Gravton Motors Quanta vs Piaggio Vespa Comparison

Hyderabad-based EV start-up Gravton Motors had launched the Gravton Quanta electric scooter at an introductory price of Rs 99,000 (ex-showroom). The Gravton Quanta electric scooter was under development since 2016 with the frame, motor casing and battery pack locally developed. The cells and the magnet for the motor are imported, says the company. Gravton says the design of the Quanta electric scooter is aimed to appeal to a wider audience in both urban and rural markets.

The Piaggio Vespa is a fun scooter, with a likeable old-school design that has been around for almost five decades. It offers decent performance, has a stiff ride quality. It handles well too but is now getting a little long in the tooth, with Piaggio not having made any recent and significant updates in the last few years. Despite decent dynamics, the brakes lack bite, and the scooter is on the expensive side, even for 150 cc scooter models.
