The upcoming automatic scooter is placed in straight line of competition with the likes of Suzuki Access, Mahindra Rodeo and TVS Jupiter, all from the 125 cc segment of automatic scooters.
The scooter shall get a full metal body with a sharp design and the instrument cluster gets an all digital panel. The well designed structure ensures a comfortable ride over long distances. Moreover, superior level of comfort has been attained owing to new features like telescoping front suspension, 5-Spoke alloy rims with 12 inch rear wheel and 10 inch front wheel.
