Based on deep consumer insights, it deploys innovative technology to create a category defining product, which will provide exceptional value to customers looking for a 110cc scooter. After winning the hearts in North & West India, Gusto is being launched in Karnataka in time for the festive occasion and start of New Year." 
 
Dharmendra Mishra, Vice President – Sales and Customer Care, Mahindra Two Wheelers added, "The Italian styled Gusto is powered by the smooth & fuel efficient M-TEC engine. It is India’s first scooter with a Height Adjustable Seat. The telescopic suspension with air springs and 12- inch wheels give it a best-in-class ride experience. Other category-first features like Remote Flip Key, Find-Me Lamps and bright Halogen Head Lamp with LED Pilot Lamps, create amazing value."
