I bought my brown Wego in October 2010. After using this beautiful vehicle for 13 months and 2500 kms running I am writing this review. The price, colours, specifications are easily available on net sonot wasting space for that, what I am writing is a user’s review.
As other Wego owners on this portal I also faced few problems. First was a cold start problem. I always start my Wego with kick start in the morning. As it is a carburetor technology it requires chock in cold weather. To avoid this problem you can get the carburetor tuned from the service centre BUT it will affect your mileage. So it is advisable to use chock.
Second problem I faced was my Wego used to stalls in mid traffic and I have to rush the service centre to get the mechanic there. I should mention the excellent service of TVS at Dombivli, Maharashtra. The reason of stalling is some foreign matter in the carburetor. So, as per the advice of the service centre I tried 3-4 petrol pumps and with trial and error method I finalize on one petrol station. It is 6kms. From my home but it is worth fuelling your vehicle there than getting stalled in traffic.
One more thing, if your Wego stalls on the road and refused to start, get down from the vehicle, put it on the main stand, open the fuel lid and kick start with lid open. Many times it works. The reason behind is, the fuel cap is designed for some ventilation and if that ventilation blocks, the engine will stop. By opening the lid you are providing the air to make the petrol flow.
Another problem was many times it refused to start. Once the fuse(located below the seat, you have to remove the front panel with air vents) became loose and second time the break switch was not functioning proper and the culprit was not the TVS engineering but very bad roads of my city. The bumpy ride has created the problem.
Now the mileage. I drive at 20-25 km/h in city traffic and Wego gives me 33km/l. I took my Wego on long drive also. We visited Ballaleshwar(Ashtavinayak) at Pali on my Wego. Total distance we covered on this drive was 222 km. and the fuel average was 56.7 km/l with 125 kg passenger load and speedo always in ECONOMY zone.
I will strongly recommend Wego for noiseless excellent travel.
Update after 22 months: All the problems are solved and my Wego is running smoothly. It starts with one kick. Original battery is still strong. I always start it with kick start in the morning and afterwards button start. After shifting to new big premises service centre at Dombivli has lost the quality, it is just wash and hand over kind of thing, so I switched to my mechanic and I get all work done under my supervision.
