The bike will have some exciting colour options to choose from, including both monotone and dual-tone shades.

      2025 BYD SeagullDimensionally, 2025 BYD Seagull is Similar to Tata Tiago EV and packs larger battery pack options with a host of premium equipmentWhen BYD launched Seagull in China, it soon emerged as a major automotive phenomenon. Prices started from CNY 78,000 (Rs 9 lakh) and is one of the most value for money propositions for an electric vehicle. BYD has now launched a slight refresh of this vehicle in the form of 2025 BYD Seagull and it costs even less.2025 BYD Seagull EVAround a year since launch, BYD has already come up with a subtle facelift. This sheds some light on Chinese market trends and the price wars along with the need for relentless pursuit of perfection. With the facelift, 2025 BYD Seagull gets a slight design refresh along with new trim levels and powertrain options.BYD Seagull – InteriorThere is a smaller battery pack option now that allows for a more aggressive pricing strategy. So, the 2025 BYD Seagull starts from CNY 69,800 (Rs 8 lakh) for base Vitality Edition with 30.08 kWh battery. Top-spec Flying Edition gets a larger 38.88 kWh battery and costs CNY 85,800 (Rs 10 lakh).2025 BYD Seagull electric car dimensions continue the same as they used to be – 3780 mm in length, 1715 mm in width, 1540 mm in height and has a wheelbase of 2500 mm. Where design changes with facelift is concerned, there aren’t any in the front. So, the fascia remains intact. The Build Your Dreams lettering at the back has been replaced with BYD lettering.BYD Seagull -FasciaBase Vitality Edition gets 15-inch steel wheels with wheel covers. Whereas Freedom Edition and Flying Edition come with 16-inch aluminium alloy wheels. There are four exterior colours on offer – Arctic Blue, Warm Sun White, Polar Night Black and Peach Pink. BYD also offers interior colour options – Deep Ocean Blue and Dune Pink.On the inside, features list remains more or less the same with a few feature additions here and there. Freedom Edition and Flying Edition come equipped with mobile wireless charger, heated front seats and electrically adjustable driver’s seats. Notable features like the 7-inch instrument screen and 10.1-inch rotatable infotainment screen stays the same.2025 BYD Seagull -FrontNew powertrain optionsA major reason for the price revision with 2025 BYD Seagull is due to the new powertrain options. Base Vitality Edition and mid-spec Freedom Edition get a smaller 30.08 kWh battery pack with around 305 km of range from a single charge. The top-spec Flying Edition, on the other hand, gets a larger 38.8 kWh battery pack with 405 km claimed range on a single charge.The sole electric motor driving front wheels continues to remain as is with a 0-50 km/h sprint in 4.9 seconds.

Bajaj already sells a multitude of Pulsars across multiple displacements and body styles. There is a new Pulsar in the works that should carry a 125cc engine and might launch around the festive season. Let’s take a look.Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied AgainIf we take Bajaj’s sales performance, Pulsar is the best-selling model, sidelining other sub brands. But if we break the sales in terms of displacement, it is the 125cc Pulsars that outsell every other type of Bajaj offerings. Bajaj is now coming up with a new 125cc Pulsar that should push sales envelope even further.Bajaj Pulsar N125 Spied AgainCurrently, Bajaj sells Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125. The range will see a new addition with what is believed to be a Bajaj Pulsar N125. Spotted testing on multiple occasions, Bajaj Pulsar N125 will be the most sporty 125cc Pulsar from Bajaj and is expected to weigh a lot less than the 144kg Pulsar NS125.Latest test mule sighting from The Fat Biker, show more details about this upcoming vehicle. For starters, it looks a lot more aggressive in its design which should pit it directly against Hero Xtreme 125R and TVS Raider 125.[embedded content]We can see accentuated tank shrouds for aggression, there seems to be front fork covers for a muscular appeal, there is stacked LED headlight setup, Pulsar-style split LED tail light setup, split seat design with a stepped pillion seat, tyre hugger, stylish single-piece grab rail, front disc brake, same alloy wheels as Pulsar P150 and other elements.Indicators are still halogen bulbs with the upcoming Bajaj Pulsar N125, while Hero is offering LED ones in Xtreme 125R.

We can see an underbelly exhaust with Pulsar N125 and a 5-speed gearbox will do duties.Features-wise, Bajaj Pulsar N125 will get a reverse LCD fully digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity.

      Electric Scooter Owner Annoyed With Rs 8,000 Bill – Says His 10 Yr Old Car Has Lower Service Cost

      by

      Ather Electric Scooter Owner Shares Service BillThe tweet has gone viral – Ather service team has called the owner and offered free service if the tweet is deletedApart from fuel cost savings, EVs also promise lower maintenance costs. This is often attributed to fewer moving parts of EVs in comparison to ICE vehicles. However, user experiences reveal that EVs too can have high maintenance costs in specific cases.Ather owner gets Rs 8,000 maintenance billWith a maintenance bill of Rs 8,000, one would expect that the scooter could have faced some major damage due to an accident. However, that is not the case. According to the owner, there is no damage to the scooter of any sort. It seems like the issue has occurred due to the normal wear and tear of the scooter. Although EVs have fewer moving parts, they do have components like electric motor, fans and pulleys that are susceptible to damage.Ather offers free service if tweet is deletedIn this case, the Ather electric scooter is around 4 years old. It has clocked 13,398 km on the odometer. In normal circumstances and in most cases, major repairs are not usually required for two-wheelers at this stage. This is applicable for both electric and ICE scooters.So, when someone gets a maintenance bill of Rs 8,000, it is bound to create a shock. Ather is known for its reliability and high quality. And when top brands do not match expectations, it creates significant disappointment.10 yr car has lower service bill – Ather ownerCharging error P014According to the Ather owner, his scooter’s charging stopped and a P014 error started to show. At the service centre, multiple problems were identified. The warranty applicable on the affected parts was only for one year. As a result, the owner had no option other than to get the costly parts replaced.Ather electric scooter owner replying to questions of surprised enthusiastsThe owner is also disappointed due to the fact that he was among the early adopters of Ather electric scooter. Another point noted by the owner is that he has been trying to get the Ather Service pack for the last two months. But he wasn’t able to do that. If the service pack was active, the maintenance bill would have been lower.Ather electric scooter owner replyingResponse from other usersIn response to the alleged inflated maintenance bill, other users have shared their personal experiences. Some say that the high maintenance cost is a real issue with first-gen Ather scooters. One user, who was among the first 100 pre-order list, says that his scooter’s mid assembly was replaced. There was no option to repair it. As a result, the replacement cost came at Rs 16,000.Another user has shared a screenshot, showing his Ather scooter clocking 27,392 km. The owner says that he has paid only Rs 6,646 on maintenance costs. Some car users have also shared screenshots, saying that their car service bill is less than the Rs 8,000 charged by Ather service centre. Even the said Ather electric scooter owner tweeted that his 10 year old car has a lower service bill.Ather electric scooter owner replyingThis is not the first time an Ather owner has shared their disapproval over high service costs. Earlier too a similar situation had arose when an Ather electric scooter owner had tweeted that the service cost of his Ather is same as his Kia EV6. More
