Specifications
The Yamaha Fascino is powered by an air-cooled, single-cylinder 113cc engine which develops 7.1PS at 7500rpm and a peak torque of 8.1Nm at 5000rpm. The scooter gets an underbone-type chassis with telescopic suspension at the front and a monoshock unit at the rear. It gets drum brakes on both the ends and the 10-inch steel wheels have been wrapped with tubeless tyres both at the front and rear. Fuel tank capacity stands at 5.2 litres, and since it employs fibre panels, the scooter tips the scale at just 103kg.
Competitors
Hero Duet: The Hero Duet is another scooter that is focussed towards women riders. It might not be as stylish as the Fascino, but what it gets is better features that make it a more useful scooter to live with. Hero’s extensive dealership network means that you wouldn’t have to worry about after sales also.
TVS Wego: The Wego is a stylish and lightweight scooter that has been positioned to please women buyers. The Wego gets an exhaustive feature list including the external fuel filler cap which is a very useful trait. TVS has also priced it competitively and the 110cc engine is frugal and peppy as well.
ZigSays
The Yamaha Fascino makes good sense if you’re in the market for a stylish scooter option that will help you stand out. The Yamaha motor offers decent refinement levels while being very reliable also. Mileage could have been better and we would have preferred to see more features, but then again what the Fascino offers is a dash of style at an affordable price point.
