            No cons all is with pros
            Hero optima has a nice mileage if you want to drive it in city around 65 km in single charge. The body is of plastic but a solid one and has very good storage if you take single battery. The seats are not that much comfortable but it is okay around 4 Star out of 5. The service is very nice from the company and doesn't need any type of maintenance.

            Economical Sturdy Electric Scooter
            I purchased it for my daughter who travels 50 to 60 km daily. I researched available popular models in the market like Bajaj Chetak, Ola s1 pro, TVS I Qube, and B gauss and its design is similar to Bajaj Chetak electric. It has three modes of drive economy, sports, and normal drive along with reverse mode. It has three colors. It has a good pick up which is good for city driving. Its problem is the display board is not visible in daylight. The price could have been competitive and less than one lakh rupees.
