TVS iQube is India’s second best-selling electric scooter after Ola S1. I have recently covered the battery replacement cost of Ola S1 in the previous article, and in this one, I have covered TVS iqube battery replacement cost.
After some research, I learned from the nearby TVS showroom that the battery replacement cost around Rs 55,500 – 72,400. The price of battery may vary on the capacity of the battery location and the showroom price.
As TVS started giving the service facility to the owner, I recently visited the nearby TVS showroom and asked the service manager the cost of the battery. He told me, “Only four people have claimed the battery warranty as of now, and all 4 of them were replaced for free as they were under the warranty”.
As electric vehicles have recently entered the market, not everyone is looking for battery replacements because, according to companies, most electric vehicles will change their batteries after 5-6 years. It has only been three years since people in India started using electric vehicles commercially.
As the price is relatively high, it is pretty affordable if you calculate and compare it with ICE(fuel) vehicles.
However, companies will decrease the price of lithium-ion batteries if they focus on their manufacturing process and technology. Apart from this, a huge number of batteries will be recycled, which can be a valid factor for the decrease in battery prices.
