Battery warranties have become a major differentiator for electric scooters in India. The table below compares the standard or advertised battery warranty offered by leading manufacturers as of 2026\. | Brand | Typical battery warranty | Notes | |-------|--------------------------|-------| | Ola Electric | \*\*Up to 8 years / 125,000 km\*\* (on eligible plans/models) | One of the longest battery warranties in the market. Coverage depends on the purchased warranty package and model. | | TVS Motor Company (iQube) | \*\*3 years / 50,000 km\*\* | Covers the battery pack with an IP67-rated design and in-house BMS. | | Greaves Electric Mobility (Ampere) | \*\*5 years / 75,000 km\*\* (most models) | Reo 80 has a shorter 3-year/30,000 km warranty. | | Hero MotoCorp (Vida) | \*\*5 years or more\*\* (varies by model) | Newer Vida scooters typically offer longer battery coverage than earlier models. | | Ather Energy | Generally \*\*around 5 years\*\* on recent models | Warranty terms vary by model year and optional extended coverage. | | Bajaj Auto (Chetak) | Generally \*\*3 years\*\* | Extended warranty options may be available through dealerships. | ### Which offers the best warranty? - \*\*Longest coverage:\*\* Ola Electric with up to \*\*8 years/125,000 km\*\*, subject to eligibility and terms. - \*\*Strong balance:\*\* Greaves Electric Mobility's Ampere scooters with \*\*5 years/75,000 km\*\*. - \*\*Established reliability:\*\* TVS Motor Company and Bajaj Auto offer shorter warranties but are often recognized for extensive service networks. ### What to check beyond the warranty period A longer warranty is valuable, but it's also worth checking: - Minimum battery health guarantee (for example, a specified remaining capacity). - Whether normal battery degradation is excluded. - Transferability if you sell the scooter. - Roadside assistance and replacement turnaround time. - Availability of service centers in your city. If you're planning to buy an electric scooter in 2026, I can also compare \*\*battery warranty, real-world range, battery chemistry (LFP vs NMC), and expected replacement cost\*\* for models like the Ola S1 Pro, Ather Rizta/450X, TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Vida VX2, and Ampere Nexus.

Here is the comparison of electric scooter battery warranties in India, covering both standard and extended packages: ### 1\. Ola Electric (S1 Series) \* \*\*Standard Warranty:\*\* 3 years or 50,000 km. \* \*\*Extended Warranty Options:\*\* Ola offers a "Top-up" plan extending coverage up to \*\*8 years\*\* with mileage tiers of 80,000 km, 100,000 km, or 125,000 km. \* \*\*Degradation Clause:\*\* Covers replacement if the battery health drops below \*\*70%\*\* during the warranty period. \* \*\*Transferability:\*\* The extended top-up warranty is transferable to a subsequent buyer. ### 2\. Ather Energy (450 Series & Rizta) \* \*\*Standard Warranty:\*\* 3 years or 30,000 km (Base) / 5 years or 60,000 km if bundled with the AtherStack Pro package. \* \*\*Extended Warranty (Eight70 Plan):\*\* Up to \*\*8 years or 80,000 km\*\* for an add-on cost (around ₹4,999, purchasable within 90 days of invoicing). \* \*\*Degradation Clause:\*\* Guarantees a minimum of \*\*70% battery health\*\*. Includes protection against deep discharge if the scooter is left idle for long periods. \* \*\*Transferability:\*\* Fully transferable to the next owner. ### 3\. TVS Motor (iQube Series) \* \*\*Standard Warranty:\*\* 3 years or 50,000 km. \* \*\*Extended Warranty:\*\* Can be extended up to 5 years or 70,000 km depending on the dealership package selected. \* \*\*Degradation Clause:\*\* Generally protects against manufacturing defects; structural replacement thresholds usually trigger if capacity dips below 70-80% (varies by specific service contract terms). ### 4\. Hero Vida (V1 / V2 Series) \* \*\*Standard & Extended Combo (Warranty++):\*\* Offers coverage up to \*\*5 years or 60,000 km\*\* for the battery (75,000 km for other critical components). \* \*\*Degradation Clause:\*\* Specifically covers performance degradation if the battery capacity falls by \*\*more than 30%\*\* (meaning it drops below 70% health). \* \*\*Transferability:\*\* Fully transferable to a subsequent owner, which helps protect resale value. ### Summary: What to Look For If long-term ownership is your priority, \*\*Ola\*\* and \*\*Ather\*\* offer the longest peace of mind with their 8-year extended plans. Always confirm the \*\*degradation clause\*\* (usually 70% health threshold) before signing, as simple "manufacturing defect" warranties will not cover a naturally fading battery range.

