Price Comparison Of All 125cc Scooters In India: February 2023
Which scooter makes sense for what kind of rider? Let’s find out…
While the 110cc scooters on sale in India largely fall into the commuter mould, the situation changes when going a step up to the 125cc category. Here, there seems to be a clear demarcation between sporty and ‘sensible’ offerings. So here’s a reckoner on the variant-wise prices of the 125cc scooters currently on sale in India:

Hero makes its mark here with the most affordable scooter of them all: the drum-brake version of the Destini 125. In fact, it is the only 125cc scooter that is priced under Rs 75,000. However, it skimps out on a lot of features and hence, wouldn’t be our pick.
If you want a sensible option, you can’t go wrong with the Suzuki Access 125, Honda Activa 125 or the TVS Jupiter 125. Starting with the Jupiter, it is a bit costlier than the others, with the top variant coming in about Rs 5000 more than the Activa and Rs 2000 more than the Access. But for the extra moolah, you get loads of convenient features, such as the apron-mounted fuel filler and underfloor fuel tank, which translates to a 33-litre underseat storage, the largest among all Indian scooters. Moreover, with three-step preload adjustability for the rear suspension, you can choose between a comfortable commute and spirited corner-carving, on the fly.
And hence, we’d go for the Suzuki Access, foremost because it's the only one among the three with smartphone connectivity, and also because of the seemingly "dual natured" behaviour of its engine. Yes, it's refined behaviour makes it the ideal companion for the daily commute. However, it packs quite a sporty turn of performance when needed.
And speaking of performance, there are a plethora of options in this space. You get the Aprilia SR 125, Vespa 125 lineup (comprising the Vespa SXL125, Vespa VXL 125, and the Vespa ZX 125), the Suzuki Avenis and also the Burgman Street 125, which recently got updated with a larger 12-inch rear wheel. But the king of this class, and our pick, remains the TVS NTorq 125, especially in its Race XP trim. It is a sprightly performer and, when you want it, can also double up as an efficient commuter.
And finally, on the topic of efficiency, the Yamaha RayZR and Fascino both have a trick up their sleeve with the hybrid assist to their engine. This means they can provide stupendous mileage figures, further details of which you can find in our review.
Summing up, the 125cc scooter segment has something for everyone, from the office commuter, to the weekend corner carver. The only deciding factor, then, is the kind of riding you're looking forward to, and of course, your wallet.
User Reviews
Family-oriented scooter and comfortable for city rides with soft suspension and reliability of TVS. The Jupiter is itself a very big name in the scooter market for over a decade and provides the complete, balanced package. The scooter is smooth, and the space is more than enough, the only problem is that it doesn't give confidence during overtakes. The service centre experience is also not good, but overall the scooter is a complete package. Yes, 100% to people who are looking for a no-nonsense scooter with comfort and space on daily rides from point A to B with decent power dynamics and a lot of space, and the scooter provides all required features.Read More

If anyone is looking for a good mileage scooter, this would be the best option you may have in market. Also go with the street rally edition because it looks very good. Yamaha has a bit expensive parts but this scooter parts are quite cheap in price which makes this good option. Overall experience with this bike is good.Read More

The most comfortable racing scooter ever been made feels like your riding sports bike and vibe is so flaunting that it makes you the show stealer and show stopper, all in all my experience in buying this is way too beyond expectations and the sound produced from this beast is on next level. No other scooters of this generations can beat out of it as it can.Read More
