Suzuki’s Avenis 125 just got a timely upgrade to meet the latest OBD-2B emission standards. Priced at Rs. 91,400 (ex-showroom, Delhi), the standard variant now undercuts the higher-spec version by Rs. 1,800. While the engine’s cleaner, the rest of the scooter stays true to its previous form.
Design
It doesn’t take long to notice that the Avenis draws a lot of its styling from the TVS Ntorq 125. Suzuki seems to be targeting that exact audience, offering a similar sporty vibe. The front’s sharp and layered, with a large headlamp sitting dead center. Bold graphics stretch across the face and sides, accentuating the cuts and angles.
The side profile keeps that aggressive flow going, leading into a pointed tail section that’s both sporty and aerodynamic. Whether it’s standing still or zipping by, the Avenis holds onto that performance look.
Engine
The real change is under the skin. The updated engine now complies with OBD-2B norms, making it cleaner and more future-friendly. Despite that, Suzuki’s kept the rest of the engine untouched—it still runs on the same 124.3cc single-cylinder setup. Quick breakdown:
Specification | Detail |
---|---|
Engine Capacity | 124.3cc |
Power Output | 8.5bhp @ 6,750rpm |
Torque | 10Nm @ 5,500rpm |
Transmission | CVT |
Weight (Kerb) | 106kg |
With the CVT in place, the scooter stays smooth and easygoing—especially in city traffic. At just 106kg, it’s light and manageable for daily commutes.
Features
Suzuki’s kept the features solid for its segment. The Avenis gets a fully digital display with Bluetooth integration, giving riders call alerts, message notifications, and turn-by-turn navigation on the move.
Other handy touches include:
- Engine start/kill switch combo
- Silent starter tech
- Side-stand cut-off
- USB charging port
- 21.8-litre under-seat space
It rolls on 12-inch alloys, with telescopic forks at the front and a rear monoshock. For braking, there’s a disc up front and a drum at the rear—striking a decent balance between function and cost.
Rivalry
There’s no missing the point here—Suzuki built the Avenis to take on the TVS Ntorq 125. Both are aimed at the sporty 125cc crowd and bring similar power, features, and sharp styling. With updated emissions compliance and a slightly more affordable price tag, the Avenis might tempt a few buyers looking for something new.
In the end, though, the choice may come down to brand loyalty and the feel on the road—on paper, they’re neck and neck.
