Quantum Energy Plasma XR 2.1 kWh

The Quantum Energy Plasma XR is a simple, low-cost city scooter: a 2.1 kWh portable lithium-ion battery (IP67), a 100 km range claim, a 60 km/h top speed, a BLDC hub motor rated at 1.5 kW with 2.3 kW peak and 110 Nm, Eco and Sport modes with reverse assist, drum brakes with CBS, 10-inch wheels on tubeless tyres, telescopic forks and twin rear shocks, 178 mm of ground clearance, a 770 mm seat and a 98 kg kerb weight, for ₹89,095 ex-showroom in Delhi. You get a digital console with Bluetooth and turn-by-turn navigation and a front USB port, and the included charger fills the battery in 4 hours with no fast charging. Quantum claims 100 km; we would plan around 64 to 75 km in real city use. Best for budget buyers making short, slow city trips who want to carry the battery indoors to charge, and who are comfortable with a small brand.

Best for

  • Budget buyers who want an electric scooter under ₹90,000 — the Plasma XR is ₹89,095 ex-showroom in Delhi and about ₹93,300 on-road in most big cities
  • Flat-dwellers without a parking socket — the 2.1 kWh battery is portable, so you can carry it indoors and charge it on the included 670 W charger (0-80% in about 3 hours, full in 4 hours)
  • Short, slow city trips — a 60 km/h top speed, Eco and Sport modes, reverse assist, 178 mm of ground clearance and a 770 mm seat height

Caveats

  • The 100 km figure is the claimed range for the Plasma XR (BikeWale’s own summary also mentions 110 km); the 64-75 km band shown here is our estimate, not an official number. No owner-reported range is published, so we worked back from the 2,100 Wh pack at roughly 28-33 Wh per km of city consumption.
  • The top speed is 60 km/h and the motor is rated at 1.5 kW (2.3 kW peak), so it suits city streets, not highways or fast ring roads.
  • Brakes are drum at both ends with CBS, and the 10-inch wheels are smaller than most rivals’ 12-inch wheels. BikeWale lists steel wheels and BikeDekho lists alloys — check the scooter you are offered.
  • There is no DC fast charging, no keyless lock, no anti-theft alarm on the spec sheet, and the brake and tail lights are halogen bulbs. Under-seat storage is listed but its size is not published.
  • Battery size and warranty are reported differently: BikeWale gives 2.1 kWh and 3 years or 30,000 km on the battery plus 3 years on the motor, while ZigWheels and BikeDekho give 2.18 kWh and a 5-year or 50,000 km vehicle warranty. Confirm in writing at the dealer.
  • Quantum Energy is a small Hyderabad-based brand with a limited dealer and service network; check there is a service point near you before you buy.
