The TVS Orbiter is a current electric scooter. BikeWale lists 2.5 kW maximum power. Its claimed top speed is 68 kmph. It weighs 101 kg.
The TVS Electric Orbiter is a scooter from TVS Electric. It is currently on sale. Scooters are made for easy city riding: automatic, step-through and usually with storage under the seat. It is electric, so there is no engine oil, clutch or exhaust to maintain — servicing centres on the brakes, tyres, suspension and battery health.
Its electric motor produces 2.5 kW. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 34 PS per tonne; by that measure, performance is modest — fine for city traffic and steady cruising, less so for quick highway overtakes. The claimed top speed is 68 km/h. Charging times: 0-80% - 2.2 hr.
Being electric, it has no gears or clutch — you twist the throttle and go.
It is built around a steel tube frame. Suspension is by telescopic fork at the front and dual shock absorber at the rear. Braking is by a drum at the front and a drum at the rear, with a combined braking system (CBS). Using the rear brake lever also applies some front brake, which shortens stops for riders who lean on the rear brake. It rides on 14-inch front and 12-inch rear alloy wheels with tubeless tyres — 90/80 - 14 at the front and 90/90 - 12 at the rear.
The seat is 760 mm off the ground, which is low and makes it easy to put your feet down. It weighs 101 kg ready to ride, light enough to push around and park easily. Ground clearance is 165 mm — enough for most speed breakers.
Equipment includes 5.5 " LCD Display, an LED headlamp, call and SMS alerts, distance-to-empty readout, geo-fencing and front storage box. Safety equipment includes side-stand engine cut-off and side-stand warning. It has an eco and City riding mode.
It is best suited to city errands and riders who would rather not shift gears. Its low seat also makes it approachable for shorter and newer riders. Being electric, it suits riders with somewhere to charge it at home or at work.
For battery health, avoid leaving it fully drained or parked in strong heat for long periods.

Specifications last checked:
Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.
Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.
With Drum and Drum brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.
Automatic scooters transmit power through a belt and variator. Listen for slipping or judder, and have them inspected as part of regular servicing.
A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.
This bike runs 90/80 - 14 / 90/90 - 12 tyres. Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.
The battery is listed as 1.8 kWh. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.
