Scooter Details And Price Difference
A price difference of Rs 20,000 separates the two variants. The SXR GT 125 features a combined braking system alongside a 5-inch LCD instrument cluster. The higher-priced SXR GT 175 upgrades to single-channel ABS and a 5-inch TFT instrument display.
Engine Specifications
The SXR GT 175 runs on a 174.7cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that delivers 9.76 kW at 7,200 rpm and 14.14 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. The smaller SXR GT 125 uses a 124.45cc engine producing 7.8 kW at 7,400 rpm and 10.4 Nm of torque at 6,200 rpm. Both motors feature electronic fuel injection, a single overhead camshaft, and three valves per cylinder.
Design And Equipment
Both scooters feature updated graphics while keeping the familiar maxi-scooter look with a broad front fairing, tall windscreen, and three-part LED headlamp layout. A major mechanical change is the shift to 14-inch wheels, replacing the older 12-inch setup to improve stability. Suspension duties are handled by telescopic front forks and adjustable rear hydraulic shock absorbers, paired with 220 mm front disc brakes and 140 mm rear drum brakes.
Context
These new models comply with strict BSVI OBD II Stage B standards and support E20 fuel, aligning with current Indian environmental regulations. Aprilia states that the updated engines are built to improve acceleration and daily riding comfort.
