The scooter, launched in September 2025 at an introductory price of ₹1.30 lakh (ex-showroom), recorded over 2,500 bookings in its first month, with 1,000 unit bookings within the first 48 hours. VLF initially earmarked 2,500 units for the introductory price but later added another 500 units in October, taking the total early-bird allocation to 3,000. Prices will increase to ₹1.38 lakh once this batch is exhausted.

The Mobster 135 arrives as a CKD unit and is assembled locally in Kolhapur. Styled by Italian designer Alessandro Tartarini, the scooter blends elements of an ADV and a streetfighter, featuring sharp bodywork, twin projector headlamps and an all-LED lighting setup.

Feature highlights include a 5.0-inch TFT display with Bluetooth, keyless ignition, auto start/stop, illuminated switchgear and switchable traction control. VLF also offers an optional dashcam.

The scooter weighs 122 kg and has a 1,341 mm wheelbase, 797 mm seat height and 155 mm ground clearance.

Power comes from a 125 cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine developing 12.1 bhp and 11.7 Nm, with a claimed top speed of 105 kmph.

It uses telescopic front forks and gas-charged twin rear shocks, while braking is handled by 230 mm front and 220 mm rear disc brakes. The Mobster 135 stands out as the only 125 cc scooter in India to offer switchable dual-channel ABS.

The scooter rides on 12-inch alloy wheels with dual-purpose tyres (120/70 front, 130/70 rear). VLF claims 46 kmpl fuel efficiency, and the scooter features an 8-litre fuel tank.
