The Aprilia SXR 160 is making a whole lot of promises before its official launch and while it was first showcased at Auto Expo 2020 back in February, it is likely to garner a whole lot of attention once again once officially launched. This is primarily because of its stylish looks which take more than just a cue from Aprilia's global design language. With wrap-around LED Headlights, LED taillights, full digital cluster, mobile connectivity option, longer, bigger, and comfortable seating, adjustable rear suspension, disc brake with ABS, and signature Aprilia graphics, the premium scooter is looking at targeting those interested in a more upmarket experience in this category.

"It is a great feeling as our premium scooter, the Aprilia SXR 160, has started rolling out of the production lines. 2020 was a year filled with challenges, but we were determined to fulfil our promise of delivering the much-anticipated scooter at the earliest," said Diego Graffi, Chairman and Managing Director, Piaggio India.
