Hero Electric Velociti

About
The Hero Electric Velociti was an early attempt by Hero to venture into the electric scooter market. It boasted a top speed of around 30-35 kmph and had a range of approximately 50 kilometers on a fresh battery. The scooter was known for its quick acceleration, thanks to the instant torque of its electric motor, but this performance dwindled as the battery degraded. The Velociti used a lead acid battery, which was a significant drawback due to its environmental impact and the need for frequent replacements. The scooter lacked adequate suspension, making rides uncomfortable, and it was not designed to carry two adults comfortably. Despite its low running costs, the absence of spare parts and the high cost of replacing the battery make it a less viable option for buyers today.

USER OPINION

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Hero Electric Velociti, though an early entrant in the electric scooter market, leaves a mixed impression. On the positive side, it was one of the quicker e-scooters in its time, offering instant torque that was appealing. However, the overall experience is marred by several significant drawbacks. The lead acid battery, which needs to be replaced every three years, is not only expensive but also environmentally questionable. The scooters performance degrades rapidly with battery age, reducing its top speed to hazardous levels on Indian roads. Additionally, the lack of suspension and the limited capacity to carry two adults make it less practical. While the running costs are minimal, the high tax on imported batteries and the absence of spare parts due to the companys demise are major concerns. In summary, while it was a bold step into electric mobility, the Velocitis limitations make it less desirable for current buyers.
Price
The pricing for the Hero Electric Velociti is no longer relevant in the current market since the model is discontinued and the company that produced it is no longer operational. However, when it was available, the ex-showroom price was relatively nominal, reflecting its basic specs and features. The on-road price would have included additional costs such as registration, insurance, and any state-specific taxes, but these figures are now historical. For those considering purchasing a used Velociti, the resale value is extremely low, with owners often being offered as little as 500 for the scooter. This reflects the lack of spare parts and the overall decline in the scooters performance over time.
Mileage
Wednesday, 20 November 2024 02:48 AM The Hero Electric Velociti offers a mileage of around 50 kilometers on a full charge when the battery is new, but this range decreases significantly as the battery ages. In practical terms, this means that the scooter is best suited for short, local trips rather than longer commutes. The cost of electricity to charge the scooter is minimal, making it an economical option for short distances, but the frequent need to replace the battery every three years adds a substantial recurring cost.
