Mahindra Two Wheelers Ltd (MTWL), a part of the US $14.4 billion Mahindra Group, continued to build its presence in the two-wheeler segment, in March 2012. The company’s recently launched Duro DZ scooter has received an incredible customer response across India with more than 10,000 units sold in March alone, resulting in an over 200% growth for the product, over February 2012. “The fact that retail volumes for the new Duro DZ have more than doubled in March has proved that consumers across the country have appreciated the product’s ‘Romba Solid’ value proposition which makes it the most suitable 125 cc scooter for tough Indian roads.  Last month, we had offered to pay Rs. 500/- to any person who `test rides’ the new Mahindra Duro DZ and yet, decides to buy a scooter from a competing brand. This reflected the confidence we have in the Duro DZ.

This unique challenge, was launched in key cities in South India, and received an overwhelming response with customers clearly preferring the Romba Solid Duro DZ. This month we are renewing and extending this challenge nationally” said Mr. Viren Popli, Senior V.P. Strategy and Market Development, Mahindra Two Wheelers. The company’s cumulative scooter sales from April 2011 to March 2012 stood at 1,34,570 units. Sales in March 2012 were 12,750 units. Mahindra Two Wheelers’ powerful 125 cc scooters cater to a range of consumer segments. Mahindra Duro DZ is positioned as a solid family scooter, while the Mahindra Rodeo with its very innovative, contemporary features is popular amongst young people of the country. The Mahindra Flyte is the Indian woman’s two-wheeler of choice.

It is a powerful machine...

I use this from last 5 years. it gives me average of 45 kmpl . I have completed many long drives on it about 200 km in a day. And not fase more problems.. one time it become heated after only 75 km and ones it become over flow on highway after filling full tank.. these are two bad incidents when my scooter disappointed me... Till now I have traveled 35000kms and no any issues (cap of my petrol tank has Brocken aur mai aaj tak isko badal nahi paya kyuki mil hi nahi pa rahi, aur maine bahut prayaas bhi nahi kiya ).. it's good scooter for long drive... ?? ?????? ?????? ??? ?? ????? ????? ????? ?????
