Frequently Asked Questions

  • The life of a Lithium-Ion battery is measured in cycles.
  • One Cycle is defined as One full charge and discharge of the battery  This gives 100 kms range.
  • The life of iQube battery is 800 cycles which is 75,000 kms.
  • If you drive ~30 kms per day, this will give you a life of ~9 years.
  • After this, for the next 500 cycles, the vehicle can be used with a reduced range of 80% - 90%, that means 80 - 90 KMs.
  • This can vary based on multiple factors like ambient temperature, riding pattern, loading pattern, terrain, rate of discharge and so on.

  • One cycle is defined as one full charge and discharge of the battery, this gives 100 KMs of range.
  • For Eg., if someone charges from 10% to 35% and again discharges from 35% to 10%, it means 25% of SOC was used which is ¼ of the cycle.
  • Another example can be, if someone charges from 50% to 100% SOC always, that means in 10 days he will complete 5 cycles.

  • Aluminium casing: To rule out any physical damage and faster cooling of the battery pack.
  • Phase Change Material: It liquidates once the battery temperature reaches above 41 deg. and helps cool down the battery pack.
  • Intelligent Battery Management System: It regulates temperature and ensure optimum performance.
  • High Quality Cells: Made by LG with high safety standards (21700 cells).
  • Robust Testing: Battery pack gets tested under extreme conditions to ensure it delivers optimum performance in varied conditions ensuring high reliability and life at the same time.
  • Moreover, it meets all the safety and regulatory guidelines (AIS 156 Phase II) set by the Indian government.

With the key off condition, Battery pack will discharge less than 0.5% in 1 day at 100% SOC.

The battery used in TVS iQube is Lithium-ion with NMC (Nickel Magnesium Cobalt) Cell chemistry.

  • TVS iQube uses the best lithium-ion battery technology and our battery life is designed to be the same or more than the lifetime of the scooter.
  • However, battery attenuation of 10-20% can be expected after 75,000 km mark depending on the usage pattern.
  • Battery is covered under warranty for 2 years, 30,000 Kms whichever occurs earlier.
  • In past it had been seen that the prices of lithium which is the main costly component of the battery pack has reduced 3 times in last 8 years. So, the cost of replacement will vary depending on the price of lithium.

  • No, there is no extra battery pack available as of now.
  • iQube already comes with 2 battery packs.

  • It is safe, since the carry along charger that comes with an iQube has an inbuilt voltage fluctuation protection.

  • The battery life is designed to be same or more than the life of the scooter, however battery attenuation of 10-20% is expected around 75,000 KM mark based on the usage pattern.

Here are few tips to get the better range out of your TVS iQube.

  • Do not hold brakes while riding: Though it is a common practice among scooter riders to hold the rear brakes ever so slightly while riding, it should be avoided as it reduces the life of your brakes and burns extra energy in the process, thus reducing your efficiency.
  • Avoid overloading your scooter: The more weight you carry the more energy is used.
  • Rapid acceleration and riding at high speeds also use up your battery faster.
  • Maintain the recommended tyre pressure and check frequently. If they are under-inflated, their rolling resistance increases. As a result, more energy is wasted to move your scooter.
