ZONTES 350 Series Scooter Launched From RM23,800

Zontes Distribution Sdn Bhd, part of Eurotech Wheel Distribution Sdn Bhd, the official importer and distributor of Zontes motorcycles in Malaysia, is shaking up the scooter market in Malaysia with the launch of the new Zontes 350 Series scooter.

Meanwhile, if you currently ride a Yamaha X-Max which is already 5 years old and you might be thinking of a new upgrade, then take a look at the Zontes 350 scooter pictures below.

Also, if you happen to be waiting in line to take delivery of your Honda ADV 160 scooter which currently has a long waiting list, you could at least test ride this latest Zontes scooter which can be delivered immediately to you.

Interestingly, this latest 50 Series scooter is packed with the latest technology and a host of premium features normally found on higher capacity motorcycles and yet comes with very attractive and affordable price tags.

In Malaysia, the Zontes 350 Series scooter is available in two variants – the 350D and 350E.  Both are powered by the same 349cc liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, single cylinder engine with 36hp and 38Nm of torque matched to an automatic CVT gearbox.

The scooters come with a two-year or 20,000km general warranty and up to three-year or 30,000km warranty for engine parts, terms and conditions apply.

Designed for urban mobility, the slimmer and lighter 350D weighs in at 190kg and has one of the highest power to weight ratios in its class. Equipped with a 12-litre fuel tank with a projected range of 400km in ECO mode, this variant’s nimble handling, comfortable suspension, good pick-up and fuel economy make it perfect for daily commutes in the city.

Available in either silver or black, the 350D is a smart choice for intermediate riders between 31 to 40 years old, especially those who are looking for a second bike.

The 350E, with a longer 1,565mm wheelbase (compared to the 350D’s 1,405mm), a larger 16-litre fuel tank (full tank range of 457km) and heavier at 203kg, is best suited for long distance touring and sells for RM25,800.

Its seat storage space of 50 litres can accommodate two full-face helmets while two large water-resistant storage areas at the front can easily fit four 500ml water bottles plus a bit more.

The 350E’s integrated aluminium alloy steering handles can be adjusted in two gears (front and rear), allowing the rider to choose a more comfortable handle position while the heated handle grips keep the hands and fingers warm during chilly weather.

The 350E is targeted at the 31- to 40-year-old age group of either intermediate or big bike riders, who can choose either a white or black paint job.

Functional and convenience features found in both the 350D and 350E variants include 3.0 keyless control system for easy starting, a full-colour 6.7” TFT screen with mobile phone mirroring capability, an electronically adjustable windshield and 18W dual fast charging port with Type A and C interfaces.

Common safety features found in both variants include front and rear disc brakes with J Juan radial type four-piston callipers, dual-channel ABS, Traction Control System (TCS), Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) and ultra-bright OSRAM LED lights all-round.

With the introduction of the new 350 Series scooter, Zontes now has a strong portfolio of nine (9) motorcycle models in Malaysia to cater to different needs of Malaysian bikers.
