After the huge success of recently launched Apache RTR 180 & Flame SR125, Flame DS125 TVS India has launched all new gearless scooter - The Wego. It is powered by a new 110cc engine which also powers the TVS Jive. The 110cc engine generates maximum power of 8.4 Bhp at 7500 rpm with 8 Nm of torque at 5500 rpm. TVS has good experience in manufacturing scooterettes with automatic trasmission as they are selling TVS Scooty Variants in good numbers. But Scooty is generally considered by only female buyers and TVS wants to capture the market of Suzuki Access & Honda Aviator which are unisex scooter. Though Wego has nothing very unique and different in terms of style and technology in comparison to its rivals but it can be very successful as it has been priced very competitively.
