Aprilia SR 125 — Overview
The Aprilia SR 125 is the most distinctively styled 125cc scooter in India - a Race-inspired, full-fairing sporty scooter built at Piaggio's Pune facility, carrying Aprilia's Italian motorsport identity into a segment dominated by practical Japanese and Indian commuters. Priced from Rs 1,15,900 ex-showroom Delhi, it competes with the TVS NTorq 125, Honda Activa 125, and Suzuki Access 125 on specification, and differentiates itself through brand identity, aggressive aesthetics, and a 102 kg kerb weight that keeps city riding nimble. It is the right scooter for a buyer who wants something that stands apart visually and values the Aprilia name - with a clear-eyed understanding that the 125cc engine performs similarly to every other scooter in its class.
Aprilia SR 125 Latest Updates
View allPiaggio India has confirmed the Aprilia SR 125 pricing for 2026 at Rs 1,15,900 (SR 125) and Rs 1,29,900 (SR 125 Race) ex-showroom Delhi - a marginal revision since the scooter's 2021 India launch. No mechanical changes, new variants, or feature additions have been announced for the Indian market. The 124.45cc FI engine, CBS braking on both variants, and front disc brake on the Race variant remain unchanged. Both variants continue as made-in-India products from Piaggio's Pune manufacturing facility.
What We Like
- Aprilia's Italian motorsport brand identity at Rs 1,15,900 - unique in the 125cc scooter segment
- Race-inspired bodywork: the most distinctively styled 125cc scooter in India by a wide margin
- 102 kg - one of the lightest premium 125cc scooters, giving nimble city handling
- Front disc brake with CBS standard on SR 125 Race variant
- Full digital instrument cluster - more modern display than semi-analogue rivals
- Made in India at Piaggio Pune - competitive pricing for an Italian-branded product
What Could Be Better
- 43 kmpl ARAI - significantly lower than Honda Activa 125 (63 kmpl) and Yamaha Fascino 125 (66 kmpl); fuel costs are higher for equivalent daily use
- 5.5-litre tank gives approximately 210-230 km range - requires more frequent fill-ups than rivals with larger tanks
- Piaggio India service network thin outside major cities - the biggest practical ownership risk
- Performance does not match the sporty visual promise - 9.35 PS is similar to all 125cc rivals; it looks faster than it is
- Resale value trails Honda Activa 125 significantly in the used market
- No Bluetooth connectivity in any variant - the TVS NTorq 125 with SmartXonnect has this advantage
Editor's Verdict
Should You Buy the Aprilia SR 125?
The Aprilia SR 125 is the choice for a buyer who wants their 125cc scooter to make a visual statement and values the Italian brand identity that no Japanese or Indian rival can offer at this price. The riding experience is 125cc scooter standard - the Race branding is about aesthetics, not performance. The Honda Activa 125 is significantly more fuel-efficient, the TVS NTorq 125 has Bluetooth and more performance personality, and both have vastly better service coverage. Buy the SR 125 with clear eyes: it is the most fashionable choice, not the most practical one.
