Hi I am planning to buy a ev scooter but confused between vida v1 pro and ather 450x HR..vida is around 1.5 right now in Bangalore which is around 30000 cheaper than ather..range of both are more or less same..i am looking for a long lasting reliable ev scooter which will give less trouble n less range anxiety..plz suggest..
Hats off to you Pradeep sir. Keeping Namma Bengaluru glowing 🤩🤩 The most distinct comparison which no one else have covered. Definately recommending your channel to all my friends 👍
That watter bottle and gas cylinder test really open my eyes. The Bajaj build quality is really amazing. For the bad roads in our area I still prefer chetak who has proven itself over the last 2 yrs ( unfortunately the chetak own by my friend was purchased from Kolkata as it is still not available in our area IMPHAL)
Thanks for the comparison @Pradeep, just wanted to know how is the suspension quality and road grip of Chetak, does the Chetak skid when braking or riding on bad roads ?
HEY pradeep hats off to the great work can help me choose btwn ather 450x and tvs iqube my daily city commute is approx 60-80kms and want a confortable ride and low on maintance. thanks for the help in advance
well done I had this question but no one was able to answer it you really did a good job. A real family scooter should be able to do all these things 👍
I am using Bajaj for 1yr run 18k plus kms i have spent 980rs for maintenance for disc pad front wheel bearing and some break sensor...in 3yrs my chetak is free ..i would have have liked it to have little bit more range and the weight should have been little less... It's very sturdy.. i always runs in sports mode .. even on pot holes road it's very comfortable... problem is we. During rains or slippery roads the vehicle will pull towards left due to the motor weight...tat every one should be careful about....i have made holes in the hand rail ..use it to tie anything with hook system on the rear seat...
Please do a video on impending investigation on ather for going above the price cap of 1.5l for fame ii, if u can. Hard to find info about it other than one financial times article. i think all ev scooters might come under the radar
It is like mobile phone early days situation, where cost of basic phone used to be 30K and very limited people bought. The EV market will pick up only when the price of scooter will be at +10% of ICE.
I am planning to buy an electric scooter but confused between so many options. I have no idea about real range, quality and capabilities of these scooters .......could you advice me which one is best????
Sir TVS iqube vs bounce infinity which one to go for, budget is not the problem but i like value for money product which after buying i should not regret at all, i live in mumbai
this are petrol scooter maker. All three less power high price and low range. ola Ather simple one much better than this three. but Excellent review pradeep
1. TVS has done a great job with suspension and shock absorbers. If you are above 30 and have back pain issues go for the tvs iqube. Dont think any further. 2. Vida v1: if you are a college going kid want a sporty looking scooter with removable battery which you can take to your home and charge go for Vida V1.
Please do a detailed video on Simple energy vision 1 factory and delivery date of simple one And more details on Fast charging of simple one like it has universal charging adopter , we can use athergrid to charge simple one?
Right now CCS is the standard charging port used by mist auto companies apart from tesla, In india almost every electric car sold comes with CCS charging port, Right now only ultraviolette is the only company comes with CCS charging port in two wheeler,
All EV manufacturers in India must take into account that the number plates are GREEN and that the paint job must compliment it. Nexon for eg. Black blue and green does not work at all.
Vida v1 issues Software Issues are 1) Bluetooth is not easily getting connected when you open app. 2) Odo meter reading difference in Vida v1 screen and Vida v1 mobile app. 3) Date is not automatically getting sync with server. 4) SOS is not working, even after configuring emergency contact in app. 5) Trips are getting captured incorrectly. Sometimes it skips trips and some times calculate incorrect kilometer which is 3 times of actual. 5) Android mobile app notification visible only if you open app. No real time notification (Toast message). 6) False Intruder alert. Mechanical Issues: 1) Front Disc is jam which is majorly impacting range and increasing pressure on EV Motor.
@pradeep bro : plz tell ur honest opinion. I am looking ev for my father.. shortlisted bw chetak ev and Vida v1 pro.. after flipkart offer both scooter is coming around same on road price infact vida is 5k cheaper around 1.20 L .. so which one to go .. plz suggest
Great video Pradeep. I have a slightly stupid question but how vulnerable are these IOT scooters to being hacked digitally or tracked? What if the servers of these companies go down like it happens with Google or Facebook sometimes?
