2011 Mahindra Kine Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Positioned in Mahindra's scooter motorcycle lineup, the 2011 Mahindra Kine utilizes a 71.5 cc (4.4 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 3.8 HP (2.8 kW) at 5,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 5 Nm (3.7 lb-ft) at 4,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox. With a specific output of 53.1 HP per liter and a 1,000 rpm working window between peak torque (4,500 rpm) and peak power (5,500 rpm), the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.

On the scales, the Kine measures 82 kg (181 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 120 mm (4.7 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,225 mm (48.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4-liter (1.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
