Quick Takeaways
- TVS iQube Kenya launch expands TVS African entry.
- Two electric variants offer different range and speed.
On August 6, TVS Motor Company announced the launch of its premium electric scooter, the TVS iQube, in Kenya, marking the company’s entry into the African market. The electric scooter will be offered in two model variants, namely the TVS iQube 3.5 and TVS iQube 2.2. The launch introduces two battery configurations within the same electric scooter family, providing different real-world range and top-speed specifications. Both variants are equipped with a 4.6 kW electric motor and are designed around lithium-ion battery technology, while their battery capacities differ.
The TVS iQube 3.5 is powered by a 4.6 kW electric motor paired with a 3.5 kWh lithium-ion battery. It offers a real-world range of 115 km and a top speed of 82 km/h. The electric scooter accelerates from 0–40 km/h in 4.2 seconds and produces 140 Nm of peak torque. This variant therefore combines the larger 3.5 kWh battery capacity with the higher stated range and top speed of the two models. The specifications position the TVS iQube 3.5 as the longer-range configuration within the two-variant lineup introduced for the Kenyan market.
The TVS iQube 2.2 also uses a 4.6 kW electric motor, but it is paired with a smaller 2.2 kWh lithium-ion battery. The variant provides a real-world range of 75 km and a top speed of 75 km/h. Like the TVS iQube 3.5, it accelerates from 0–40 km/h in 4.2 seconds and delivers 140 Nm of peak torque. The primary specification differences between the two variants are therefore their battery capacities, real-world ranges and top speeds, while the stated motor output, acceleration time and peak torque remain the same. The launch marks TVS Motor Company’s entry into the African market through Kenya.
