TVS has unveiled the TVS X, an all-new electric scooter, with a price tag of Rs 2.49 lakh (ex-showroom). Serving as the brand's first-ever performance-oriented electric scooter, this model is packed with innovative features that set it apart in its segment.

Let's look at the top 5 highlights of this performance scooter from TVS.
1. Design
The thing that grabs your attention is the design as it departs from the conventional approach. The scooter flaunts a bold design language highlighted by a distinctive pill-shaped LED daytime running light (DRL) accompanied by two square-shaped LED headlight units on either side. Embracing a maxi-scooter aesthetic, it boasts a central spine and intentionally exposes portions of the Xleton frame, contributing to its robust character. The X also gets a split-seat setup, which is not what you see very frequently on a scooter
