The electric scooter market in India is growing fast, and TVS Motor has now added a brand-new model to its lineup — the TVS Orbiter. Designed to be stylish, practical, and loaded with smart features, this scooter enters the market at an aggressive price of ₹99,900 (ex-showroom), making it one of the most affordable yet feature-rich EVs you can buy in 2025.
Modern Styling with Everyday Comfort
At first glance, the Orbiter doesn’t look like your regular city scooter. TVS has given it a boxy, futuristic design that not only looks different but also improves aerodynamics. Thanks to this design work, the scooter promises slightly better riding range than many of its rivals.
The scooter is built with city riders in mind. A flat and spacious seat ensures comfort for both the rider and pillion, while a wide handlebar helps maintain an upright, relaxed posture during long rides. The footboard offers generous legroom, and there’s a massive 34-litre under-seat storage space that can easily fit two helmets — a feature commuters will appreciate.
Battery Power and Riding Range
The Orbiter runs on a 3.1kWh lithium-ion battery pack. TVS claims it can deliver up to 158km on a single charge, making it a dependable option for daily city commutes. The battery is also IP67-rated, which means it’s protected against dust and water, giving riders peace of mind during monsoon rides. To handle rough patches, the scooter sits on 14-inch wheels, offering stability on less-than-perfect roads.
Packed with Smart Technology
Where the Orbiter really shines is in its tech and connectivity features. Riders get a color LCD display that not only shows speed and battery information but also supports call alerts, navigation, and even SMS notifications. With the help of the connected app, owners can check battery status, track the scooter’s location, and receive alerts directly on their phones.
The scooter also supports over-the-air (OTA) updates, ensuring that the software stays current without the need to visit a service center.

Safety Beyond the Basics
Unlike many budget EVs, the Orbiter focuses heavily on rider safety. Features like hill-hold assist, parking assist, and even cruise control make it unique in its segment. Riders also benefit from geo-fencing, theft alerts, crash detection, and fall alerts, all of which connect directly to the rider’s smartphone.
For instance, if the scooter tips over while parked, the owner immediately receives a notification. Similarly, anti-theft and towing alerts add an extra layer of protection in urban environments.
Key Features That Stand Out
The scooter’s practicality extends to small but useful touches: 169mm of ground clearance, integrated LED headlamps with indicators, a USB charging port, and stylish body graphics. These details make the Orbiter not just a smart purchase but also a good-looking one.
Color Choices and Availability
TVS is offering the Orbiter in six eye-catching shades — Neon Sunburst, Stratos Blue, Lunar Grey, Stellar Silver, Cosmic Titanium, and Martian Copper. Bookings are already open online and at authorized dealerships, giving buyers multiple ways to reserve one.
Competition in the Market
With this launch, TVS is taking direct aim at rivals like Bajaj Chetak, Ola Electric, Hero Vida, and Ather Energy. By undercutting most of them on price while still offering advanced features, the Orbiter is set to heat up the competition in India’s fast-growing EV segment.

Final Thoughts
The TVS Orbiter strikes a fine balance between affordability and innovation. Its long range, connected features, spacious design, and segment-first safety tech make it a strong choice for anyone looking to switch to electric mobility without overspending. For urban riders who want more than just a basic EV, the Orbiter could well be the scooter that sets new benchmarks in 2025.