Honestly, it can be hacked but, i don't know the benefits for hacking a scooter infotainment system. It's not like a phone where we store a lot of information and data. As said nothing no benefits for hacker. Even those that rely on servers are not like phones that main purpose is to get us connected; the software on scooters are only meant to collect so our ride data and sent it manufacturers for improvement and to our phone as well. There's also an incognito mode where all is connections are cut of but still working fine. Coz unlike phone the purpose of scooter is to get from point A to point B it's connection features are not that important unless it is stolen.
@@vlramnghaka Thanks for the reply sir, i take your point. But if the companies can increase range through OTA updates, they can also immobilise the vehicle. Or if someone hacks into the company's server, the hacker can disable the scooter right? Like Chinese hackers shut down the powerplant in Maharashtra in 2021?
@@raghav_c You're right but here's a little note. Not all Electric scooters are connected to Server. And at the point of immobilizing a vehicle there's a catch: To immobilized via software there must be a hardware that is directly controlled by the software (like the auto hold and hill hold) But there's always the key to reboot the system that's why i like Ather over Ola at safety standards. And i think Iqube, Chetak and Vida are fairly safe from hacking coz you know...no direct connection to internet & Servers. Speaking of increasing range with Software i am not really a fan of it. As we live is hilly areas If you increase the range i somehow directly or indirectly lowers the performance of the vehicle and thats a no go for hills. I always wanted an EV with Simple digital console but with a great performance. 97% of the time we are not benefited from the touch screens, Bluetooth, wifi, maps and other features. Especially maps useless for scooters that are limited within a city and its vacinity. Maps may be great for long rangers like the Ultraviolette F77, Mantis and Matter bikes.
@@vlramnghaka Learning greatly from your responses, will have to do my own homework vis a vis some points you made to understand better. What do you think of the Ampere Primus scooter? No feature packed touch screen, LFP battery with AC motor and bu now good brand reliability
@@raghav_c I never put my hands on that scooter so i cannot give you my experience on that. But based on the specs i think its a good scooter. But i am not sure the i will be able to handle hills with a pillion.
Hey Pradeep. You can do a comparison between Ola S1 and TVS iQube they are similarly priced and same range almost. And it’s what people are deciding between. It’s a practical comparison.
@@harshastrms Pradeep is not an Ola hater. He’s honest about his reviews. If that makes you think he hates Ola or makes you hate Ola then that’s a reflection of the brand not him. I own both an Ola and an ather. Both are amazing products but both are incomplete and thr ather doesn’t compete with Ola S1 the iqube does.
@@keerthikeerthana775 if you want a bit more performance and don’t mind minor issues in software and even hardware quality go with the S1 but if you wants a well balanced product and don’t mind a bit lesser performance I would really suggest yiu to for the iqube instead. The iqube seems like a proper reliable product for the price. The hub motor is extremely efficient so you’ll get the most reliable range out of it. But if you want something fun to ride and don’t mind the range. Please by the ather 450Plus or a used ather 450/450X whichever fits your budget because absolutely nothing handles like the ather and the ather us by far the most fun scooter you can ride on the road.
If we need to replace battery for 5yrs once. If 1kwh battery cost 15to 20k then 4kwh battery cost 60-80k. Is this not costly? Cost of vehicle is 1.4lk + 80k for replacement of batteries[for5yrs] + 80k for another 5yrs - 3lk for 10yrs !! Along with that electric bill is 500/month - 6k/yr & fpr 10yrs 60k 3.6lk overall for 10yrs !! This is huge !! I feel until 1kwh battery cost 5k, EV is not an option.
IN 10 YRS if 50 km run per day in a scooter with 45 kmpl for 10yrs petrol bill will be 2.2 lakh+1.1 lakh (scooter cost)+minimum maintenance 50k for 10 yrs. petrol scooter average running cost will be more in 10 yrs. if more running in ev the gap will be even more.
Bro talk about ather Scam Ather doing biggest Scam in EV industry Ather always collecting full amount for full capacity of battery Price from government subsidy and customer But in lower variant not giving the full usage Of battery locked the almost 30 percentage of Battery 450x and 450 Plus Both same capacity battery but customer usage capacity is different Ather not giving the 450X full amount bill In Ather showroom told ₹20000 will give separate bill on delivery time
1.Chetak is a good looking traditional scooter with less range minimal boot space compared to others in this range and high price for the product,the front boot like vespa gives is a plus .2. Iqube is a bad looking hub motor scooter which is competing with better motored scooters.3. Vida ticks all the box except the price .
Sir can you please do rapido on vida v1 pro i think a lot Of People would like to know the riding experience with person sitting behind and your experience after a long ride please sir

So much wasted time in video
Both presenter and video editor need to learn better.
