Our take on this /// Verdict
The Hero Electric Optima, while promising on paper, falls short in several critical areas based on user reviews. The primary concerns revolve around the reliability and durability of the scooter. Many users have reported issues such as sudden stops mid-ride, poor braking performance, and frequent mechanical failures. The service experience has also been a significant letdown, with users complaining about unresponsive and unhelpful customer service, long wait times for parts, and high costs for repairs. Given these issues, it is challenging to recommend the Hero Electric Optima to potential buyers, especially when considering the importance of reliability and service support in the Indian market.
Price
The Hero Electric Optima is priced competitively in the Indian market, with the ex-showroom price ranging around 78,000 to 1 lakh, depending on the variant. However, the on-road price can vary significantly based on state-specific subsidies and other local factors, typically adding another 10,000 to 20,000 to the ex-showroom price. While the initial cost seems attractive, the high maintenance and repair costs, coupled with the poor service experience, can significantly impact the overall value for money. As a buyer, it is crucial to consider these long-term costs when making a decision.
Mileage
Wednesday, 20 November 2024 03:42 AM
The mileage of the Hero Electric Optima is a mixed bag. While the company claims a range of 85 kilometres on a single charge, many users have reported actual ranges that are significantly lower, often between 40 to 60 kilometres per charge. This discrepancy can be a major concern for those relying on the scooter for daily commutes, especially if the actual range does not meet their needs. The variability in mileage also adds to the uncertainty and range anxiety that potential buyers might face.
