With the launch of the Zontes 350 D, the maxi-scooter industry in Europe has grown competitive and intriguing. While having a huge engine displacement, this scooter is more designed for commuting within cities than between them. What exactly does the package include, then? We'll give you the fast rundown now.

Zontes, a Chinese manufacturer, has made its debut in India and is now selling five bikes based on the same engine and frame architecture. One of the maxi-scooters the brand displayed at Auto Expo 2023, the 350D, has now been introduced in Europe.

Engine

A 349cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine producing 36.2hp at 7,500 rpm and 38Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm powers the Zontes 350D. It weighs 188kg when its 12-litre petrol tank is completely stocked.

With these performance stats, it competes with the BMW C 400 GT maxi-scooter, which is about 26 kg lighter yet still capable of producing identical peak output figures.

Features and Specification

It offers amenities like keyless ignition, a colour TFT dash, two USB charging ports (type-A and type-C), a tyre pressure monitoring system, two riding modes (Sport and Eco), traction control, and even an electronically adjustable windscreen, just like all Zontes bikes produced in India.

Zontes 350D maxi-scooter launch in India

The Zontes 350D is currently priced at €4,787 (approximately Rs 4.2 lakh), which places it in the same price bracket as a KTM 390 Duke in foreign markets.

Rivals

The Yamaha Aerox 155, Keeway Vieste 300, Keeway Sixties 300i, and the BMW C 400 GT are your only options in India's extremely specialised maxi-scooter sector.

If the Zontes 350D does arrive here, it will almost definitely be much less expensive than its main competition, the Rs 10.75 lakh BMW C 400 GT.
