The Aprilia SXR 160 was launched in India with the promise of a premium Italian brand joining the maxi scooter segment. Like most newly launched vehicles, especially by brands that aren’t very popular in the Indian market, there were reliability concerns and reports about the same. These included everything from electrical issues to build quality issues. It's been a few years since the SXR 160 was launched, and it's time to take a peek at how the SXR 160 has held up in the long term reliability department. Have the initial teething problems been addressed by Aprilia? Have owners been able to achieve consistent performance over long periods of time, or do the same problems continue to plague the scooter? Moreover, the availability of spare parts and the quality of after sales service, which were previously the main issues of concern, are also important to measure the overall reliability and ownership of the scooter.
