In extreme Indian summer heat, how does the Amo Mobility Feisty EV fare?
17 January 2025 08:53
Last year I switched from a petrol scooter to the Feisty EV and I actually prefer it in hot weather. Fuel evaporation and engine overheating worries are over. The great instant torque is good for quick getaways from traffic lights on sweltering days. Just keep the battery charged as it does drain faster in heat.

I live in Nagpur, which is infamous for very hot and very cold temperatures and the Feisty EV is decent, but not great in summer. The main issue I’ve had is reduced battery life over time – after a year I’m seeing about 20% less range than when it was new, and it really is noticeable in the heat.

I don't think the Feisty EV's heat performance is being judged harsh enough. Yes, there is some range reduction, but that is true of all EVs. It's good, because it starts reliably every time – unlike my neighbour's petrol scooter, which sometimes has problems starting in the heat. And riding gives you a bit of a breeze to help you cool off!

I’ve ridden a few e scooters and I’d put the Feisty EV in the middle of the pack in terms of heat performance. A bummer is that it doesn’t have active cooling for the battery. The motor appears to be robust enough to tolerate high temperatures. My tip: Therefore, try to charge it during cooler hours to get maximum battery life and performance.
Is the Aeroride YB2000 worth its premium price?
17 January 2025 07:28
Absolutely worth it! They build quality and performance are on par with scooters that cost hundreds, if not thousands, more. The premium features are available at a relatively reasonable price.

17 January 2025 07:28
No way. For that price, you could have a TVS iQube or Ather 450X with a better brand reputation and service network. The only reason to pay a premium for Aeroride is that it is still too new.

It's a mixed bag. On paper, the specs look great, but I’d be concerned with long term reliability and parts availability from a smaller brand.

If you appreciate the unique styling, I think it’s worth it. It absolutely stands out from the crowd of cookie cutter electric scooters.
Is the Aeroride YB2000 worth its premium price?

It’s expensive, but you have to consider the long term savings on fuel and maintenance. In the long run, it could actually work out cheaper than a petrol scooter.

I would say wait for more real world reviews. In Indian traffic conditions the claimed range doesn’t match actual performance.

It is overpriced for what it is. If you’re looking for similar specs, you can buy from established players like Ola or Ather for a lesser price.

17 January 2025 07:28
Features and build quality justify the premium. It is not intended to be a budget option.
Is the Aeroride YB2000 worth its premium price?
17 January 2025 07:28
I'm on the fence. They’re impressive specs but I’d like to see how it holds up after a year or two of heavy use before dropping that kind of cash.

If you can afford it, then go for it. We need to see more competition and better products in the EV space and it's the way newer innovative brands will support that.
Does the XBlade's digital instrument cluster meet the hype?
17 January 2025 06:48
It's a gimmick. It's hard to read in bright sunlight, and half the features are useless. I’m afraid I’ll have to give my simple analog dials any day.

I love it! The gear indicator is super helpful, and the layout is clean and easy to read at a glance.

It's okay, but not great. The backlight occasionally flickers, and the fuel gauge is very weirdly inaccurate.

One of the best things about the XBlade is the digital cluster. The bike feels more premium, and you get all the info you need.

But it’s overkill for a 160cc commuter. I don’t use half the functions, and I’m sick of worrying about the repair costs when it conks out after the warranty.

If you’ve upgraded from an old analog bike, the XBlade’s digital cluster is a breath of fresh air. It’s clear, it’s informative, it’s cool to look at.
