Dual headlights operate independently, the right side projecting the high beam, and switching over the other for the low beam requirements. The dashboard features a 6-in-1 meter displaying the fuel gauge, rpm, temperature, speedo-meter and a clock.
With an underseat storage compartment able to store one street-legal open-face helmet, the new scoot has a battery power cut-off switch below its seat as an additional security feature. An anti-clockwise twist of the ignition key would pop-open the fuel filler cap automatically, and the seat key lock is situated rear-ward on the pillion’s left side of the bike. A retractable foot-rest is provided for the pillion.
Churning-out a maximum power output of 10.99kW/14.74hp at 8,000rpm, and a 14.94Nm of torque peaking at 6,500 rpm, the bike is offered in white, black and red. On-the-road pricing is still subjected to the MOF’s approval, but is anticipated to be around below RM8,500.00