Don't call it cheap, call it cost effective
Among other it is family man scooter within budget do support the content man @Haridas S @pradeeponwheels
Affordable
Then I am very cost effective.
Affordable ..😊
Hats off to you Pradeep sir. Keeping Namma Bengaluru glowing 🤩🤩
The most distinct comparison which no one else have covered. Definately recommending your channel to all my friends 👍
Thanks for the review, looking forward to buying Vida v1, I did a test ride last week
Thumba channagittu comparison, thank you Pradeep 👍
That watter bottle and gas cylinder test really open my eyes. The Bajaj build quality is really amazing. For the bad roads in our area I still prefer chetak who has proven itself over the last 2 yrs ( unfortunately the chetak own by my friend was purchased from Kolkata as it is still not available in our area IMPHAL)
The water can and cylinder demo is awesome❤
I love ur all ur work ur r doing . Keep it up. We will always there to support you.
Thank you Pradeep sir. So far there are only media reviews and no real world reviews for this fatefully delayed product 😊😊
This video is very useful for me....
With cylinder and water can
So thankful to you brother
We love you for that cylinder and water can
Thanks for the comparison @Pradeep, just wanted to know how is the suspension quality and road grip of Chetak, does the Chetak skid when braking or riding on bad roads ?
Great video, hope after was in there too
Thanks for the detailed information ☺️
Nice video bro....very practical and well explained 👌
Good comparison 👏 Hill test comparison please
Well done bro❤ keep rocking 🎉
Excellent comparison technical.
Excellent review pradeep
Awesome ❤ and detailed review bro 😎
Nice composition on point and practical 👌
Bro compression video of Vida 1pro vs ather450x
HEY pradeep hats off to the great work can help me choose btwn ather 450x and tvs iqube my daily city commute is approx 60-80kms and want a confortable ride and low on maintance. thanks for the help in advance
Great review Pradeep !
Pradeep Sir, bring a comparison with lastest Ather 450x Gen 3.1 vs Hero Vida V1 Pro.
well done I had this question but no one was able to answer it you really did a good job. A real family scooter should be able to do all these things 👍
Thank you
All and all era of startups as they are doing good and moving fast to bring change
Hello bro u said I qube, at her 450x hill climb review, please make it....
I am using Bajaj for 1yr run 18k plus kms i have spent 980rs for maintenance for disc pad front wheel bearing and some break sensor...in 3yrs my chetak is free ..i would have have liked it to have little bit more range and the weight should have been little less... It's very sturdy.. i always runs in sports mode .. even on pot holes road it's very comfortable... problem is we. During rains or slippery roads the vehicle will pull towards left due to the motor weight...tat every one should be careful about....i have made holes in the hand rail ..use it to tie anything with hook system on the rear seat...
We all kno that sports mode will be used straight away, yet content makers waste time with eco mode or some other BS mode.
How is the navigation map option?
"Can you carry the can?" challenge...😂😂 very nicely done.
Very good comparison.
Anna do tvs charging station review
Please do a video on impending investigation on ather for going above the price cap of 1.5l for fame ii, if u can. Hard to find info about it other than one financial times article. i think all ev scooters might come under the radar
Sir V1 pro ka real world range to 95 hai as per website
Why can't you do a video of bgauss d15
Great Effort Bro. Gas Cylinder & Water Can Demo Awesome.
Better to buy seconds nano, and keep rest of money for petrol expenses for next 3 to 5 yrs. Too expensive escooters.
Very unique and much needed comparison. What a disrespect it is going to be Bajaj Chetak by carrying cylinder on it.
It is like mobile phone early days situation, where cost of basic phone used to be 30K and very limited people bought. The EV market will pick up only when the price of scooter will be at +10% of ICE.
Bajaj should reconsider to widen the space for water cans, Gas cylinder atleast in the future upgrades.
Hey pradeep! Just want to correct you, Bajaj also did had a scooter in their lineup way back... It was the Bajaj Kristal.
what about bajaj sunny lol
And Blade also
I am planning to buy an electric scooter but confused between so many options. I have no idea about real range, quality and capabilities of these scooters
.......could you advice me which one is best????
Sir TVS iqube vs bounce infinity which one to go for, budget is not the problem but i like value for money product which after buying i should not regret at all, i live in mumbai
sir full comparison of vida and ather 🙏🙏🙏 very confused because both are the same price.... please give some peace to my bhatakthi aatma.... thank you
When is Uphill test for Ather?
