Auto Expo 2023: The 2023 iQube ST has been unveiled by TVS at the Auto Expo 2023. Here is all we know about the new flagship EV from the Hosur-based two-wheeler manufacturer. The TVS iQube ST gains voice assistance and TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) for 2023. Other than that, the e-scooter appears to be essentially unaltered from the model displayed last year. It therefore receives the same design with a splash of modern elements. You receive a single-piece seat, a grab rail, and all-over LED lighting. It is powered by a 4.56kWh battery coupled to a 3kW motor. According to TVS, the iQube ST has a top speed of 82 km/h and a maximum range of 145 kilometres. The battery may be charged up to 80% using a standard charger in four hours and six minutes.
There are presently three versions of the TVS iQube available: Standard, S, and ST. The top-spec ST model comes with a larger 4.56 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, compared to the base version and the iQube S's 3.04 kWh battery pack. On a single charge, they are said to have a maximum range of 100 kilometres, 100 kilometres, and 145 kilometres, respectively.

The ST trim still has Bluetooth connectivity, a USB connector for charging, geo-fencing, theft alarm, turn-by-turn navigation, ride modes, phone alerts, audio control, incognito mode, park assist, and more in addition to the newly added features. On the TFT console of the e-scooter, all of these features are accessible. The braking system consists of a single front disc and a rear drum unit, and it is supported by telescopic front forks and dual rear shocks. The latter is placed on 12-inch alloy wheels with front and rear tyres measuring 90/90.
Notably, in May of last year, TVS Motor Company updated the iQube electric scooter with a larger battery pack, additional functions, varieties, and cosmetic improvements. With the given makeover, the TVS iQube's sales have steadily increased over the months, and it just had its highest-ever sales in December 2022.
