EV Scooter Charging Guide: TVS iQube 3.1 kWh vs 3.5 kWh

Verified 2026-09-05 · By VUKAR Editorial Team

Which iQube fits your route and charging time?

Compare TVS iQube 3.1 kWh and 3.5 kWh using your daily distance, parking supply and time between rides.

Compare TVS iQube battery charging questions with Vukar Automation's scooter guide. Match the inputs to the 3.1 or 3.5 kWh version.

  • The 3.1 kWh variant lists 123 km IDC range; the 3.5 kWh lists 145 km.
  • IDC is a test-range figure, not a promise for every ride.
  • Both list portable, offboard chargers. Confirm the exact supplied charger.
  • TVS pages differ on the 3.5 kWh charging time. Resolve that before ordering.

Read the battery size after iQube

  • iQube is a model family. The number identifies the battery variant.
  • kWh means battery energy. It is not the motor's power or your home's plug rating.
  • TVS calls these installed battery capacities. Do not relabel them as usable energy.

Confirm the iQube 3.5 kWh 0–80% charging time

  • The exact 3.5 kWh technical page states 4 hours 30 minutes for 0–80%.
  • The main iQube page also shows 4 hours 40 minutes in a variant card.
  • Ask TVS which time and charger apply to the scooter being delivered. Neither figure is a full-charge time.
  • Do not choose between these variants on a ten-minute difference that is not yet resolved.

Plan the ride you actually take

  • Write down the return journey, regular detours and distance between dependable charging stops.
  • Use the stated IDC figures only as the named test comparison.
  • Ask for a test ride on a relevant route. Plan a reserve rather than spending every stated kilometre.
  • Check seat comfort, parking access and moving the scooter while stopped; the battery figure cannot answer those questions.

Offboard charging, SOC and electricity tariff explained

Word Plain meaning Check
Offboard Charger is outside the scooter Where will you store and use it?[S1] [S2]
SOC Battery charge percentage Match the start and target[S1] [S2]
Tariff Your electricity price per unit Use your actual ₹/kWh[S6]

Estimate a normal charging day

  • Enter the exact battery variant in the calculator.
  • Use the confirmed charger rating, your daily distance and applicable electricity tariff.
  • Treat the result as a planning estimate. Do not use the motor's power as charger power.
  • Compare the same charge window. The published times here cover 0–80%, not 0–100%.
  • Use measured electricity at the charging point when checking the actual bill impact.
[S1] [S2] [S6]

Portable does not mean any socket

  • Ask TVS to confirm the approved charger, plug and supply needs for the exact scooter.
  • Show the charging location to a qualified electrical professional before delivery.
  • Check secure cable routing and required parking permission.
  • Do not assume a car wallbox or another scooter's charger is approved because a connector looks similar.
[S1] [S2] [S7]

Ask the TVS seller

  • Is the order for iQube 3.1 kWh or 3.5 kWh?
  • Which charger and accessories are included in the final quote?
  • Which 0–80% time applies to this delivered version?
  • What written battery, vehicle and charger warranty terms apply?
  • What is the complete local price, booking refund rule and delivery estimate?
  • Who will check my charging place and handle charger service?

Follow the exact TVS charger instructions and have the supply checked by a qualified electrical professional.[S7]

This guide does not approve wiring, adapters or a charger pairing. Do not improvise a charging connection.[S7]

Quick questions

Does 145 km mean I can always ride 145 km?

No. It is the stated IDC test figure. Plan your route and reserve separately.[S2]

Is the 3.5 kWh always the right choice?

No single battery size fits everyone. Compare your route, charging access and complete quote.[S1] [S2]

Can I book through TVS?

Yes, the official variant pages link to TVS booking. Recheck the selected variant, location and payment terms before paying.[S4] [S5]
