        I really like this scooter. It has a few minor issues, but nothing that affects daily use. The performance is more than adequate for city rides, and I've also taken it on highway trips. I've covered over 5,500 km in just 5 months and managed to save around ₹11,000 on petrol. I highly recommend it for local commuting and simple daily activities. While the charging time is a bit long, it’s not a problem for me — I charge it overnight, and it easily lasts a day or two based on my usage.

        The Ampere Magnus has delivered a very poor performance in my experience. Within just 2 years, both the battery and controller went out of service. The pickup is very low, and the mileage is disappointing — around 60 km on a full charge, which drops to just 40 km with double load. Overall, it feels like a wasteful investment.

        It’s a good-performing scooter and suitable for smooth driving. The maintenance cost is not very high. In my four years of riding, I haven’t faced any problems, and the service center has also been cooperative.

        The Ampere Magnus is one of the best bikes in the electric segment. It offers an incredibly smooth ride, heavy comfort, and top-tier features that make it stand out in its class. I’m very happy with its performance and would definitely recommend it to friends and family. From comfort to features, everything about this scooter is just right best in class.
