TVS WEGO Review:
Recently I have bought a new TVS WEGO and finished 1st service and used over 1800 kms.Now I would like to share my experience.
Riding comfort:
Always Wego is ready to start with Electric as well as Effortless Kick starter. Adequate pickup even with pillion rider on. New Body Balance Technology assures everyone a safe ride.
Able to take sharp turns;Manoeuvres with ease in Chennai traffic. Ensures very smooth ride and no vibration even at high speed . Broad tyres & large alloy wheel base give nice road grip. Stands straight and firm when you apply sudden breaks and no wobbling at all.
Gas filled rear suspension and proper seating position(Broad Seat and enough room for legs) provide the Pillion rider, the best comfort.
Effective front telescopic suspension gives the rider some extra comfort(If you are not comfortable, plz Check & adjust the steering).
Salient Features:
Good mileage for its category(Giving around 44 - 47 kms/Ltr in Chennai).
Even girls can park the vehicle on the Centre Stand effortlessly(New Pattern).
Bright halogen bulb headlight provided.(If you don’t get this effect, then adjust the focus).
Very low Engine/Silencer noise.
Aluminium body adds strength and durablity for long life.
Elegant LED tail lamp, Indicators and twin city lamps are of good type.
Major Defects:
No pass light is available to give signal and proceed first in the busy roads.
No Indicator is provided in the speedometer to know the battery’s On/Off position.
As per company’s advice you should not take this vehicle to very long trip(Trip meter is must for this purpose.But, it is not available here).
Instead of keeping the two small size helmet hooks(Absolutely Useless) under the seat assembly, they could have been kept outside with lock&key.
Minor Defects:
Very light and small size bag hook in the front side has to be upgraded.
It is better to have a big size side hook for ladies to hold firmly.
Rearside Petrol tank is gimmick and accessible only by the left hand users who may be able to open it without Getting Down from the vehicle.
Glowing Ring around the Ignition keyhole is another gimmick and not effective.
The optional mobile charger located inside the utility box is prone to engine heat that may damage your valuable mobile phones.
In Due Course:
Maintenance Free dry battery is good.But, it’s performance and life is left to seen after few months usage.As per the Catalogue, this MF battery may require some periodical voltage checking/recharging from the TVS Service Centre.
No choke is required so far.But, I didn’t get the opportunity to start this vehicle in the Monsoon and Winter Season.Then only we will come to know about the starting problems, if any.
Conclusion:
The cost of WEGO is on par with Suzuki Access 125CC.The price of Wego should be reduced, Because Suzuki is having higher engine power, pickup&speed than WEGO.
Males who prefer high speed, pickup and very long trip can opt either Suzuki Access or Honda Activa.
After considering all the pros and cons of this vehicle, I am of the opinion that WEGO is better than the other brand scooters available for unisex.
If TVS authorities overcome with the defects and reduce the price, then TVS WEGO can surely claim itself as the best and dominate the scooter field in the near future.
