The Mahindra Pantero is the first of the two commuter bikes to hit the market. The second is the Centuro which is waiting to be launched. Mahindra says that the Pantero addresses customers who are looking for fuel economy and affordability while the Centuro targets people who want a stylish and equipment-rich commuter.
Both the bikes are powered by a homegrown 107cc four stroke engine which generates 8.5 bhp and 8.5 Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a 4-speed gearbox.