Show us steep hill climb test with two person load
this are petrol scooter maker. All three less power high price and low range. ola Ather simple one much better than this three.
but
Excellent review pradeep
1. TVS has done a great job with suspension and shock absorbers.
If you are above 30 and have back pain issues go for the tvs iqube. Dont think any further.
2. Vida v1: if you are a college going kid want a sporty looking scooter with removable battery which you can take to your home and charge go for Vida V1.
Pradeep your review is really good and practical 😁
Thank you so much
bro make a fast charging video of vida
Do these scooters need an earthing in your house for charging them. Or just a normal switch will work, to charge them.
Good vedio...bro
Please do a detailed video on Simple energy vision 1 factory and delivery date of simple one
And more details on Fast charging of simple one like it has universal charging adopter , we can use athergrid to charge simple one?
Right now CCS is the standard charging port used by mist auto companies apart from tesla,
In india almost every electric car sold comes with CCS charging port,
Right now only ultraviolette is the only company comes with CCS charging port in two wheeler,
So many ads 😑
Bajaj gives not more than 70-75 I m using from last one year
Good comparison
Sir I qube range test??
1 Like from my side for using cylinder macha
Didn't like any of these when you have a good option to choose in same budget and it's Ather 450#
I booked Vida V1 Pro, the main reason was removable batteries!
Where as athergen4x & olas1 pro are top notch.🙏
Icube -ST will be better , Thanks for the Vedio
Very good video
🙏🙏
The memes are superb haha
Thank u :) Vida is nice 👍
Thank you
for present situation ola is than better than all vehicles in terms of price and performance and quality
All EV manufacturers in India must take into account that the number plates are GREEN and that the paint job must compliment it. Nexon for eg. Black blue and green does not work at all.
Vida v1 issues
Software Issues are
1) Bluetooth is not easily getting connected when you open app.
2) Odo meter reading difference in Vida v1 screen and Vida v1 mobile app.
3) Date is not automatically getting sync with server.
4) SOS is not working, even after configuring emergency contact in app.
5) Trips are getting captured incorrectly. Sometimes it skips trips and some times calculate incorrect kilometer which is 3 times of actual.
5) Android mobile app notification visible only if you open app. No real time notification (Toast message).
6) False Intruder alert.

I want to buy a new scooter then give me an opinion on which one is better
1 tvs iqube
2 chetak
3 hero vida
4 ather
5 ola
Only 6 k difference between tvs std and tvs s
That's crazy 👏👏
The most desi way to review a scooter is if it can fit an water can.
TVS just take my money!!!
@pradeep bro : plz tell ur honest opinion. I am looking ev for my father.. shortlisted bw chetak ev and Vida v1 pro.. after flipkart offer both scooter is coming around same on road price infact vida is 5k cheaper around 1.20 L .. so which one to go .. plz suggest
Which one did u go for, what major things u considered before buying
Your brother shoots really good footage.
That award part was fun
Please do them often.
Anyways great comparison 👏 anna

What's happening in SIMPLE ONE bro any updates 🙄
im also waiting bro
Sameee here bro
Simple one simply Afaaa 😃
Hero vida
Lithium ion is better with more battery cycles compared to lithium polymer. thumbs down to hero 😢
Vida helping to increase Ola sale.😃😃
Hero vida v1 pro is available on Flipkart/Amazon @ 1.27lakhs(approx) (ex-showroom) is it worth the price??pls answer
Now it is 1.12

My side is safty so i go to vida bcoz that's battery type is lithium polimer
Chandru mastry
In these three vida is best in all evs ola is best
Any ev it should be within 75000 on road, otherwise no use.
TVS iqube is giving 105 KM. My review is after 6 months usage
That's awesome
Tvs is worth👌👌
Bro talk about ather Scam
Ather doing biggest Scam in EV industry Ather always collecting full amount for full capacity of battery Price from government subsidy and customer But in lower variant not giving the full usage Of battery locked the almost 30 percentage of Battery
450x and 450 Plus Both same capacity battery but customer usage capacity is different
Ather not giving the 450X full amount bill In Ather showroom told ₹20000 will give separate bill on delivery time
You must also put egg tray, because people buy 100 eggs and carry it in a scooty
1.Chetak is a good looking traditional scooter with less range minimal boot space compared to others in this range and high price for the product,the front boot like vespa gives is a plus .2. Iqube is a bad looking hub motor scooter which is competing with better motored scooters.3. Vida ticks all the box except the price .
I purchased vida at 127000 on road price whereas other scooters price at 160000 so current price point vida is best
Tvs is best!
Compare to hero Vida v1 pro Bajaj chetak is money value product
I like hero v1 pro
