The Zontes 350D is aimed at European customers looking for a capable scooter for both intercity travel and urban commuting. The model gets big, strong styling with dual LED headlamps and daytime running lights, a high windshield, and high running boards to keep you comfortable over long distances. The upgraded solo seat looks large and chiseled for rider and rear seat comfort.

The feature list for the Zontes 350D is equally interesting, with plenty to pack, including an electronically adjustable windscreen, tire pressure monitoring system, traction control, keyless ignition, adjustable stalks, and a TFT instrument console. The 350D has two riding modes – Eco and Sport. There’s also a lockable glove box, under-seat storage that can accommodate a full-size helmet, and two USB charging ports.

Power comes from a 349 cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine delivering 36 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 38 Nm of peak torque at 6,000 rpm. The electric motor is paired with the CVT unit. The curb weight is around 188kg, which makes it a pretty big scooter. The model rides on 15-inch front and 14-inch alloy wheels at the rear, with telescoping front forks with twin dampers at the rear. Stopping power comes from disc brakes with dual-channel ABS at both ends.

The Zontes 350D is priced at EUR 4,787 (approx. ¥422,000), making it an expensive proposition. India prices are expected to be similar, and the big scooter is likely to arrive in a fully assembled (CKD) kit. Aadishwar Auto Ride India (AARI) retails Zontes motorcycles in the country and will also launch a 350D if the company sees demand.
