About the Reviewer

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.

About the Reviewer

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.

About the Reviewer

The services of hero electric bikes is terrible.
Even company officials are least bothered to resolve the problem.
After a lot of follow-ups, just lip service.
Horrible experience.
Batteries are replaced within 10 days of purchase.
Charging issues.
After that within a month, batteries swelled.
Replaced again with a faulty battery in 45days follow-up.
Again batteries give charging problems and drainage problems.
Chasing them for the last 45 days now. No resolution.

About the Reviewer

Scooty tires are very small which gives an absolutely bad feel. Driving the scooty on the road gets stuck on the breaker. Bounces a lot when it comes to the pit, everything else is fine on a single charge, it runs 80 to 85 km in the local while the company has promised 108 km per hour which proves to be wrong.

About the Reviewer

I used my friends bike. In future i will definitely purchase hero e bikes. Excellent in mileage. Speed 60 kms. Pickup in 7 seconds. Eco friendly. No pollution. Good future of e bikes in India hero bikes trust of 70% Indians. Dynamic looks, maintenance cost is lower than fuel bikes. Monthly cost of e bike is rs.800 & petrol bike cost was rs. 3500 of if daily ride 50 kms.

About the Reviewer

Buying experience:- within 20 days, vehicle got registered and delivered
Riding experience:- turning radius is too much, which creates problem during turning. This bike is not suited for roads, which is having potholes. Shock absorber performance is not that good, due to which, back pain will affect rider. Even if company promises top speed of 45km/h, but this is without a rider. With a rider weighing 70kg, speed goes down to 40km or below.
Looks and performance:- look is not that good, because, battery can be seen from rear tyre side. Seat height of vehicle is less than that of activa. Since maximum speed scooter can deliver is only 45km/h, so one can't overtake which moves at 40km speed.
Servicing:- actually no major service is required for the vehicle, even though, to pay some amount to the dealer, paid service intervals added in periodic services.
Pros and cons:-
Pros:- powerful electric scooter at lower price. This electric scooter good for ladies. Suitable for travel on flat good roads
Cons:- not suitable for tall men. Even not suitable for men, who require some speed and want to overtake a vehicle. Will feel back pain during long rides. Turning radius is more. Some times at full accelerator throttle, scooter moves half of its half maximum speed. We need to decrease the throttle and the increase it, then only it achieves maximum speed.
