VLF Mobster 135 Launched in India at Rs 1.30 Lakh - Check Details

Italian-origin brand Velocifero, through its Indian partner Motohaus has launched the VLF Mobster 135 in India. The scooter is priced at Rs 1.30 lakh (ex-showroom) for the first 2,500 customers. Prices beyond this initial batch are yet to be announced.

This pricing puts the Mobster close to larger-capacity scooters such as the Yamaha Aerox 155 (Rs 1.38 lakh) and Hero Xoom 160 (Rs 1.37 lakh), while placing it above the TVS Ntorq 150, which starts at Rs 1.09 lakh.

The VLF Mobster 135 is powered by a 125cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 11.9 bhp at 8,250 rpm and 11.7 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The company claims a top speed of 105 kmph. This makes it the smallest-capacity scooter in India with liquid cooling, a feature usually reserved for higher-capacity models.

The scooter uses an infinitely variable transmission (IVT) and has an 8-litre fuel tank. It weighs 122 kg, has a wheelbase of 1,341 mm, and offers 155 mm ground clearance. Seat height is 797 mm.

In terms of design, The Mobster carries a styling approach similar to some European scooters, with low-mounted headlights and compact proportions. It rides on 12-inch wheels fitted with 120/70 front and 130/70 rear tyres. Suspension duties are managed by a telescopic front fork and gas-charged dual rear shock absorbers. Braking hardware includes a 230 mm front disc and 220 mm rear disc. VLF Mobster 135 is available in four colour choices: Crimson Override, Ghostlight, Ash Circuit and Neon Venom.

The Mobster is equipped with dual-channel ABS and traction control, both of which can be switched off. These features are uncommon in the 125cc scooter category in India. It also comes with a 5-inch TFT display that supports Bluetooth connectivity and offers keyless ignition. A dashcam is available as an optional accessory.
