Suzuki motorcycles India has launched its 150 variant of motorcycle in India. This is supposed to revive the sales numbers and the brand factor for Suzuki. The so far launched Heat and Seus has received only luke warm response.
The trump card that Suzuki is hoping that will click is the new 6-speed gear box for the first time in the segment. It should provide a better cruising experience and better fuel economy in the higher speeds. The 149 cc engine produces 13.8 bhp of power at 8500rpm.
The looks factor is the most disappointing fact. It’s a shameless copy of all the current bikes in production in India. The headlights look like they have been taken from Pulsar styled lights. The tank scoop has been literally taken from the Hunk. The tail lights are similar to that of the CBZ-Xtreme. And overall it’s a mix and match style of the various other 150 cc bikes available.
Priced at 59k ex-showroom, Suzuki is hoping that this will provide the much needed sales margin for its motorcycles division in India.
