, it forces rivals to up their game and that is exactly what I am hoping for.
And about India being ready for EVs, well I agree on that too, but unless the sales justify, companies wont pour in big money on infrastructure, they are interdependent. And about our govt squeezing out citizens on fuel prices, they very well likely will do it with Eletrcity or Hydrogen or anything ppl will use. When people dont want to speak up or shut the ones who want to speak up, what else do you think will happen?
@@TheLazyWandererMys 8 years ago elon musk promised swappable battery due to which Tesla took off (that event is on youtube and his famous quote "so the decision you need to make is, do you prefer free or fast") ..fast forward 2021 Tesla doesn't have free charge station and fast battery swappable station... 2021 Tesla has hit line where it can't do anything innovative(it's autonomous driving hasn't seen any improvement) and accessible/affordable Tesla is nowhere to be seen.. People needs to wait and respect branded auto/2 wheeler makers instead of believing brands like Ola.. Startups like simple one and ather 400 didn't promise anything that they can't launch or provide but where is Ola charging stations? Ola is not a startup and we won't have a single charging station from Ola during launch.. Showing graphics video of charging stations is easy bro.. Like I said, brands like yamaha, honda, tvs and ktm don't sell products in india without market research or system.. Example recently yamaha said they'll focus on 150cc to 250cc premium bikes because India is ready to buy it even if it's price is bit high for usd forks.. These brands will not launch something that people won't buy or ready to buy it.. Tesla and Ola can play hit or miss(trial and error)game but reputed brands can't because if there electric bike/car failed then the whole reputation goes down.. One of the reasons toyota, honda and suzuki have not entered the market fully...
@@TheLazyWandererMys wait at least till 2023 when it comes to electric car/bike in india... I'm not stopping anyone but I'm just saying it's too fast for electric bike to be reliable or accessible in india... Yes, Ola is just new ather which will sell more and give notice to big brands that india is ready..
@@haiwanroar6416 Yes I agree it will take time. Please don't mistake for EV promoter. I very much like ICE engine and its convenience and the driving/riding pleasure.
My point was purely from 'EV adoption' perspective, the adoption is interdependent. Companies will do their lil bit for early adopters, when numbers rise, that's when they will be convinced to invest more.
Mr Gadkari had announced that most petrol bunks will start offering EV charging in India, but that has yet to start to my knowledge and India being mostly a bright sunny country, Solar energy could greatly be harvested too. But if you live in a city/town in houses than apartments with access to a plug point, charging EVs overnight wont be an issue and with most of them giving 60-70kms of range atleast, it could very well last for 2 days min for most users. There is a lot of work to be done indeed but we do need to start somewhere. :)
They say battery cost is 30-40K now. After 4 years, it will be 15K. How is that even possible.. We all use Duracell or Eveready AA and AAA batteries. Although it's technology , usage has improved in the last 1o years, the battery price is double for a low technology like that. And you guys just like that say after 4 years a 3 KW battery will cost 15K. That 70K saving will just go in battery replacement and charger cable :) itself !!!
For this I say a complete comparison review. Complete as in covering all the points.
Superb practical video...
Instead 50k , consider 25k km city ride for 3yrs, that's more realistic, so the fuel cost will come to half 42-44k and further. Whereas EV cost would be 13k for electricity + 15000 battery cost minimum then total come to 28k. So definitely EV NOT worth at the moment for two reasons 1. Lack of Charging points in metro cities and corporate societies does not have seperate meters for flat owners 2. You can't consider EV for long rides for the 1st reason itself. These two flexibilities are the road blockers inthe EV sales.
3rd. Battery quality will degrade over 25k km ride. It won't give similar economy over a period of time
Battery quality degrades, that’s the huge drawback.
Bravo! Now that's a thinking man's review! Great one guys.
Still going for a 125cc Jupitor makes more sense until electric scooters gets more better.
I just want to understand on what basis icube has been priced the way it is? With that Measly range and power figure, no fast charging... What are we being asked to pay for???
Brand name premium i guess 🤔
They dont want to kill their petrol cash cow
Superb presentation 👏👌👍. Role play and free style conversation , a big salute for that part 😍. Overall, fantastic & 5 star 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stuff.
Lpg cylinder is now 920rs, earlier it was 419rs in 2014.
Petrol was 70-75Rs and now in some cities more than 115rs. Diesel too is much expensive as compare to 2014.
Medicines, Refine Oil, Musturd Oil, Rajma, Dal, Chana, Bread, Milk, Eggs, Butter, Honey, Mixture, Tea, Coffee, Sweets etc etc everything is almost double the Price as Compare to 2014.
Scooter, Bikes, Car, AC, Washing Machine, Tv, Fridge, Juicer, Microwave etc etc are now available in Much Higher Prices as Compare to 2014.
