Aprilia is revving up for a stronger presence in the Indian scooter segment with the upcoming launch of the SR 175. The new scooter has already been spotted at dealerships, indicating that the official launch is just around the corner—most likely within July. Positioned as a performance-focused scooter, the SR 175 is expected to replace the SR 160 and bring fresh energy to Aprilia’s Indian lineup.


A More Powerful Heart

The biggest upgrade in the SR 175 is its engine. It’s expected to come with a 174.7cc, 3-valve, single-cylinder engine that produces 12.92 hp at 7,200 rpm and 14.14 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm. Compared to the SR 160’s 11.27 hp and 13.44 Nm, this means more punch on city streets and better acceleration for highway rides. This makes the SR 175 one of the most powerful scooters in its segment.


Design That Stands Out

In terms of styling, the SR 175 carries forward Aprilia’s signature sporty look. While it shares its overall design language with the SR 160, it gets a fresh coat of character thanks to new graphics and colors inspired by Aprilia’s bigger bikes - the RS 457 and Tuono 457. Expect sharp lines, bold accents, and a stance that screams performance.



Hardware: Familiar Yet Functional

Though official details are still under wraps, the SR 175 is expected to share much of its hardware with the SR 160. This includes the suspension setup, tyre sizes, and chassis frame. This approach ensures a tried-and-tested base with an upgraded engine and feature list.


Tech-Packed Features

One of the standout features on the SR 175 is its new TFT instrument cluster. If it’s the same unit used on the RS 457 and Tuono 457, riders can expect a fully digital display with vibrant graphics, Bluetooth connectivity, and smartphone integration via Aprilia’s official app. This enables turn-by-turn navigation, call alerts, and other smart features right on the scooter’s dashboard.



Launch Timeline and Price

With units already reaching dealerships, Aprilia is expected to launch the SR 175 sometime in July 2025. As per industry reports, the expected starting price will be around ₹1.31 lakh (ex-showroom). This positions it at the premium end of the scooter market but justifies the tag with its performance and feature set.

The Aprilia SR 175 aims to raise the bar for sporty scooters in India. With its powerful engine, race-inspired design, and modern features, it’s not just an upgrade over the SR 160-it’s a bold step forward. For those looking for performance with style and tech, this could be the scooter to watch out for in 2025.
