      2025 Suzuki Avenis Gets More Affordable With Standard Edition Launch

      by

      2025 Suzuki Avenis Standard Edition – Glossy Sparkle Black / Pearl Mira RedSuzuki used to only operate in conventional family scooters segment with Access and maxi-styled scooters segment with Burgman Street. This was changed with the launch of Avenis 125, a sporty scooter to take on TVS Ntorq 125. With time, Suzuki kept on updating Avenis 125 to keep it relevant in the cutthroat market.
      With 2025 Suzuki Avenis, the company launched only the Standard (Ride Connect) variant along with Special Edition. This model came with an updated engine compliant with BS6 P2 OBD2B emission standards. Avenis 125 Standard Edition, however, is launched now with an updated BS6 P2 OBD2B engine. Let’s take a closer look.
      2025 Avenis Standard Edition – Glossy Sparkle Black / Pearl Glacier White
      2025 Suzuki Avenis Standard Edition
      Towards the end of March 2025, Suzuki Motorcycle India launched the new and updated 2025 Avenis 125. The starting price of this updated scooter was Rs 93,200 (Ex-sh) and Rs 94,000 (Ex-sh) for Special Edition. It has to be noted that both these variants came equipped with Ride Connect system.
      Standard Edition, on the other hand, was not launched with MY25 update, which looked like it was left out for good. That’s changed now as the company just launched Standard Edition of 2025 Suzuki Avenis 125 with the updated BS6 P2 OBD2B emission standard compliant engine, same as variants with Ride Connect system.
      2025 Avenis Standard Edition – Champion Yellow No 2 / Glossy Sparkle Black
      Where pricing is concerned, 2025 Suzuki Avenis 125 Standard Edition costs Rs 91,400 (Ex-sh) and is now the most affordable variant of Avenis 125. In effect, it costs Rs 1,800 less than Ride Connect variant and the main omission is, well, Ride Connect system that comes equipped with Bluetooth, app support and turn-by-turn navigation.
      Four colour options
      2025 Suzuki Avenis 125 Standard is offered with four colour options – Glossy Sparkle Black / Pearl Mira Red, Champion Yellow No 2 / Glossy Sparkle Black, Glossy Sparkle Black / Pearl Glacier White and Glossy Sparkle Black. These colours are same as Avenis 125 with Ride Connect system.

      Yamaha Electric Scooter For India Launch This Year – New Details

      by

      Yamaha Electric scooters Showcased in India – Image for reference
      While the company is not currently active in the Indian electric scooter market, Yamaha has big plans. The Japanese brand is reportedly developing a new electric scooter codenamed RY01, which will be based on River Indie. This upcoming electric scooter will be a global product and will be launched by the end of this year. Let’s see what’s what.
      Yamaha New Electric Scooter
      The Indian electric scooter market has had a major tilt in the scale as the segment leader Ola Electric has had a significant downfall. TVS Motor and Bajaj Auto have benefited from these developments and the time seems to be ripe for Japanese brands to enter this segment. Honda with Activa e and QC1 and Suzuki with e-Access. What is Yamaha doing? One might wonder.
      Yamaha Electric Scooters Showcased For India in 2022
      As per a recent report, Yamaha has commenced development of its first electric scooter for India. This is a joint operation with Indian electric mobility startup River. Internally, Yamaha’s first electric scooter is codenamed RY01, which could mean River Yamaha 01. This move marks the company’s entry into India’s vastly lucrative electric scooter segment.
      Launch is slated to happen by the end of 2025 and production will reportedly begin around July 2025 and September 2025. Yamaha is said to have complete project ownership, while River is entrusted with innovation and execution. This means River will handle engineering, R&D, powertrain, battery and manufacturing for Yamaha.
      River Indie
      Alongside this River-derived electric scooter, Yamaha is also said to be working on a new global electric 2W platform that will break covers in 2026 or 2027. River’s plant in Bengaluru is said to be compatible with Yamaha’s quality and production standards. This joint project is likely to prove beneficial for Yamaha in terms of localisation, cost efficiency, engineering and R&D.
      What to expect?
      This development is a part of the USD 40 million investment Yamaha made in River as part of its Series B fundraising in 2024. As per the report, Yamaha RY01 will be based on the same platform as River Indie and will be powered by the same (or slightly tweaked) powertrain components including battery and motor.
      River Indie
      Design is where Yamaha’s electric scooter will have a distinct identity, falling in line with its reputation for sporty and premium offerings. For context, River Indie offers a 4 kWh battery pack that is rated for 161 km of range from a single charge (IDC certified). This battery powers a 6.7 kW (around 9 bhp) PMSM electric motor.

