      This is a fantastic scooter, perfect for both highway and city rides. It offers great mileage, stylish design, and good pickup. The 3S system, automatic indicator-off feature, and LED lights make it even better. On the highway, the mileage tests around 47–50 kmpl truly a super scooter.

      Okay, I like scooters. I am currently using a Hero Destini 110cc, 2016 model. I like it because it has full scooter power, good mileage, and is comfortable. The new model has a stylish design, 12-inch tires, and a bright headlight.
