Is the Hop Electric LYF still available?

No. Hop Electric withdrew the LYF in 2024 after selling it since 2021. Dealers sometimes hold unregistered stock for a few months after a model goes; after that it is a used buy.

What was the price of the Hop Electric LYF?

The LYF last listed between ₹74,999 and ₹89,999 ex-showroom Delhi across 2 variants. Used prices depend on year, mileage and condition; a two- to three-year-old example typically changes hands at 60–75% of that.

What is the real range of the LYF?

The certified range is 80 km. Expect 65–75% of that in everyday riding.

How much does the LYF cost to run per month?

Charging works out to about ₹0.15 per km in Delhi, so a 30 km daily commute costs roughly ₹116 a month before servicing.

How long does the LYF take to charge?

About 3.3 hours for a full charge from a home socket.

Is the LYF suitable for short riders?

Yes. Seat height is 790 mm, low for the class, so riders around 5'2" and above can reach the ground comfortably.

LYF or Dio: which is better?

The Dio is ₹179 less expensive to start. Pick the LYF for students without a licence, the Dio for first scooter. Our side-by-side comparison covers every spec.

Which bikes are cheaper than the LYF?

Among the 89 electric scooters we have reviewed, the Wolf (₹61,877), the Drift (₹71,283), the Edge (₹67,484) start lower.

Is it still worth buying a used LYF today?

Only if the price is right and you can verify the battery's remaining health, since electric-scooter batteries degrade with age and this model has been out of production since 2024. Ask the seller for the battery's charge cycles or remaining range, not just its warranty paperwork.

Can I still get parts and service for a discontinued LYF?

Hop Electric's current lineup, including the LEO, uses similar underpinnings, so common wear parts should still be sourced, but confirm with a Hop Electric service centre near you before buying rather than assuming nationwide coverage. Battery replacement cost, if the original has degraded, is the single biggest thing to budget for.

In short

The Hop Electric LYF was a 25kmph-capped, no-licence electric scooter sold from 2021 to 2024, priced from ₹74,999 (ex-showroom) with an 80km claimed range. It carried a long features list for the money, including cruise control and a removable battery, but used a rear drum brake and has been out of Hop Electric's current lineup for some time.

What works

80km claimed range and a removable battery for easy home charging
Cruise control, keyless start and OTA updates are rare at this price
65kg kerb weight makes it very easy to manoeuvre and park

What doesn't

Rear drum brake instead of a disc, unlike Hop's current LEO
25kmph cap limits it to slow, local roads only
Discontinued since 2024, so dealer stock and support have likely thinned

Best for: Students without a licence, Short local errands

Last prices and variants

The last ex-showroom Delhi list prices before Hop Electric withdrew the model in 2024.

The LYF was sold in 2 variants, from ₹74,999 for the Basic to ₹89,999 for the Extended, ex-showroom Delhi, at the time it was withdrawn in 2024.

Against the 88 electric scooters on sale today its last price would sit 17th from the cheapest. The closest current bikes on price are the Reo (₹71,999) and the Zing (₹71,985); those are the new-bike alternatives to weigh a used LYF against.

Variant	Basic	Extended
Ex-showroom	₹74,999	₹89,999+₹15,000
Rough EMI	₹2,380/mo	₹2,850/mo
Riding Range	80 km	120 km

Range and charging

The LYF is rated at 80 km (certified IDC range). Treat that as a ceiling: real-world figures are usually 15–25% lower.

Running cost per month and five-year ownership estimate

Motor and ride

The LYF's 2 kW motor is the 54rd most powerful among the 77 electric scooters here and takes it to a top speed of 25 km/h, which limits it to city use.

A full charge from a home socket takes about 3.3 hours. The battery is removable, so it can be charged indoors if you cannot park near a plug.

Chassis hardware includes a combi-brake system, with a disc, 2 piston caliper up front and drum at the rear.

At 790 mm the seat is average for the class; most riders from 5'5" up will be comfortable at stops.

Our review

Riding impressions and the buying advice a spec sheet cannot give.

Verdict

The LYF was Hop Electric's earlier take on the 25kmph no-licence scooter formula, sold from 2021 to 2024 from ₹74,999 (ex-showroom) with an 80km claimed range. It packed in cruise control, keyless start, a removable battery and OTA updates well ahead of what most scooters at this price offered, though it used a rear drum brake rather than a disc.

Riding it every day

At 65kg it is extremely light and easy to park or wheel through a crowded society gate, and the 25kmph cap keeps it firmly in slow, local-roads territory rather than arterial traffic. The 80km claimed range should cover a few days of short errands before the 3.3-hour charge is needed, and the removable battery avoids the hassle of finding outdoor charging points. The rear drum brake is the one obvious compromise, needing more lever effort in the wet than a disc would.

What to know before buying

Since production ended in 2024, the single biggest question on a used LYF is battery health; ask for charge-cycle history or test the real-world range rather than trusting the original claimed figure. Hop Electric's current range, including the LEO, shares enough underpinnings that service and common parts should still be available through their centres, but confirm locally before committing.

Who should buy it

A budget buyer comfortable with the risk of an ageing EV battery, who wants a cheap, licence-free scooter for short trips rather than a daily commuter needing long-term certainty.

On safety kit the LYF has combi-brake (cbs), front disc brake, tubeless tyres and hazard lamps. There is no ABS, which is legal at this engine size but worth knowing before a wet-weather ride.

Against Dio, Destini 110 or Ryder, it gets combi-brake (cbs), front disc brake, led tail lamp and turn-by-turn navigation that most rivals skip.

It is offered in 4 colours: Silver, Red, Blue and Black. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.

Warranty, service and ownership

Standard warranty is 3 years, unlimited km. The battery is covered separately for 3 years or 30,000 km; read the degradation clause, since most policies only replace a pack that drops below 70% capacity.

Hop Electric runs a limited sales and service network in India, at roughly 100 touchpoints. Check the nearest workshop before buying if you live outside a metro; a 40 km ride for every service adds up.

Hop Electric sold the LYF new from 2021 until 2024, long enough for spares and workshop familiarity to be no problem for years yet. Warranty on a used example depends on what is left of the original term; service intervals and parts pricing are unchanged by the model being withdrawn.
