About
Individuals interested in evaluating electric two-wheelers often visit this facility. When scheduling a test drive, riders should consider the intended use of the vehicle, such as daily commuting or longer weekend trips, as this affects the required battery range. During a demonstration, prospective buyers are advised to inquire about the specific charging infrastructure compatibility and the real-world efficiency metrics provided by the model. To compare different variants, it is useful to note the differences in motor power output and suspension setup, as these elements significantly alter the ride quality and handling characteristics across the product line.

If you're buying through TVS - SBM MOTORS, the on-road price you'll be quoted is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration, and insurance. Tamil Nadu offers: 100% Road Tax waiver extended until Dec 2027. Subsidies: ₹5,000-₹10,000 for e-scooters.. (For comparison, the green tax on petrol/diesel vehicles in Tamil Nadu is ₹2,000 (Fixed for private cars >15 yrs) — buying an EV avoids this entirely for the life of the vehicle.)
Central FAME-III incentives stack on top — typically ₹10,000 to ₹17,500 for electric two-wheelers and up to ₹1.5 lakh for electric cars above 50 kW capacity. A good dealer like TVS - SBM MOTORS will calculate the exact post-subsidy price during the test drive and handle the paperwork.
What to check before booking
- Confirm on-road price (ex-showroom + RTO + insurance + extended warranty)
- Ask about the FAME-III subsidy and any Tamil Nadu-level incentive — most dealers process these for you
- Verify the 8-year / 1.6 lakh km battery warranty document, in writing
- Test-drive at peak traffic and on a highway — performance differs significantly from petrol equivalents
- Confirm home-charging installation cost, including the cabling run from your meter to the parking spot
- Check service centre proximity — most EVs have lower service intervals (15,000 km vs petrol's 10,000 km) but require a brand-trained technician
