The Kinetic DX EV is nostalgia done right!

NEW WINE, OLD BOTTLE!

Back when the parking lots of suburban India were populated with various geared scooters of Italian origin, some of which didn't have turn signals from the factory and all of which had kick starters, the Kinetic Honda DX was a revelation, a salvation that many didn't know they needed.

imageIt had integrated turn signals, an electric start, and an automatic transmission in the form of a CVT. A result of a collaboration between Kinetic and Honda, these scooters were based on the 100cc version of the Honda NH series of two-stroke scooters (also made by Peugeot as the SC series).
