Along with the Rodeo, Mahindra would launch another scooter called Duro. The duro will spearhead the Mahindra in the performance scooter segment. Unlike the Rodeo, Duro styling is attributed by its dynamic character. Though Mahindra – Sym could have avoided the squarish structures like headlamps and turn indicators. The rakish apron is embedded with turn indicators. The front fender is chunky and houses 3.5*10 tyres. The wide floorboard tapers back to meet its pair of pillion footrests. The body panel flows upwards and culminates in an attractive tail. The tail section sports fin like structure for air intakes. Below the fins is the large tail lamp bounded by turn indicators on both sides. The body coloured pillion grab rail adds the charm. The Duro is young and dynamic.
Instrumentation is very simple and basic. The sporty white dials with orange needles looks nice. But unlike the Rodeo or the flyte, the duro is not featuristic it lacks vital features like front fuelling. To top up fuel, you have to get down and open the seat. The end result is the compromised underseat storage. The seats are soft and wide. Duro uses telescopic fork at the front and swing arm the rear. Duro sport drum brakes at both front and rear.
Electric start is part of standard package. The duro comes with closed glove box to store your knick knacks. Similar to flyte, Mahindra – Sym may offer duro with an industry leading three year warranty. Though we do not know the number of colours the duro will be available – this white one is addictive.
