The electric two-wheeler market has witnessed a significant update as the TVS iQube S has been launched in India with a larger 4.7 kWh battery pack. This new addition from TVS to the lineup gives the electric scooter a substantial boost in its claimed riding range, catering to riders who demand more distance between charges.
Priced competitively at Rs. 1.37 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the upgraded iQube S aims to solidify its position in the premium family scooter segment. Below is a detailed look at the top highlights and specifications of the newly launched variant.
The primary highlight of the new TVS iQube S is its power source. The scooter is now equipped with a high-capacity 4.7kWh battery. Thanks to this larger battery pack, the new iQube S delivers a claimed IDC-certified range of 175km on a single charge.
This marks a considerable improvement over the 145km range offered by the outgoing 3.5kWh model. TVS has introduced this larger battery pack to make the scooter more appealing to commuters who regularly cover longer distances and want fewer charging stops during the week.
While the battery capacity has seen a major upgrade, the core propulsion system remains familiar.
The iQube S continues to feature a clean and family-oriented design language. However, TVS has also refreshed the visual appeal of the scooter by introducing two new dual-tone colour options – Purple Beige and Blue Beige. Apart from these fresh colour additions, the overall styling and bodywork remain unchanged.
When it comes to technology and convenience, the scooter is well-equipped.
Accommodating a larger battery naturally impacts the weight of the vehicle. The addition of the larger battery pack has resulted in a slight increase in the kerb weight, which now stands at 128.8kg.
Despite the weight increase, the core structural components and hardware have been carried over from the standard version. Cycle parts remain unchanged and include telescopic front forks and twin rear shock absorbers. The scooter rolls on 12-inch wheels, and the braking setup comprises a front disc and a rear drum brake to handle stopping duties.

What is the riding range of the updated TVS iQube S? The new iQube S delivers a claimed IDC-certified range of 175km on a single charge.
