While the former is a modern-looking sports maxi scooter, the latter is more of a neo-retro offering. Prices for both scooters are the same at Rs 2.99 lakh (ex-showroom) while the 18.7bhp, 278.2cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled motor is also common. Where they are different is in the styling and features department.