My Question is How come Battery worth Rs 40k now will Cost around 15k in Next 4 Years?
How can you be so sure abt it? What if we get the same battery in 80k to 1 Lakh in next 4 to 5 Years?
What was cost of a 5inch mobile with big battery in 2014 , there is two things one comodity and technology, comodity gets costly in time due to inflation where technology gets cheap bcz of access supply and demand , battery is technology which will be cheap as time pass
The best way to do a comparison 🔥
#Zigwheels, 🔥 as usual, Karthikeya Singhee is on top of his game as always
I would watch any review/comparison that has Jon Snow in it. Long live Lord Snow (Kathikeya.) Love his content
You missed the maitainance cost of jupiter and the you interchanged the mileage of city and highway.
Can i convert my Jupiter to a iqube with battery and motor? Please respond
A complete review especially the moms part Cause I'm buying it just for mom
R EV's good in hilly areas with two persons on board???
I can see that black one.... Backyard####🙌setup
Great well rounded review zigwheels
50000 km in 3 years comparison doesnt make sense as it comes down to 45 km run daily which is very rare.
Amazing presentation, Gaurav.
I own a Jupiter zx new 2021 but it's average is just about 40-45 kmpl
Which all cities, I qube is available?
The volume of the music in the background is too loud!
Now imagine ola or simple one In place of iqube 🔥
Ola has murderous scooter
Thanks for the update
Electric not the future... Should be hybrid technology... Petrol plus electric...
Hearing ICE as “ice” is awkward for me. We used to call IC Engine in our classes
Top review. Top content
No Matter how much you try to push the iQube into the market, it is not a decent EV. The range will always be a turn off.
iQube is pretty bad
Ola & Simple Energy is the one to go
@@vikhneshar104 arre!! U give good replies as well?? Good to know that. Yes you are on point... this is what I wanted to mean in my other comment.
@@shaheb007 Their is nothing wrong with my reply
You are just a kid trying hard to show off in comment section
@@vikhneshar104 na na... you cannot be wrong. I was just born yesterday. 😊
@@shaheb007 they dont want to kill their petrol cash cow
You guys have chosen the wrong EV for comparison. Seriously, iQube?? I thought you guys were vehicle reviewers.
Lets all make something clear
Pls don't go but an iQube
since it is the worst ev that you can buy at that price
Wait for the Ola or the Simple Energy
I agree to some extent but tvs offers a sense of calm whereas ola and simple are start up and that comes with their own risk
The Regen kills your pleasure of riding scooter in most of the EV scooters, period
4.04 sec.....hub motor khatam ...go with mid drive s1
Wait a minute has the price of the lead acid batteries seen a decrease in price and then how can it down the road lithium ion be cheaper. Its just a gimmick, apply the same taxes for the IC vehicle the word cheap has to have a different meaning and next comes the charging, will that be cheap and how many sockets and how many station would that require, after all it will take minimum of 10 mins to 10-20% battery, where as you can have tank filled up in less than 5 minutes
Please review the Ola S1
yummy vid guys. good work
Wait & compare wit Ola & Simple One
Racing part semma comedy
Range?
Charging time?
For Metro city EV is good but in rural areas EV is not an option..
If you stay in an apartment, you won’t find any charging station, and can’t even install as society opposes.
Good joke, This proof that the night cocktail is left in the morning
Everything is great. But how about long rides inevitable in covid
Here main point is daily usage. Not some emergencies. So 80km is almost enough.
I have JUPITER zx bs6 😁
that W124 tho!
It was shot in my Pune
Finally TVS thinks abt promoting ICube
I qube 's torque =trector's torque
Sooper good 👌
The music overlapping voice is very annoying tbh
RV 400 vs pulsar
Jupiter ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
#weneedbloopers 😂😂
Sponsored video by TVS? OLA fever
Le Mans start 😂
Come on!!! It takes 6 hours to charge for a range of 75kms.... it takes 3 minutes max to fill a complete tank of a petrol scooter!!! Time is money man!!!! Time is money!!!
It's built for getting charged during night time. If you don't need to sleep then it's not for you
If time is that valuable to you then why are you riding a scooter
@@vikhneshar104 😹😹
@@vikhneshar104 because it saves more time than traveling by public transport my dear 😅
It saves money and time (if u charge it at night)
I qube won't last for 4 yrs
One more paid content from TVS I don't know how these guys promoting iqube
Dude really need to spend 1.20+ for ev which having a 80km range
#Zigwheel just give me one answer why this comparison has not done before ola and simple lunch???????? 😏😏😏
Average more iQube honi chahiye eco mode me 200 km
Kon chlta hai bhai itta scooter ko ek din mei
Clearly a Sponsored video ! 😂😂
