In the current scenario, I think it is safe to say that scooters have become an indispensable part of the Indian two-wheeler industry, so much so that they are gradually becoming a household commodity. The first vehicle to get purchased in a family is no longer a motorcycle, but a scooter. It is the convenience that it has brought into our lives, and the multiple roles it can carry out.
To provide some perspective, besides the generic purpose of ferrying the rider and pillion, along with the benefit of concealed storage space and gearless operation, scooters are extensively used for transporting goods — by delivery agents, and recently, even as a taxi to get to places and what not. And with everyone turning their attention towards electric mobility, every two-wheeler manufacturer needs to ensure a smooth transition into the future, while continuing to have a strong foothold in the present. One such name that has been managing it well so far, is TVS Motor Company. Besides its diverse portfolio of two-wheelers, these two machines are among the best examples out there, in their respective segments.
The NTorq 125 and the iQube are of the same family, but different in how they move people. The former is one of the top-selling 125cc scooters in the market, thanks to its sporty character and punchy performance. Ever since the Ntorq was introduced, it has been popular among college-goers and young working professionals, mainly because it breaks away from the conventional perceptions associated with scooters.
