Aprilia SXR 160 Starts Reaching Dealerships (Live Photos): Aprilia SXR 160 is one of the last and much-awaited products of 2020 in the two-wheeler segment, and it has been recently launched in India with an ex-showroom price tag of INR 1.26 lakhs.
Mechanically, the maxi-scooter draws its power from a 160cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, 3-valve, fuel-injected engine that develops 10.9 HP at 7100 rpm and 11.6 Nm of peak torque at 6000 rpm. The all-new SXR 160 gets a seven-litre fuel tank, which is more than the Aprilia SR series of scooters. In addition to this, the SXR 160 is also equipped with an all-digital instrument console.
The production of the SXR 160 was started by Piaggio India at its Baramati plant in Maharashtra a few weeks ago while the scooter has also started reaching dealerships across the country.

It features 12-inch 120/70 front and rear tyres.
The engine of SXR 160 is paired to a CVT automatic transmission. Its suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks upfront along with a mono-shock at the rear. For braking performance, SXR is equipped with a 220mm front disc brake and a 140mm rear drum brake. The scooter comes with single-channel ABS as a standard feature.
