The BS-VI scooter range has not changed much in terms of power output as well. The SR160 scooter range is now powered by a 160 cc single-cylinder, 3-valve engine. It produces 10.8bhp at 7,600rpm and peak torque of 11.6Nm at 6,000rpm. While the SR125 scooters are powered by an updated 125cc single-cylinder motor which makes 9.5bhp at 7,250rpm and peak torque of 9.9Nm at 6,250rpm.

The Aprilia SR160 range of scooters is equipped with telescopic forks at the front, adjustable hydraulic shock absorber at the rear, and 14-inch alloy wheels. Braking duties on the SR160 are handled by 220mm disc at the front and 140mm drum unit at the rear. A single-channel ABS is offered as standard.

Aprilia has equipped their entry-level SR125 scooters with similar mechanicals. The scooters do share many components from its elder sibling including the suspension and the brake setup. However, the SR125 and the Storm 125 misses out the single-channel ABS offered on the SR160 range. Instead, the company has equipped the scooter with Combi Brake System (CBS) for added safety.

All the BS6 scooters still feature non-led headlight and do not offer any mobile connectivity as well. Most scooters in the 125cc and 150cc segment are offering these features as standard.

In other news, the company is also gearing up to launch the Aprilia SXR160 Maxi-Scooter. The upcoming scooter was first showcased at the 2020 AutoExpo. The company also announced that the bookings for the scooter will start around August followed by the launch in December - here are all the details.

Thoughts About The Aprilia SR160 & SR125 BS6 Scooter Range Price

Aprilia scooters apart from becoming BS6 complaint, do not feature any changes as compared to the previous models. With more brands coming into the 125cc and 150cc segment with new products, the hefty price increase will be hard to justify in India, which is important in a price-sensitive market like ours.