      2025 Suzuki Access Gets TFT Screen – Launch Price Rs 1.02 L

      by

      2025 Suzuki Access Ride Connect TFT EditionSMIPL (Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt Ltd) increased its presence in India’s scooter market with the launch of 2025 Access. Apart from the new name (dropped 125 from its name), 2025 Access is also a redesigned product with new features and elements to better rival the Honda Activa 125.
      Earlier this year (January 2025), Honda launched 2025 Activa which now gets a fully digital TFT instrument cluster. This emerged as an aspiring feature for buyers and boosted appeal significantly. Now, Suzuki is at it too, offering a new TFT instrument cluster with the newly launched 2025 Access. Let’s take a closer look.
      2025 Suzuki Access Ride Connect TFT Edition
      2025 Suzuki Access Gets TFT Screen
      For the first time, a mass-market made-in-India Suzuki 2W vehicle (scooter or motorcycle) has been offered with a TFT instrument cluster. This particular screen is a 4.2-inch unit and this cluster retains all of its Bluetooth and connectivity features from the preceding LCD panel, only presented more stylishly with faster refresh rates and higher contrast.
      Where pricing is concerned, 2025 Suzuki Access Ride Connect Edition costs Rs 1,01,900 (Ex-sh). This is around Rs 7,000 more than Ride Connect Edition with an LCD cluster. Along with the new cluster, Suzuki has also introduced a new colour with 2025 Access Ride Connect TFT Edition.
      2025 Suzuki Access Ride Connect TFT Edition
      This new colour is called Pearl Mat Aqua Silver and it is sort of like a Teal shade with a contrasting Beige shade for floorboard and other panels behind the apron. Seat cover gets a Brown shade. The other four colours – Metallic Mat Black No. 2, Metallic Mat Stellar Blue, Pearl Grace White and Solid Ice Green continue to be on offer too.
      With the inclusion of this new 4.2-inch TFT instrument screen, 2025 Suzuki Access has upped its premium quotient and the only thing it now misses, is a keyless ignition system. It continues to be powered by the smooth and reliable 125cc engine and gets the same mechanicals and components as before.
      2025 Suzuki Access Ride Connect TFT Edition
      Statement from Suzuki
      Commenting on this latest offering, Mr. Deepak Mutreja, Vice President – Sales & Marketing, Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd. said, “The Suzuki Access has long been a trusted companion for urban riders and with its latest upgrade, we are adding a new layer of modern functionality and flair. The Coloured TFT Digital display and the elegant new colour elevate the everyday riding experience while staying true to the scooter’s strength of reliability, comfort and efficiency.” More

