TVS looks set to expand its electric scooter line-up with the launch of an all-new electric scooter. Likely to be badged Orbiter, the scooter is expected to be based on the design patents that the company filed earlier this year in Indonesia, previewing a boxy scooter with large wheels.

The teaser image accompanying the launch date announcement shows a model hidden by a cover, hiding away almost all details. The only visible cues include the curve of what looks to be a large front wheel visible at the front and the points of the handlebar-mounted rear view mirrors. The teaser image also featured a large ‘O’ in the background, alluding to the fact that the model’s name could start with the letter.
TVS’ previous patent images have suggested that the scooter will get a very utilitarian design with boxy and upright proportions while retaining some of the design elements seen on the iQube, including the edge-to-edge DRL on the front apron and the taillight.

The suspension set-up is also expected to be quite basic with a telescopic fork up front and twin shocks at the rear. The electric motor, meanwhile, looks to be mounted in the rear wheel hub.

The new scooter is expected to be positioned below the current iQube as a more affordable model. Full powertrain details are not yet known, though it could share components with the iQube to keep costs in check.
