Pros Cons of TVS Orbiter

Pros

  • Massive 34-litre underseat storage
  • Stability of the 14-inch front wheel
  • Accessible 760 mm seat height
  • The BaaS pricing structure
  • The clear LCD dashboard

Cons

  • The capped 68 kmph top speed
  • No front disc brake
  • Polarising boxy design
  • V2 variant takes 4 hours to charge
  • Windscreen issues

Verdict

By capping the top speed at 68 kmph, TVS sacrificed highway capability to maximise the Orbiter’s battery range and keep its running costs low. The addition of the 14-inch front wheel handles broken city roads beautifully, and the massive 34-litre boot acts like a secondary trunk. If you want a fast, aggressively styled weekend toy, this one is not the right option. But if you want an incredibly practical, dependable daily workhorse that gets you across the city safely, the TVS Orbiter stands out.

Preetam concludes,

“For anyone looking at a decent range, funky design and affordable pricing, the Orbiter in its current form still makes sense, more so for gig workers who need the space and practicality it offers and don’t really need more than the performance it packs.”

Pros Cons Bajaj Chetak

Pros

  • Excellent build quality
  • Good performance
  • Nice ride quality

Cons

  • Could have had better range
  • Expensive
  • Could have had more features

Verdict

The Chetak certainly is a fitting tribute to a legendary name from Bajaj. In electric form, it's quite a likeable scooter, and it comes across as a well-built, well-finished scooter with all the features and gizmos associated with a new-age electric scooter. The only drawback for now, is its availability, but that's something which is likely to change over the next year or so. Its design is its biggest strength, coupled with its easy rideability