      2025 Honda XL750 Transalp Debuts – New Features, Improvements

      by

      2025 Honda XL750 TransalpIt is possible that 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp could be introduced in India later this year or in early 2026
      Ahead of its 29th May launch in Japan, Honda has revealed the details of 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp. The bike gets multiple updates, although the engine remains similar to its predecessor. In India, Honda XL750 Transalp competes with the likes of Triumph Tiger 900, BMW F 850 GS and Suzuki V-Strom 800DE. Let’s check out all the updates introduced with the 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp.
      2025 Honda XL750 Transalp – What’s new?
      At the front, the 2025 XL750 Transalp gets dual projector headlamps for improved illumination. The sharper lighting setup also enhances the bike’s visual appeal. At the front, the windscreen has been updated as well. While the basic shape of the windscreen seems familiar, the material used is Durabio, an environmentally friendly bio-engineered plastic.
      2025 XL750 Transalp
      Made from isosorbide derived from renewable plants, Durabio is known for its scratch-resistant properties and superior toughness. Honda has also added an intake duct in the centre, which helps channel air away from the rider. This will be useful in reducing rider fatigue and discomfort during long-distance touring at high speeds.
      Ride comfort has been further enhanced with changes to the front and rear suspension. Users can expect a better overall experience across both paved roads and rough surfaces. With these multiple changes, the 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp now weighs 210 kg. That’s 2 kg heavier than the current model. Dimensionally, the new model is largely the same as the existing version. The only exception is a 5mm reduction in overall height. This is likely due to the updated windscreen.
      2025 XL750 Transalp
      Seat height of 850 mm is the same as earlier. The bike has 21-inch front and 18-inch rear wheels, wrapped in 90/90 front and 150/70 rear tyres. Braking setup comprises double discs at front and a single disk at the rear. Fuel tank capacity is 16 litres. With mileage at 23.1km/L (As per WMTC standards), overall range on a full tank works out at around 370 km.
      2025 XL750 Transalp – New Colour
      New colour
      For the Japanese market, Honda has introduced a new Pearl Deep Mud Gray colour option with the 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp. The earlier colour options of Ross White and Graphite Black have been carried over. In India, the existing Honda XL750 Transalp is available in colour options of Ross White and Matte Ballistic Black Metallic.
      Performance
      2025 Honda XL750 Transalp retains the 755cc, liquid-cooled, SOHC (Unicam) 4-valve parallel 2-cylinder engine that generates 91 PS and 75 Nm of torque. It is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Honda has introduced some tweaks to the fuel injection settings to enhance throttle response. Users can expect a more refined riding experience, especially at low-to-mid RPMs. It is possible that the engine’s electronic management system could also have undergone some adjustments to improve overall performance.
      2025 XL750 Transalp
      Pricing
      In Japan, the 2025 Honda XL750 Transalp is available at 1.32 million yen (Rs 7.74 lakh). That’s an increase of around 55,000 yen (Rs 32,000) over the outgoing model. Due to import duties, the price of XL750 Transalp is higher in India at Rs 10.99 lakh. Earlier this year in March, Honda had announced a cash discount of Rs 80,000 on the XL750 Transalp. The new model, when launched, could be priced at around Rs 11.5 lakh to Rs 12 lakh. More

      2025 TVS iQube S and ST Launched – Bigger Battery, More Range

      by

      2025 TVS iQube S and STTVS Motor has been updating its iQube electric scooter lineup periodically to keep them relevant and boost sales at the same time. In that regard, we got to see the launch of 2025 TVS iQube S and ST variants in India with an updated powertrain that is aimed to offer more range for buyers. Let’s take a look at all the updates.
      2025 TVS iQube S and ST
      Ever since it was launched, TVS iQube has emerged as one of the best-selling electric scooters in India. Now that Ola Electric sales are crumbling down, TVS iQube and Bajaj Chetak have gained quite a bit of the market share. There are multiple trim levels of iQube and only the S and ST trims have been updated to MY25 version. Where design changes are concerned, we can see dual-tone seats, beige inner panels and a pillion backrest.
      Starting with 2025 iQube S, the company has priced it at Rs 1.17 lakh (Effective Price, Delhi). Previously, it used to come equipped with a 3.3 kWh battery pack that was rated to deliver around 100 km of range on a single charge in the real world. The new 2025 iQube S gets a slightly larger 3.5 kWh battery pack and TVS is advertising it with an IDC range of 145 km on a single charge.
      It continues to get a 7-inch TFT cluster with HMI integration and other features like 32L underseat storage, USB charging port, external charging socket, 118+ connected features, front disc brake, 78 km/h top speed, 0-40 km/h sprint in 4.2s, reverse mode, 12-inch tyres at both ends, LED lighting telematics, turn-by-turn navigation and more.
      2025 TVS iQube ST
      2025 iQube ST
      The same 3.3 kWh to 3.5 kWh battery pack upgrade can also be seen with a smaller battery variant of the top-spec 2025 TVS iQube ST trim. However, 2025 iQube ST gets an upgrade to its larger battery variant where the 5.1 kWh battery pack has been replaced with a 5.3 kWh pack with a claimed IDC range of 212 km on a single charge. 2025 iQube ST 3.5 kWh costs Rs 1.28 lakh (Effective price) and 5.3 kWh variant costs 1.59 lakh (Effective price).
      Being the top-spec iQube ST trim, it gets a host of features and technology on top of S trim. These include a 7-inch TFT instrument cluster that is a touchscreen, music control, voice assist with Alexa skillset and more. At 132 kg, it is slightly heavier than S trim and hence there is a slight drop in performance as it has a 0-40 km/h sprint of 4.5s.
      In the Indian market, 2025 TVS iQube S and ST rival the likes of Ola S1 Pro and Pro+, Ather Rizta, Bajaj Chetak and Hero Vida V2 Plus and V2 Pro, among others. With the larger batteries and more IDC-claimed range, the 2025 TVS iQube S and iQube ST are likely to attract more buyers than they did before.

