Piaggio India has confirmed that it will be launching a new scooter in the Indian market and the offering will be called the Typhoon based on the Aprilia SR range. The Aprilia Typhoon could be the new entry-level model in the company’s line-up and could replace the Storm 125 currently on sale.

Piaggio is celebrating its 25th year in India and to mark the occasion, the company has made several key announcements right from product upgrades to new offerings. The Aprilia Typhoon will be a 125 cc offering and is expected to arrive as early as March this year.
