TVS just dropped the most practical electric two-wheeler you can buy today. It’s not a scooter, not a moped — it’s a proper electric cycle that looks like a premium bicycle, costs only ₹45,000, and can easily do 75–100 km on a single charge. I’ve been riding it for the past few days in real city traffic and I’m genuinely impressed. No license, no registration, no fuel bills — just twist the throttle and glide. Here’s my complete hands-on review of the TVS Electric Cycle 2025.
Design & Build: Looks Premium, Feels Light
First impression? This thing is gorgeous. The lightweight aluminum alloy frame keeps the total weight at just 19 kg (with battery), so you can carry it up stairs or park it inside your flat without breaking a sweat. The matte finish, clean lines, and vibrant color options (Electric Blue, Stealth Black, Crimson Red) give it a proper premium vibe — easily passes for a ₹80k e-bike.
The seat is wide and cushioned, handlebars are adjustable, and the low step-through frame makes it super easy for women and shorter riders. LED headlamp, tail lamp, and reflectors are standard. It’s compact enough to weave through traffic and small enough to park anywhere.
Battery & Real-World Range
TVS promises up to 100 km per charge, and in real-world mixed use (throttle + occasional pedaling), I’m getting 75–85 km consistently — that’s a full week of office commute for most people. Pure throttle mode still gives 60–70 km easily.
The 36V 10Ah lithium-ion battery is removable, so you can charge it in your room. Full charge in 4–5 hours using a normal home socket. Cost per charge? Just ₹8–12. That’s less than your daily coffee!
Performance & Riding Experience
The 250W brushless hub motor delivers instant torque — 0 to 25 km/h feels effortless. Top speed is legally capped at 25 km/h (so it stays in the “bicycle” category), but that’s more than enough to keep up with city traffic.
Three riding modes:
• Pedal only (for exercise)
• Pedal-assist (motor helps when you pedal)
• Pure electric (lazy mode — just twist and go)
Front disc brake + rear V-brake stop you confidently even in the rain. Suspension eats potholes for breakfast. Zero noise, zero vibration — it’s actually relaxing to ride.

- 💡 Full LED lighting for night rides
- 📱 Built-in USB charging port for your phone
