Top 5 Scooter On Sale

Scooters, the go-to choice for convenient two-wheelers, have become indispensable commuting vehicles for the masses. The scooter market is extensive, catering to the diverse preferences of every type of rider. In our quest to simplify the options, we've curated a list of 5 scooters, each tailored to suit a specific rider profile. Whether you're a city commuter, a performance enthusiast, or someone seeking a blend of style and efficiency, there's a scooter designed just for you. Let's delve into the unique features that make each of these scooters a perfect match for different riders.

Honda Activa 6G

The Honda Activa, a basic workhorse, manages to do everything adequately. It packs enough punch for highway safety and boasts simplicity, making maintenance a breeze. The pocket-friendly nature of the Activa is evident from its frugality and low running costs. Currently in its 6th generation, it's priced at ₹ 77,710 (ex-showroom), with anticipation for a new model in 2024. However, no timeline is set for the launch of the 7th generation. Despite the pricing seeming a tad high for the scooter's basic features, the Activa 6G remains a popular choice due to its robust aftermarket support and undeniable reliability.

Yamaha Aerox 155

This one is an offering for someone who has to settle for a scooter instead of a bike. Priced at ₹ 1,47,563 (ex-showroom), it is among the most expensive scooters to ever go on sale in India but then again it justifies with its performance.. Fundamentally, it is the scooter version of the R15 V3 engine but it churns out 3 bhp less making peak power of 14.7 bhp and 13.9 Nm. The ergonomics are a bit different than a typical scooter, with no flat floorboard, a bulky feel, and a bigger wheel with chunky tyres. The highlight of the Aerox 155 is its engine performance and the wonderful handling courtesy the 14-inch wheels. The only problem is the low fuel tank capacity, fuel efficiency and the terribly stiff ride quality.

Suzuki Avenis

The Suzuki Avenis 125, available at ₹91,567 (ex-showroom) in three variants and is powered by a 124.3 cc engine generating 8.58 bhp and 10 Nm of torque. With front disc and rear drum brakes featuring a combined braking system, it ensures effective stopping power. Weighing 106 kg, it holds a 5.2litre fuel tank for practicality. The scooter's hardware includes telescopic forks at the front, a mono-shock at the back, and a 90/90 section 12-inch tyre in the front and a 90/100 section 10-inch tyre in the rear. The seat height is 780mm, which is great for shorter riders while the tall handlebar ensures that taller riders aren’t cramped for space. What made the Suzuki Access such a popular name in the Indian market is the great mix of performance, refinement, mileage and comfort.

Hero Xoom 100

Competitively priced at ₹75,503 (ex-showroom), the Hero Xoom combines attractive styling with a lightweight build. Its 110cc engine ensures good fuel efficiency, complementing the sporty theme defined by well-crafted cuts and contours for a visually appealing appearance. However, there's room for improvement, notably in addressing vibrations on the floorboard and managing compact dimensions. The scooter's nimble handling is exciting but the ergonomics are slightly cramped. Noteworthy features include a fully-digital instrument cluster and Bluetooth connectivity in the top-end ZX trim, offering turn-by-turn navigation and smartphone communication alerts.

TVS NTorq 125

Priced between ₹87,133 (Drum) and ₹1,08,488 (Top end) ex-showroom, the TVS NTorq offers a diverse range, though the drum brake version seems to serve more as a marketing ploy than a practical choice. Boasting a Bluetooth-enabled instrument cluster with GPS navigation, the scooter excels in performance—well, at least until you check the disappointing mileage. The plastic quality leaves room for improvement, but hey, at least the fit-and-finish is commendable, and you won't be bothered by too many rattling noises. The ergonomics is comfortable, though the compact footboard is a subtle reminder that this isn't meant for your luggage hauls. The highlight of the TVS Ntorq 125 is the balance of sportiness and comfort while the sporty styling is an added bonus. The XP edition introduces Street and Sport modes for those who demand a little extra thrill from their commute. Plus, enjoy the added utility of a boot light and USB charger.
