Platform, Suspension & Braking
The 2026 TVS iQube S is built on a tubular structure, which gives a robust feel similar to conventional petrol scooters.
The front suspension is telescopic forks that absorb urban bumps and potholes effectively to ensure a smooth riding experience, and the rear is adjustable hydraulic twin-tube shock absorbers, which can be adjusted for stiffness based on the load of the scooter when riding solo and with a pillion.
The front wheel braking is done by a 220 mm disc providing strong braking power with better heat dissipation, and the rear is managed with a 130 mm drum; it is standard in the electric scooter under the segment for braking of the rear wheel.
It also features regenerative braking, which converts the braking power to electricity to charge back the battery of the vehicle.

The 2026 TVS iQube S’ dimensions in terms of length, width and height are 1140 mm, 645 mm and 1805 mm, respectively.
