TVS iQube ST: What All Does It Retains
Apart from the feature-rich updates, it has preserved the tech loadings from the earlier models. Bluetooth connectivity, reverse park assist, music control, geo-fencing, turn-by-turn navigation, a big boot, and a very necessary feature, the USB charging port so that your phone doesn't run out of battery. It gets a 7-inch TFT display console which is touchscreen enabled. It embraces front telescopic suspension with dual rear shock suspension. The 12-inch alloy wheels are equipped with disc brakes on the front and drums on the rear.
On the powertrain front, the TVS iQube ST gets a 3kW motor battery with a 4.56 kWh battery. The company claims that the iQube ST can offer a maximum range of 145km and a top speed of 82km/hr. The battery can be juiced up from 0 to 80% in around 4 hours with a regular EV charger.
VERDICT - Although there are minor changes to the earlier models unveiled last year, they are quite quirky. TPMS is handy and voice assist is quirky and handy. The pricing is yet to be revealed and would be a little higher than the previous model. TVS with the new updates at regular intervals like this can keep the market interested in its lineup.
