Okinawa Praise Price in Vizianagaram

This might be a bit long.
Okinawa is the china set for scooter. They should rebrand themselves as sigmatel.
This is a cheap chinese scooter rebranded as indian, the charger and internals are written in chinese. Why tell lies, if it's made in china say so, why the subterfuge. It's most likely manufactured in china and assembled in India. This is like old tech 2014-15 hero electric kind of scooter. So much for make in India and boycott china.
Weak plastic body is see-through in sunlight, poor headlight visibility is barely 10 meter in dark it's dangerous to ride this as potholes or people aren't visible. The disk brakes are bad and it's constantly rubbing eating battery and brake pads.
Lead acid battery lasts 6000kms only costs 30k to replace, lithium ion battery is also very bad, they are using old lithium cells which fail after the warranty is over.
The service center is the worst, most of the time they are closed, and they get commission for servicing the scooter by tearing out the coupons and sending them to okinawa without actually servicing any scooter. Okinawa you're cheating and also getting cheated. They are using children as mechanic that is not just unethical but also illegal as they are working with 70 volts dc which is dangerous. No warranty or repair possible because dealers only sell it and don't know how to service it. The company doesn't care for its image as it's only cares about selling more and more.
Mr okinawa is a fool if he thinks he'll get rich by doing this . Tighten up your ship sir. Here's some business advice from a loser to an idiot, how does hero exist today? huh? is it because of its amazing engineering? exquisite build quality, best in class performance? nope none of those. Hero or formerly hero Honda was and is successful because it could be fixed easily and readily even though they made crap, that crap was cheap crap and that cheap crap can be easily fixed by buying some cheap crap and replacing the crapped crap part and you're good to go on your crappy bike on the crappy road to the other crappy part of this crappy country. They didn't just sell the bikes and bolted. They made service center everywhere. Even in the craphole town I call home there are 3 hero showrooms nearby and one Honda showroom but you Mr. okinawa sold about 10-15 scooters here then shut shop and went abracadabra. I can't get my front brake pads replaced so i now await my death or someone else's death because i can't have front brakes anymore. Also no rear brake warning light because life is short so okinawa policy is to make it even shorter unlike people from okinawa who live very long lives, yes I've read your bullshit business man bites from various auto media outlets.
If Mr. okinawa wants to remain in the market it'll have to improve its manners and mindset of providing proper after sales service and spares and repair, make battery station etc or okinawa will be nothing but a sigmatel, china set owners will recognize that name.
Service center is denying warranty for rear brake light switch and saying i will have to fix it elsewhere. How indian government is allowing such malpractice against consumer and buyers is appalling.
The hub motor is weak and only capable upto 50 km/h max. But the speedo shows 70 plus hilarious. The motor bearings used are so cheap that it got bent during running and now the wheel wobbles and rubs with the disc brake pads.
Fake speedometer and odometer shows exaggerated numbers.
Charging the lead acid battery takes 7 hours minimum. The lithium also takes surprisingly long about 4-5 hrs.
Battery capacity meter is also wrong doesn't show range left or energy left. There is no bms so it can go boom during charging and running. There's no battery or motor cooling so they overheat during use.
Battery meter just shows 5 bars which shows full when standing and drinks completely when running.
Suspension is un-adjustable and extremely poor, front is too soft and sags completely on sitting one person and rear is too hard and has very low travel. The scooter weighs 170kg feels like handling a royal enfield on cycle tyres. The handle wobbles dangerously in speeds above 40kph on uneven roads.
they are asking 90k plus for this crap.
I lost more money on battery than saving on petrol.
If you want to throw away money buy this. After owning this scooter for 2 years i feel like a sigmatel china set owner.

About the Reviewer

Really horrible experience after having this bike for the last one year ..every other day some wire connection gets loosened and due to it the bike stops anywhere on the road and even after servicing the same problem continues every next day. I really don’t recommend this vehicle to anyone ..waste of money and energy 😞

3. Love the look..cant distinguish the scooty and this one unless we saw number plate. Performance is ok ok ..not so good... because motor power is less.
4. Service is good in Bhubaneswar.
