VLF Mobster Electric Scooter India Launch On September 25, All You Need To Know
Last Updated: While full pricing, booking details, and in-depth specifications are being kept under wraps for now, these will be revealed at the launch event. Motohaus India has officially confirmed that the much-anticipated VLF Mobster will make its grand debut on 25 September 2025. The scooter is designed by acclaimed Italian designer Alessandro Tartarini. Furthermore, it will be unveiled in Pune before becoming available in select cities including Delhi, Bengaluru, Ahmedabad, Goa, and Lucknow. What makes the Mobster different? The Mobster features a liquid-cooled engine, dual-channel switchable ABS, and dual disc brakes. These elements are uncommon in many scooters currently on Indian roads, potentially offering riders more precise braking and consistent performance in varying conditions. The scooter's styling takes inspiration from aggressive street design, with sharp lines and a robust stance. Following the Pune launch, the Mobster will be sold through Motohaus showrooms in ten cities initially. The company has indicated plans to expand availability to more locations across India before the scooter's public release. Price and other details While the launch date is confirmed, Motohaus has yet to announce the price, booking process, and complete technical specifications. These are expected to be shared at the launch event in September. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

VLF Mobster Scooter India Launch Confirmed; Here's What We Know
Motohaus India has officially confirmed that the VLF Mobster scooter will be launched in the Indian market. This comes as part of the expansion plan of the brand after the launch of the VLF Tennis electric scooter in the country. With this move, Mobster will become the first ICE scooter of the brand in India. It is to be noted that the Italian brand has a strategic partnership with KAW Veloce Motors (KVM) for its locally assembly operations in Kolhapur. The VLF Mobster will bring an aggressive design to the table. It offers a muscular design with a twin-headlamp setup on the front apron, unlike any other scooter in the Indian market. Furthermore, the single-piece seat of the scooter is complemented by a unique design for the side panel, adding to the muscular look. It will be one of the key features separating the scooter from its rivals. All of this is complemented by a street bike-style wide handlebar. Apart from the design, the scooter also gets multiple components that place it as a premium offering in the market. It comes equipped with disc brake setup, telescopic front forks, rear dual shock absorbers, 12-inch alloy wheels covered in 120-section tyre at the front and 130-section tyre at the rear. Coming to the features, this sporty scooter has a 5-inch fully digital colour TFT display that allows for mobile screen mirroring, includes a USB charging port, has switchable dual-channel ABS, and offers a live dashcam feature, which should be useful for navigating Indian roads. Motohaus has yet to confirm whether this scooter will be powered by a 125cc engine or a 180cc engine. The 125cc engine provides 12 bhp and 11.7 Nm of torque, while the 180cc engine delivers 18 bhp and 15.7 Nm. Buyers can expect colour choices to include Grey, White, Red, and Yellow.

VLF Mobster scooter with built-in dashcam confirmed for launch this festive season
The VLF Mobster will be a highly stylised scooter and is likely to come with a 180 cc liquid-cooled engine producing around 17.7 bhp Check Offers Italian two-wheeler brand VLF (Velocifero) has announced it will be launching the Mobster scooter in the country during the festive season this year. The VLF Mobster will be the brand's second offering to go on sale in India after the VLF Tennis electric scooter, and promises to be a sporty offering packed with a host of features, including a built-in dashcam. VLF is represented in India by Motohaus, which has also brought Brixton Motorcycles to the country. VLF Mobster: Sporty Design The VLF Mobster will be a petrol-powered scooter and is targeted at young buyers. The sporty offering has been designed by famed Italian designer Alessandro Tartarini and appears to be heavily inspired by high-performance streetfighter motorcycles. The design language is sharp and angular, with plenty of cuts and creases on the bodywork. The front apron integrates the twin LED headlamps with DRLs, a tall flyscreen, and an exposed handlebar. The profile gets minimal bodywork with the exposed engine and a compact seat. Expect the model to arrive in two colours - red and grey.

He added, 'When you combine segment-leading technologies like liquid cooling, switchable ABS, and an integrated dash cam with aggressive Italian design, it becomes more than just a ride. It's about what it says about you. The Mobster speaks the Gen Z language – powerful, connected, and unapologetically stylish." VLF Mobster: Underpinnings The VLF Mobster will be underpinned by a high-tensile steel frame with a hydraulic suspension setup. Stopping power will come from disc brakes at either end. The scooter will get alloy wheels wrapped in premium tyres, the company said, without disclosing more details. The VLF Mobster will be initially available in Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Goa, Kolhapur, and Sangli, with more markets to be added soon VLF Mobster: Expected Features VLF India says the upcoming scooter will get a front dashcam, liquid cooling, and switchable ABS. It will also get a 5-inch TFT display for the instrument console with ride data, notifications, and controls. It will also come with mobile screen mirroring for navigation, call and music controls. The scooter will get a USB charging port as well. VLF Mobster: Expected Powertrain VLF has not disclosed the engine options yet, except confirming liquid cooling for the motor. Globally, the scooter is offered with either a 125 cc or 180 cc engine option. The 125 cc engine produces 11.8 bhp and 11.7 Nm of peak torque, while the 180 cc mill produces 17.7 bhp and 15.7 Nm of peak torque. We believe it's the latter that will make its way to India. VLF Mobster: Availability Motohaus India will initially commence sales of the VLF Mobster scooter across major cities, including Delhi, Pune, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Goa, Kolhapur, and Sangli. The company says it will expand the availability of the model to other cities in the coming weeks. The launch is expected to take place in the coming months, and the Mobster will be targeting a niche market. The model will compete against the new Aprilia SR 175, Yamaha Aerox 155, and the upcoming Hero Xoom 160 in the premium scooter segment. Check out Upcoming Bikes In India.
