Pros Cons of TVS iQube

Pros

  • Loaded with modern features
  • Decent range
  • Well-proportioned scooter

Cons

  • Unavailibilty in all markets
  • Lacks variants
  • Pricy proposition

Verdict

The TVS iQube is TVS Motor Company's electric scooter designed for customers looking to replace conventional scooters with an electric scooter. The iQube certainly makes a strong impression.

What it requires is more performance, although it does achieve its claimed top speed of 78 kmph in Power mode quite effortlessly.

Pros Cons TVS Apache RTR 160

Pros

  • Offers a fun and peppy ride with three riding modes: Rain, Urban, and Sport
  • Lightweight at 138 kg, providing agile handling and easy maneuverability in city traffic
  • Fully digital instrument cluster with SmartXonnect system and Bluetooth connectivity for modern features like navigation

Cons

    • Engine shows its age, with vibrations setting in after 80 kmph
    • Ride quality feels too soft, and the front suspension bottoms out over sharp bumps
    • Ergonomics may feel cramped for taller and heavy-set riders, limiting comfort on longer rides

Verdict

The TVS Apache RTR 160 2V remains a fun and agile motorcycle, especially in urban settings, with a peppy engine and lightweight frame. However, the engine’s age shows with noticeable vibrations at higher speeds, and its softer suspension affects ride quality on rough roads. While it’s still a good option for those looking for a simple, no-nonsense ride, the marginal price difference with the more advanced Apache RTR 160 4V makes the latter a better choice in this segment.
