The Mahindra Gusto 125 is the flagship model in Mahindras line-up of scooters. Built on the same platform as the 110cc Gusto, the Gusto 125 comes equipped with a bigger and more powerful engine to help it take on the likes of the Suzuki Access 125 and the Honda Activa 125.
The Mahindra Gusto 125 looks identical to its younger sibling in terms of looks and styling, though it does get a host of dual-tone paint schemes to set it apart from the Gusto.
