The Sunny was a successful scooterette at that time. Bajaj stopped producing it in 2000. The Sunny Zip had a 60 cc engine and had a marginal power increase from its former model. The Sunny was a reliable two wheeler, and its two stroke engine offered a mileage of nearly 50 km/litre. Riding comfort was good and it was quite handsome in appearance. It had a single gear (automatically engaging) system, unlike the variomatic transmission used in the Kinetic moped or scooters then, or the TVS Scootys now. Overall it was considered a very fine scooterette even for an aged person.
