Ola S1 Pro Gen 2 Vs Ather 450X Vs TVS X : The boom in electric scooter demand in India will peak in 2025. The hullabaloo has been joined by three major players, all with their flagship models: Ola Electric, Ather Energy and TVS.
All torque bikes are out there: the extreme technology, battery range, design, and power competition. Enter the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2, Ather 450X, and TVS X. Let’s see which might just be the best scooter to suit you by 2025.
Design And Build quality
The design of the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2 has been made much sleeker and more contemporary than that of its predecessor. The new monocoque frame, LED headlamps, and a lightweight body are just the things that make it more premium.
The Ather 450X is known for its solid build quality and muscular looks. Its sharp front end, sporty stance, and signature headlight design give it a premium EV feel.
TVS X seems to be promising in terms of aesthetics with an open body design, floating seat design, and central spine chassis-Monster Jim from the near future; the boldest-looking TVS X.
A TVS X is bolder in terms of design, while Ola shows off their sleekness, and Ather is the most balanced.
Performance And Range
While the S1 Pro Gen 2 has an 11 KW motor that literally blasts out of the 0-40 km/h range in 2.6 seconds and features a constant 4 kWh battery with an IDC range of 195 km, it reaches a top speed of 120 km/h.
With the kind of power it gives, the Ather 450X scooter speeds up on full power at a 3.7-kWh battery and boosts at a maximum power of 6.4 kW, allowing the acceleration from 0-40km/h only within 3.3 seconds while the expected range of about 150km.
Now, here comes the TVS X into the field with its sporty characteristics, making it exceptional in this contest. An achievement of going from zero to 40 in 2.6 seconds with an 11kW motor setup of a 4.4kWh battery. The maximum speed is quite good at 105 km/h, and it boasts an estimated range of about 140 km.
If it’s about the range, then it’s for sure the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2.
Ride Quality and Balance-All for Ather 450X as far as smoothness in Ride Quality.
The TVS X is the scooter most geared towards enthusiasts looking for outright performance.
Technology And Features
Intelligent features refer to all three scooters.
Miles better with a 7-inch touchscreen display, MoveOS 4, navigation, call alerts, music control, and cruise control is the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2.
The Ather 450X has a 7-inch TFT display, Bluetooth paired with navigation using Google Maps, an auto-indicator cancel feature, and Atherstack 5, which now speeds up your experience by working faster and better than ever.
This comes along with multiplayer gaming modes, internet browsing, and custom ride modes: a 10.2-inch touchscreen display that’s the largest in the segment, hence the largest in its class.
Charging And Battery Tech
Holy! Hypercharging. In this shining star, Ola is definitely on expansion and can give 75km in 15 minutes of power charging.
Across the country, Ather Grid will have over 1,500 such locations, and at least the nearest charging point would fall within 1 km of its location.
Fast charging will be the hallmark of the TVS X; however, the limitation of its charging network at the moment is very limited, but this is an area where TVS is working comprehensively.
Pricing And Value For Money
The exit ticket of the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2 comes for ₹1.48 lakh*(ex-showroom). The Ather 450X comes for approximately ₹1.45 lakh, whereas the TVS X is pricey at ₹2.50 lakh*(ex-showroom).
While Ola gives better value in terms of features and the range,
Ather stands for reliability,
while TVS X stands for performance and premiumness.
Which Is The One To Buy?
Choose the Ola S1 Pro Gen 2 for a longer range, features, and a smart operating system on a scooter.
If you consider ride quality and reliability, then the Ather 450X stands as one of the balanced EV scooters in the market.
But if you are ready to pay really high for futuristic design and extreme power, nothing could match the premium-ness and exclusivity of the TVS X.
At the close of the contest in 2025, it is emerging that Indian electric scooters have come a long way beyond holding their own in terms of affordability as transport, and now they want to be viewed in the smart and stylish riding experience factor.
