Selecting between the Komaki MX3 and TVS iQube Electric would depend on certain factors such as usage, budget, features required, brand preference, etc. iQube Electric has an annoying startup tune, which sounds like a certain water purifier, The raised floorboard means your legs could foul with the handlebar while making tight U-turns, Doesn’t support fast charging, yet. The iQube should be sweating a bit, because, after years of being developed behind closed doors, it is now meeting reality and the competition. The Ather 450 and Bajaj’s Chetak put the iQube on the back foot, at least on paper, but it’s on the roads it has to prove itself. The heart of the iQube is a 3kW hub motor sourced from Bosch, which is a bit disappointing. Even the 4.4kW of peak power, translating to about 6PS of power, sounds quite middling. TVS’ claims of accomplishing the 0-40kph dash in 4.2s and hitting a top speed of 78kph don’t mean much either, unless it does so in a fun and confident manner. On the other hand, the Komaki MX3 is a low-speed electric vehicle with a top-speed of 25kmph. The lithium-ion battery takes 4-5 hours to get fully charged while the Gel battery is charged in 6-8 hours. Komaki MX3 has a claimed range of 85-100km on a full charge, which will consume a maximum of 1.5 units of electricity. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and riding comfort. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.
