I am a proud owner of Mahindra Rodeo. I purchased it on Nov 2009 and so far ran 4500 kms. I must say it’s a very good scooter. I got 40 kmpl in city traffic which is heavy in Salem and 45-49 in long rides. I also run it in hills area and I get 33 kmpl in hills. I have a problem of back pain. Rodeo riding very smooth it rarely occurs now. It’s looks are also great. The handling and control of this vehicle is good. Even at high speed braking it never skids. The only problem I faced is the ground clearance. I overcame it by slow down the speed to 10 km and crossing the speed brakers.
The build quality of the scooter is average only. The scratches are also felt. They should build with better fiber and also do a good paint job.
It’s a good scooter with lot of goodies. So, go for it.
