TVS X

The TVS X is a premium electric scooter for riders who want performance, tech and design over long range, priced from Rs 2,66,141 ex-showroom with a single variant and an ARAI-claimed range of 118 km (plus or minus 5 km). There is no independently tested real-world range yet, so treat the ARAI figure as a ceiling, not a promise, and budget for a lower number in daily city riding.

Is the TVS X right for you?

Best for

  • Riders who want strong straight-line performance from a scooter, with an 11 kW peak motor, 105 kmph top speed and quick 0-40 kmph acceleration
  • Tech-focused buyers who value a large 10.2-inch tiltable TFT display, voice assistant support and built-in navigation over a bare-bones dashboard
  • Owners with a fixed parking spot at home who can install the optional 3kW Smart X Home rapid charger for near-full top-ups in under an hour
  • Buyers who see the scooter as a design and engineering statement (aluminium Xleton frame, adaptive bend lamps, hill hold, selectable regen) and are willing to pay a premium for it

Think twice if

  • Budget-conscious buyers, since Rs 2,66,141 ex-showroom sits well above most mainstream electric scooters for a single-variant lineup
  • Anyone who needs a swappable or removable battery for charging in a shared building or society without a dedicated point, since the TVS X's 4.44 kWh pack is fixed
  • Long daily commuters chasing maximum range, since the certified 118 km (ARAI/IDC) is already short of the 140 km TVS originally advertised at launch, and real-world range will run lower still
  • Buyers relying only on the bundled charger for daily top-ups, since the standard 950W unit takes about 3 hours 30 minutes for a 0-80% charge

Charging and living with it

Charging: Bundled 950W portable AC charger, 0-80% in ~3h30m; optional 3kW Smart X Home rapid charger does 0-50% in ~50 min. Battery is two 2.2 kWh packs (4.44 kWh total).. Most owners charge overnight at home; plan public or workplace charging for longer trips. Daily charging relies on the bundled 950W charger (0-80% in about 3.5 hours) unless you invest in the optional 3kW Smart X Home charger (0-50% in about 50 minutes), and since the 4.44 kWh battery is fixed rather than removable, you'll need a reliable charging point wherever the scooter is parked.

5-year cost of ownership

Based on 40 km/day, the TVS X TVS X (Standard) costs about ₹320/month to run versus ₹2,800/month for a comparable petrol scooter, a saving of ₹30,174/year at July 2026 prices.

FAQ

What is the real-world range of the TVS X, not just the claimed figure?

TVS has not published an independently tested real-world range for the X. The official certified figure is 118 km plus or minus 5 km (ARAI/IDC), which is itself lower than the 140 km TVS originally advertised at launch. Expect real daily range to come in below the certified number, especially with higher speeds, city stop-start riding or AC-heavy weather.

How long does the TVS X take to charge?

The bundled 950W portable AC charger takes about 3 hours 30 minutes for a 0-80% charge. TVS also sells an optional 3kW Smart X Home rapid charger that does 0-50% in roughly 50 minutes, useful if you need a fast top-up between rides, but it is an added cost on top of the scooter's price.

Which TVS X variant should I buy?

There is only one variant, the TVS X (Standard), priced at Rs 2,66,141 ex-showroom with a 4.44 kWh battery (two 2.2 kWh packs) and 11 kW peak motor. There is no lower-priced or longer-range trim to choose between, so the buying decision is really about whether the single spec sheet and price fit your budget and needs.

Can I swap or remove the TVS X battery for charging?

No. The 4.44 kWh battery is fixed inside the scooter and not user-removable, so all charging has to happen with the scooter parked at a charging point, either the bundled AC charger or the optional 3kW home unit. Factor this in if you do not have secure home or society charging access.

Is the TVS X worth its price compared to mainstream electric scooters?

The TVS X justifies its premium mainly through performance (11 kW motor, 105 kmph top speed), a large 10.2-inch TFT display with navigation and voice control, and build touches like the aluminium Xleton frame and adaptive bend lamps. What it does not offer is class-leading range: at Rs 2,66,141 for a certified 118 km, buyers prioritising range per rupee should compare it carefully against rivals before deciding.
