I still remember the first time I rode an electric scooter. The quiet hum instead of a roar, the instant push of torque, it felt like the future had landed in my hands. Today, TVS has brought that future a little closer with the launch of the TVS Orbiter Electric Scooter, priced at just ₹99,900 (inclusive of the PM e-Drive subsidy).

Design That Turns Heads

The Orbiter isn’t trying to be loud, it’s trying to be practical. The clean, youthful lines, glowing LED strip across the apron, and the tall 14-inch alloy wheels give it a modern stance. At 112 kg, it feels light enough to glide yet sturdy enough to handle India’s bumpy city roads.

Features for City Life

What surprised me most were the thoughtful features. Cruise control on a scooter? Hill hold assist for those dreaded flyovers where traffic crawls? And a roomy 34-litre under-seat storage that can swallow two helmets. Add smartphone connectivity, regenerative braking, and reverse assist, and you can see how TVS designed this with daily riders in mind.

How It Stacks Up Against Rivals

In a market crowded with Ola S1 X, Ather Rizta, and Bajaj Chetak, the TVS Orbiter Electric Scooter makes its case with a longer 158 km claimed range and features you usually don’t see at this price. Where Ola pushes aggressive pricing and Ather leans on premium feel, the Orbiter strikes a balance between affordability and practicality.