\*\* and Ather Energy offer the longest standard and extended battery warranties in India\*\*, providing up to \*\*8 years of coverage\*\*, while legacy brands like TVS and Bajaj stick to a standard \*\*3-year baseline\*\* with optional extensions. Selecting an electric scooter in India requires evaluating both upfront battery protection and long-term degradation clauses. The comprehensive breakdown below highlights battery warranty terms across major manufacturers. Comparison of Battery Warranties | Brand & Model | Standard Base Warranty | Maximum Extended/Top-Up Option | Key Condition / Health Clause | |---|---|---|---| | \*\*Ola Electric\*\* \*(S1 Pro, S1 Air, S1 X)\* | \*\*8 Years / 80,000 km\*\* | \*\*8 Years / 1,25,000 km\*\* \*(Via top-up plans)\* | Free replacement if State of Health (SoH) drops \*\*below 70%\*\*. | | \*\*Ather Energy\*\* \*(450X, 450S, Rizta)\* | \*\*5 Years / 60,000 km\*\* \*(With AtherStack Pro)\* | \*\*8 Years / 80,000 km\*\* \*(Eight70™ Protect Plan)\* | Guarantees \*\*minimum 70% SoH\*\*; explicitly covers deep discharge. | | \*\*TVS Motor\*\* \*(iQube Lineup)\* | \*\*3 Years / 50,000 km\*\* \*(2.2 kWh variant is 30,000 km)\* | \*\*5 Years / 70,000 km\*\* \*(Via official extension or BaaS)\* | Covers component manufacturing defects; excludes standard gradual degradation. | | \*\*Bajaj Auto\*\* \*(Chetak)\* | \*\*3 Years / 50,000 km\*\* | \*\*5 Years / 70,000 km\*\* \*(Adds +2 Years / 20,000 km)\* | Discretionary replacement; may use refurbished or reconditioned genuine parts. | | \*\*Hero MotoCorp\*\* \*(Vida V1)\* | \*\*3 Years / 50,000 km\*\* | \*\*5 Years / 70,000 km\*\* | Standard replacement terms for manufacturing defects. | Key Policy Highlights by Brand - \*\*Ola Electric\*\*: Offers the segment's highest mileage tracking via paid top-up packages. Owners can track capacity percentages dynamically through the official vehicle application. - \*\*Ather Energy\*\*: The stands out because it offers \*\*idle state assurance\*\*. This protects against claim rejections if a battery goes completely flat due to prolonged storage. - \*\*TVS Motor\*\*: The standard warranty structure can be modified through the, which lowers the initial purchase price and links the battery guarantee to the subscription duration. - \*\*Bajaj Auto\*\*: To keep the valid, riders must strictly complete periodic checkups at authorised repair centres. Replacement modules are matched to the exact energy metrics logged right before failure. Critical Fine Print to Verify Before Buying - \*\*The 70% Degradation Rule\*\*: Ensure the warranty contract explicitly guarantees a minimum State of Health (SoH), typically 70%. Without this clause, the manufacturer might deny replacement unless the battery completely dies. - \*\*Service Lock-ins\*\*: Almost all extended plans become null and void if a single scheduled service interval is missed or completed at an unauthorized garage. - \*\*Exclusions\*\*: Standard contracts exclude coverage for physical impacts, water submersions beyond IP67 ratings, and aftermarket electrical accessory installations. If you would like to pinpoint the best option for your routine, please share: - Your \*\*average daily or monthly riding distance\*\* - Your preference between an \*\*upfront purchase\*\* or a \*\*monthly battery subscription (BaaS)\*\* - How long you plan to \*\*keep the scooter\*\* (e.g., 3 years vs. 5+ years) This will help identify the most cost-effective warranty plan for your needs.
