We started life with a Bajaj Sunny and graduated to a Kinetic Honda and then the Kinetic Nova and then switched loyalties. The kinetic family vehicles in 2003, 04 & 05 seemed to be made with a view "What more do you want for this price?" in such an atmosphere, the Scooty Pep plus was a refreshing delight.
Now, I own a Scooty for 4 years now and this does the job very well. It is very easy for the ladies to drive. Mileage is 35 kmpl and comfort is unmatched even I sit behind!!! Also, most important consideration is servicing. The service station is not so busy that I get appointments after 30 and 45 days. That means they have sufficient space to service a large number of vehicles and the vehicles are relatively trouble free.
In the past 4 years, I have spent money only on oil change and basic servicing for my Scooty Pep +. No money spent on spare parts, i.e. no breakages, no damages, no wear out. Also, whenever, I go to give my Scooty for servicing, I see more of the big brothers, Apache, Victor, etc. but hardly any Scooty’s.
The storage space is unmatched in this easy vehicle. And speeds are not so high that you can have serious accidents unless you are trying to kill yourself. And I am a heavy weight and so are others in our family. For a payload of 190 kilos the vehicle giving 35 kmpl is great I feel. Overall, I am a Scooty pep + fan and will continue to stay so!!!
