TVS Orbiter 2025 Review : This time again, TVS has created a buzz in the electric mobility department with the launch of the Orbiter electric scooter. This gorgeous scooter is a beautiful brew of simplicity, and practical technology.
Especially for entry-level buyers willing to look into EVs and still want something affordable with decent features.
Design And Styling
The Orbiter is a hath clean-looking and sober scooter. Good angles, such as straight lines and minimum acrobatics-give it an aura of elegance and durability for daily use. The headlight and DRL at the front highlight the contemporary-modern lines of the scooter. The balcony-style high windscreen, along with an option of seven rich colors, like “Neon Sunburst”, and “Cosmic Titanium”. Overall, the scooter looks simple, yet confident.
Range, Speed, Battery
Once charged, the Orbiter has an IDC certified range of 158 km, which is very much suitable for urban use.
Battery-wattage: 3.1 kWh lithium-ion battery.
Top speed: Approx. 68 km/h, enough for city riding.
From what is heard, 0-80% charging is done in about 4 hours 10 minutes.
Comfort and Features
Comfort-wise, the Orbiter is a great scooter. A long footboard- almost 290 mm- for good leg room.
A 34-litre underseat storage space will fit away with two helmets quite easily.
Seat height is approximately 845mm, thus easy for tall riders.
Suspension: Telescopic forks at the front, dual shocks at the rear. Works well for the rider over potholes.
Tech Features and Connectivities
The Orbiter is a smart scooter; the TVS SmartXonnect app enables the user to control everyday functionalities like:
Navigation
Call/SMS alerts
Geo-fencing
Anti-theft alerts
Crash/fall alerts
Live location tracking
And:
Cruise control
Hill-hold assist
Reverse mode
Fall-triggered motor cut-off
Hardly such features can be seen at this price point, mostly kept in the high-end scooters.
Plus, regenerative braking gives the battery a little slow recharge.
Braking, Weight, and Ground Clearance
Braking: Front disc & rear drum brakes copulated with CBS (Combined Braking System)
Weight: Around 112 kg—very easy to handle.
Ground clearance: 169 mm! That makes it quite easy for the city to deal with potholes and steep slopes.
