The Access 125 is Suzuki Motorcycle India’s first star performer in the rapidly growing automatic scooter segment. In a way, the Access 125 paved the way for Suzuki’s first firm foothold in the highly competitive scooter market. A peppy engine, universally acceptable looks and decent fuel economy got it quite a fan following.
However, it’s been a few years since the Access 125 was first launched in 2007. A special edition Suzuki Access 125 with some cosmetic changes was also introduced in 2013. But Suzuki’s scooter sales were lacklustre over the past year, and sales of both 125cc scooters - the Suzuki Access and the Suzuki Swish - saw a decline. So now, in 2016, Suzuki has introduced a facelifted and upgraded version of the all-new Access 125. The 2016 Suzuki Access 125 will be sold alongwith the older model, at a slight premium. So, what’s new? Quite a few things, actually.
