  • The Aprilia SR 150 has been renamed to the SR 160.
  • All scooters now feature fuel-injection as standard.

Piaggio India has launched BS6-compliant versions of its Vespa and Aprilia range of scooters. The BS6 Vespa range is now priced from Rs 91,492 (Vespa Urban Club), which translates to a hike of around Rs 18,000. On the other hand, the Aprilia lineup now starts from Rs 85,431 for the Aprilia Storm 125 - a premium of Rs 18,697. The reason for the price hike could be due to the addition of fuel injection for cleaner emissions.

While Piaggio has only officially revealed the prices of two scooters, our dealer sources had already revealed the price list for the entire range. Head here to know the prices of your favourite models now. Interestingly, the Aprilia SR 150 has been renamed to SR 160, and at 11PS, it makes 0.94PS more than the BS4 version. Further details about the specifications of all the scooters will be revealed soon.

Also, as a part of the introductory launch offer, customers will get free accessories such as a windscreen and perimeter-type crash guards worth up to Rs 4,200 with 150cc Vespas and Aprilia SR 160 scooters. Here’s the press release for more details:
