The TVS iQube wasn't exactly the runaway success that the company was hoping it would be, but it was still a well-rounded product. Now, TVS has given it more range and more features and has introduced it in three variant choices. In terms of range and performance, the standard and S models get a claimed range of 100km, thanks to a 3.4kWh battery and a top speed of 78 km/h. The ST model gets a bigger 4.5kWh battery, a claimed range of 140 km, and a top speed of 82 km/h.
The iQube ST can be fully charged in 4
hours and 6 minutes with a 1.5kW charger, while the standard and S models take
4 hours and 30 minutes for a full charge, using a 650W charger – the optional
900W charger brings that time down to 3 hours.
In terms of features, the standard model
gets a 5-inch colour TFT screen, the S model gets a larger 7-inch screen, and
the ST model gets a 7-inch touchscreen. The screen and its functions can also
be controlled via a joystick on the handlebar. The ST variant also gets more
under-seat storage, at 32 litres.
Bluetooth connectivity via the TVS iQube
app allows for live vehicle tracking, navigation, service reminders, and
notifications from your smartphone, among other connected features. The new
iQube also comes with Alexa integration. The standard variant is priced at Rs
98,564 (on-road, Delhi), while the S variant costs Rs 1.08 lakh (on-road,
Delhi). Prices of the ST variant will be revealed at a later date, although
bookings for all three variants are open now.
