Chennai-based automotive major TVS Motor Company has partnered Noise, a leading Indian lifestyle brand, to introduce a first-of-its-kind innovation: an electric vehicle-smartwatch integration.
The new feature connects TVS's iQube electric scooter with a custom Noise smartwatch, offering riders real-time access to key vehicle information directly from their wrist.
The special edition smartwatch acts as a mobility companion, providing riders with instant updates on their electric scooter’s status, including battery level, tyre pressure and estimated range. The integration also includes important safety features like tow alerts and crash detection, giving riders a smarter and more connected experience.
This collaboration marks a significant step forward in India's mobility sector, transforming the smartwatch from a simple lifestyle accessory into a practical tool for daily commutes. The new smartwatch will be sold exclusively on the TVS iQube official website.
With over 650,000 units sold, the TVS iQube is already a leader in the Indian EV market. This partnership with Noise aims to enhance the customer experience by providing seamless access to vehicle data, empowering riders with the information they need for a safer and more convenient journey.
Key Features of the EV-Smartwatch Integration:
- Vehicle Status Monitoring: Riders can check if their scooter is locked, unlocked, on a ride, or charging directly from the watch.
- Battery and Range Info: The smartwatch displays the State of Charge (SoC), including visual cues for charging progress and the Distance to Empty (DTE) to help riders plan their trips.
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPMS): The watch provides live pressure values for both tyres, with alerts for low pressure on select models.
- Charging Updates: Get real-time updates on charging progress, including the time it will take to reach a full charge and a ‘Charging Complete’ notification.
- Safety Alerts: The system includes Tow/Theft Alerts with haptic and visual prompts if motion is detected, as well as Crash/Fall Detection that sends an on-wrist alert followed by a notification to a linked mobile app.
- Geofence Notifications: Riders receive an alert if their vehicle crosses a predefined boundary.
- Low/Full Charge Alerts: The watch notifies you when it's time to connect or unplug the charger.
- Safety Visual Cues: Color-coded tiles (green for optimal, red for attention) provide quick, easy-to-understand updates to help minimise distractions while riding.
