27 weeks ago
Harsh Murarka
I purchased this photon 2 years back. In 1st year it worked properly the battery was not working then I approached to company they said it would take a maximum of 60 days to get a new battery because it is under warranty. But today 10 months completed, the battery has not come Dealer said that there is no progress in the company and told to file a case with the company but every consumer does not have much time for these petitions So very worst service please don't purchase these scooter. You can also try to contact the consumer care helpline for inquiries or complaints you will come with no response.

Sudhanshu
Reliability issues with the bike, construction quality is very poor, and they used substandard materials to design the bike. As electric scooters are new in the market so maintenance issue is also there, and spare parts are also not available on time, my suggestion to each and every viewer please don't buy this scooter it's a completely waste of money.

Avoid hero electric and its dealers like the plague!The product breaks down within months and then no one responds. By no one I mean literally they will not pick up your calls. Terrible post-sales service. Let's call it non-existent. Only buy if you can fix electric vehicles on your own. Else let it be.

Electric is the future
3 years ago
Krishna
Electric bikes and scooters are the future of mobility. Skyrocketing fuel prices are forcing people to consider more practical alternatives such as electric bikes and cars. With a great range of electric bikes and electric scooters in India by popular automakers like hero electric, Bajaj auto, tvs motors and amo electric bikes and more homegrown brands indicates it's a good time to switch to electric for a greener environment.

Best electric vehicle
3 years ago
Shashank Pathak
I bought this scooter in November 20 in Jabalpur (MP). My daily commute is around 30-35 kms. With the speed and pickup, there is no compromise when compared to other petrol heads.The top speed is 55 km/h, and battery lasts for around 85 kms.This vehicle is very light to ride, weighing just 87 kg.Suspension and balancing of the vehicle is good. Just as other scooters.Charging of the vehicle takes 4 hours for a full charge and around 1.5 units (around Rs.12)Looks of the vehicle is just awesome, this is an eye turner for everyone. Everyday 3 to 5 strangers asks about the performance, pricing and praise the vehicle.Servicing and maintenance is more or less nil.3 years warranty on battery and motor.

Now a days it's very useful for daily usage. It have good pickup power. It have 51 km/h speed. I travel daily 60-70 km. It saves 100-150rupees per day. But body quality is not well, If they can improve body quality, it is the best scooter.
