Good enough to satisfy my desired scooty
As of now I'm riding this from about 6-7 months, now I can definately say it's good enough to give you your desired comfort. Incomparable with the other scooters in this segment. Battery performance is good but wish the should be more long lasting. But it has some laging features like a noise from the front case of the scooty and moreover they didn't provide the foot pad. Incase you wish to ride with a lady wearing saree, it slightly can be a problem for you.

Unique Beast
I’ve travelled 4300kms in 6 months. Loved riding it in and around Bengaluru. Very comfortable. Wish the battery options would allow us stretch to 150 kms. The acceleration in exp mode is pretty low but the ride mode is perfect! The body protection is very well designed that no fall would impact the body.

Economic Game-changer in Scooter Industry of 🇮🇳
Best Maxi Scooter ever made to be created by Hero Motocorp for making a history in the scooter Industry of 🇮🇳, making a game-changer in the economy of the scooter Industry. I would like to recommend all the scooter Lovers (or Scooter Enthusiasts) of 🇮🇳, especially the ones who even love solo road trips to buy the Hero Xoom 160. If European and South-east asian countries can have maxi scooters for sale, then why can't 🇮🇳 have maxi scooters for sale. It's high time to promote the sale of maxi scooters in India in huge number in each and every corner of the country.
