TVS Orbiter: Dynamic Color Options
The TVS Orbiter electric scooter is offered in six dynamic dual-tone paint schemes, engineered to combine aesthetic appeal with functional durability: Neon Sunburst, Stratos Blue, Lunar Grey, Martian Copper, Cosmic Titanium, and Stellar Silver. These finishes utilize high-grade coatings to resist wear and environmental degradation, ensuring long-term vibrancy for urban and semi-urban applications.
TVS Orbiter: Battery and Performance Specifications
The TVS Orbiter is equipped with a 3.1 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, certified with an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance, ensuring robust performance in diverse conditions.
It delivers an Indian Driving Cycle (IDC) range of 158 km, surpassing the base TVS iQube (2.2 kWh) by 64 km. The scooter is driven by a 2.1 kW (2.8 hp) hub-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), achieving a peak torque of 33 Nm and a top speed of 68 kmph. Acceleration from 0 to 40 kmph takes 6.8 seconds, optimized for urban commuting. Charging from 0 to 80% requires 4 hours and 10 minutes using a 650W onboard charger, with regenerative braking enhancing energy efficiency. The system supports Eco and Power modes, dynamically adjusting power delivery for range optimization or performance.
TVS Orbiter: Design and Technical Features
The TVS Orbiter is designed as a high-efficiency urban electric scooter, prioritizing ergonomics and advanced functionality. Its chassis integrates a 14-inch front alloy wheel—a segment-first—paired with a 12-inch rear wheel, enhancing stability and handling across varied road surfaces. The scooter features 169 mm ground clearance and a low 780 mm seat height, optimizing accessibility and maneuverability. The 290 mm flat footboard and 34-liter underseat storage (capable of housing two helmets) address practical urban needs.
The Orbiter’s lighting system comprises full LED headlamps with a protective visor and edge-to-edge combination tail lamps, improving visibility and power efficiency. Its colored LCD instrument cluster, integrated with TVS’s SmartXconnect platform, supports Bluetooth-enabled features, including turn-by-turn navigation, call/SMS alerts, and real-time battery monitoring. Advanced functionalities include:
- Segment-First Features: Cruise control, hill-hold assist, and reverse parking mode, leveraging motor control algorithms for precise low-speed operation.
- Safety and Connectivity: Geofencing, live GPS tracking, and crash/fall alerts, enabled via cloud-based telemetry.
- Additional Systems: Over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates, USB charging port, and regenerative braking for extended range. The suspension system combines telescopic front forks with a rear mono-shock, tuned for urban comfort and stability, while the braking setup includes a front disc and rear drum with regenerative assist. These features position the Orbiter as a technically sophisticated solution for eco-conscious urban mobility.
