Talking about the launch of the 2016 TVS Scooty Zest 110 Himalayan Highs special edition model, Mr. Aniruddha Haldar, VP Marketing, TVS Motor Company, said, “The Scooty has been an iconic brand for mobility in India. It’s only fitting that the first 110 cc scooter to reach the highest motorable road is a Scooty Zest 110, and it was ridden there by Anam Hashim, a 21 year old Scooty Zest owner.To commemorate this historic ride, we are happy to launch the Himalayan Highs special edition.” Anam started the ride on her Zest 110 in Jammu and rode thru Srinagar, Kargil, Zoji La Pass, Leh to reach the oxygen-depleted Khardung La. Her ride lasted 20 days. Here are some images from Anam’s ride to Khardung La on her Zest 110 –
Commenting on her memorable, record-breaking ride, Anam Hashim said, “Riding is my passion, I have always enjoyed trying new challenges. I was thrilled to ride TVS Scooty Zest 110 to Khardung La. The engine did not run out of breath, even beyond 10,000 feet and the ride quality was top-notch throughout the long hours of riding. Despite of all the dangerous turns, awful weather and vertigo inducing heights, TVS Scooty Zest 110 cc proved to be a super-reliable and dependable partner. Setting this record is truly an epic feeling.”
