TVS Wego Available With Front Disc Brake

TVS Motor has launched the 2013 version of their popular gearless scooter, the Wego. The main new feature in this new version is that the Wego gets a front disc brake. The disc brake though is not a standard feature, but an optional extra. Not many new features have been added by TVS to the Wego apart from this. The Wego is a pretty successful model in the Indian market with good sales. This scooter is a good alternative in the 110cc segment, offering a frugal engine.

The TVS Wego is powered by a 110cc engine producing 8 HP of power and 8 Nm of torque. It has a V-Matic transmission and a 5-litre fuel tank. The disc brake on the Wego costs an extra Rs. 3000/- as it is not a standard feature. The 2013 TVS Wego has been launched at a price of Rs. 50,000 (ex-showroom). The only other scooter with a disc brake apart from this in India is the Honda Aviator, which is a premium 110cc scooter. But it costs more than Rs. 56,000/- (ex-showroom).

This makes the TVS Wego quite a good proposition which has a value for money price tag as well. The next offering from TVS is going to be a bigger scooter which will be more masculine in character and aimed towards men. It will wear a higher price tag than the Wego and will be powered by a 125cc engine. TVS will also re-launch the Victor motorcycle later this year, along with bringing out the first hybrid scooter, the Qube, to the market.
