Here’s how Suzuki’s latest sporty 125cc scooter performs in the real world
Suzuki launched its sporty offering in the 125cc scooter segment, the Suzuki Avenis, in November last year. The scooter rivals the TVS NTorq 125. Let’s see how it performs in real world conditions.

The Suzuki Avenis is powered by the same 124cc air-cooled engine as the Suzuki Burgman Street, dishing out 8.7PS and 10Nm. However, the light weight (106kg) of the scooter aids for a better acceleration even compared to its rival the NTorq. It offers brisk low-end grunt, and this coupled with the vibe-free engine makes it an effortless performer. The acceleration is great till 40kmph, post which the momentum slowly starts reducing.
Roll-on Acceleration

The Avenis performs well in terms of roll-on acceleration, however, it does not offer the performance on tap that a sporty scooter would flaunt. It is quick, but it can be quicker. Rather than going right off the bat, the Avenis takes a slow and gradual progression to its speed. However, the light weight really helps the roll-on acceleration performance, making it perform almost the same as its rival, the NTorq.

Fuel Efficiency

52.04kmpl |
56.21kmpl |
The Suzuki Avenis gets a 5.6-litre fuel tank, which is big for a scooter. The Avenis’ inherent lightness and the motor’s easy-going nature makes for a fuel efficient sporty scooter. It offers a respectable mileage on the highway, almost 1kmpl more than what the NTorq offers. However, the scooter offers more than 2kmpl less mileage than its sibling, the Burgman Street, and its rival, the NTorq, even after weighing less than the two scooters. That said, the overall efficiency figures in both city and on the highway are commendable for a 125cc scooter.
Braking

The Avenis comes equipped with a front disc and a rear drum brake setup, with combined braking system. On the braking front, the Avenis falls short as it takes more time than the NTorq to come to a standstill. However it is still quicker at stopping than most in the 125cc segment, but from a sporty scooter, you would expect better braking prowess, particularly a stronger bite and better feedback from the levers.
Even though it is on the more expensive side in its segment, the Suzuki Avenis makes for a balanced 125cc scooter between performance and conventional usability. It will be your daily commuter but with a feel of sportiness.
Suzuki Avenis User Reviews
I previously owned a Honda Activa. i just want a jump up from the vehicle. i tried dio but due to vast scooty available in roads. i just tried to find a unique scooter for my daily commute in the city. The comfort was good and can improve the seat quality a bit. Overall the experience from the service centre is nice. I mostly ride both in city and highway commuting daily in the city it is easy to maneuvere and in highway the performance is good. Ya definitely recommend it because of performance packed with great mileage. The suspension is on stiffer side when ride solo but with pillion it is nice to take a small bumps easily. Due to the stiffer suspension the stability is great.Read More

I chose this bike for it's amazing sporty looks. The power delivery of this scooter is amazing. The scooter has an well maintained body weight so that it does lift up from the road at high speeds & ofcourse Suzuki reliable engine. It was an amazing ride so far. Both The rear and front brakes are really good, appropriate for stopping the vehicle at max speeds. The throw of the headlight is really good for night riding. The digital meter is quite bright even in scorching sunlight. Yes I would recommend this scooter. It's totally worth buying this. Especially people who need an sporty look with and reliable engine and a brand like Suzuki. But two minor cons of this scooter is that Suzuki does not provide hazard button and pass button. Read More
I got the special edition with Titanium silver and black matte colour. The look is extremely awesome. Speaking about the performance that is also crazy, it's fully comfortable with a leather covered seat. Mileage is top notch. Pick up is low compared to burgman, but not a big issue. Easy handling. Worth it.Read More
