I still remember the first scooty I ever bought for myself, one which I could call mine and not beg to borrow from my mother! I was heading off to college in Pune, and being a Mumbaikar, I decided to invest in one to compensate for the lack of local trains in the city. Having a trusted two-wheeler affords a sense of independence, it’s convenient to ride in city traffic and is low on maintenance. For a young millennial terrified of responsibility, these easy-going vehicles are an absolute need in everyday life.
Before you decide to buy a new scooty, prioritise your needs for the purchase first. For instance, if you are on a budget then opt for an automatic scooter which has been in the market for a while. The top deciding factors of your purchase boils down to three things: the market price, mileage and performance metrics.
