Common Questions

❓ Frequently asked questions

Which is the best bike in India in 2026? ▾
The best bike depends on what "best" means to you: lowest running cost (Hero Splendor / Honda Shine 100), best value-for-money (Bajaj Pulsar 150 / TVS Raider 125), top performance (KTM Duke 390 / Aprilia RS 457), or longest range EV (Ultraviolette F77 / Ola S1 Pro). The list above is ranked by overall ownership-cost score and rider rating combined.
What is the most fuel-efficient bike in India? ▾
Hero Splendor Plus, Bajaj Platina 110 and Honda Shine 100 deliver above 70 kmpl real-world mileage on petrol. For electric, Ola S1 Air and TVS iQube achieve 150–200 kmpl-equivalent on running cost.
Which bike has the lowest maintenance cost in India? ▾
110–125cc commuters from Hero, Honda and TVS have the lowest yearly maintenance cost — typically ₹3,000–₹5,000 per year including all services and wear-part replacement in the first 5 years.
How do you rank bikes on this page? ▾
We rank by a composite ownership-cost score that combines: ex-showroom price, real-world mileage (not ARAI), 5-year service + maintenance cost, insurance premium, and projected resale value. Rider ratings and feature score then break ties between similarly-priced models.
What is the real cost of owning a bike in India? ▾
Total monthly cost = EMI + fuel + service + insurance + depreciation. For a typical ₹1 lakh commuter financed over 36 months, expect ₹4,500–₹6,500/month all-in. Use the EMI / ownership-cost calculator on any bike's detail page for exact numbers based on your tenure, city and usage.
