In the current scenario where fuel prices are through the roof, scooters are gradually becoming people's first choice. Right from their affordable pricing to the high mileage, scooters ace the game in a wide array of aspects. Moreover, a scooter is far easier for daily use in contrast to motorcycles, especially when it comes to offering complete comfort to both – the rider and the pillion rider! Then again, most scooters come with a softer suspension setup, making them ideal for city roads. Hence, it shouldn't come as a surprise, that a vast majority of scooters can earn you a decent price when you sell them in the second-hand two-wheeler market in India! But which are the scooters that can help you avail the best resale value? Well, that's precisely what you're about to find out!
