In the 125cc segment, where commuting is such a major use case, fuel efficiency is a very important factor when it comes to buying a scooter. With sporty character the Aprilia SR 125 has to face the issue of its fuel consumption vs more traditional 125cc scooters. Official fuel efficiency figures are provided by the manufacturer, but in reality, they differ. Riders report different mileage based on riding style, traffic conditions and maintenance. Others argue that the SR 125's performance oriented design means higher fuel consumption but they claim to achieve competitive efficiency with careful riding. The debate is also about whether a potential drop in fuel efficiency is a price worth paying for the scooter's performance and style. Also, we talk about how the SR 125 fares with regards to fuel efficiency, in varying usage patterns, such as short city commutes versus longer highway rides.