      While Toyota sells many hybrid cars in the USA, the only BEV option currently available is the bZ4X compact crossover SUV. To strengthen its BEV portfolio, Toyota has added the latest-gen C-HR that uses an all-electric powertrain. It is expected to be available at Toyota dealerships in the USA in 2026. Let’s check out the key features of the 2026 Toyota C-HR.
      2026 Toyota C-HR EV Debuts – Performance, range

      2026 Toyota C-HR EV Debuts
      With a fast charger, the C-HR’s battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in just around 30 minutes. For user’s convenience, C-HR also supports charging from Level One and Level Two AC power sources. To suit local climate conditions, 2026 Toyota C-HR is also equipped with a battery pre-conditioning system. It essentially primes the battery for DC fast charging, as is necessary in colder climates. The battery pre-conditioning system can work in both manual and automatic mode.
      2026 Toyota C-HR EV Debuts
      Variants, features
      2026 Toyota C-HR will be available in SE and XSE grades in the US. The SE trim has features such as 18-inch wheels with black alloy inserts, a powered tailgate and low-profile roof rails.

All trims of Toyota C-HR are equipped with JBL Premium Audio system with 9 speakers. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is also common for all variants, offering a wide range of ADAS features.
      2026 Toyota C-HR EV Debuts
      In Toyota’s USA lineup, the 2026 C-HR BEV is expected to be positioned above the bZ4X. Prices could start at around $42,000 (~ Rs 36 lakh). In the US, 2026 C-HR BEV will take on rivals such as Hyundai Kona Electric, Volkswagen ID.4 and Chevrolet Equinox EV. The target audience will primarily be buyers who are looking for a sporty, performance-oriented compact EV, offering AWD and a practical range. More

      KTM Price Hike May 2025 Up To Rs 12k – RC 200, RC 390, 250 Duke, 390 Duke

      by

      KTM RC Supersport MotorcycleRecent price hike for KTM bikes is likely due to increased production costs; no new features added
      KTM has announced an upward price revision for select bikes in the range of Rs 1,000 to Rs 12,000. The move aligns with industry trends, where rising operational costs and commodity prices have prompted other international brands such as Ducati and BMW Motorrad to increase prices in 2025. Let’s check out the new prices of KTM bikes.
      KTM 390 Duke – Rs 1,000 price hike
      A nominal price hike of Rs 1,000 is applicable on KTM 390 Duke. The new price is Rs 2.96 lakh, as compared to Rs 2.95 lakh earlier. Earlier this year, KTM had slashed prices of 390 Duke by Rs 18,000. This effectively brought down the price of 390 Duke from Rs 3.13 lakh to Rs 2.95 lakh (all prices Ex-sh).
      KTM 390 Duke
      It made the bike more accessible to enthusiasts and helped avoid the psychological barrier associated with the Rs 3 lakh plus price tag. KTM had retained this reduced pricing for 390 Duke even after adding cruise control as standard in March. With cruise control, a first-in-segment feature, 390 Duke has improved capabilities for long-distance rides.
      Users can set a specific cruising speed, which does away with the need for continuous throttle inputs. This reduces hand fatigue and enhances overall ride experience. Along with the cruise control update, KTM had also introduced a new Ebony Black Colour option with the bike in March. 390 Duke is currently available with colour options of Atlantic Blue and Electronic Orange as well.
      KTM RC 390
      KTM 250 Duke, RC 390 – Rs 5,000 price hike
      Both KTM 250 Duke and RC 390 have become costlier by Rs 5,000. KTM 250 Duke new price is Rs 2.30 lakh, as compared to Rs 2.25 lakh earlier. KTM RC 390 new price is Rs 3.23 lakh, as compared to Rs 3.18 lakh earlier. KTM 250 Duke takes on rivals such as Hero Xtreme 250R, Suzuki Gixxer 250 and Bajaj Pulsar N250 (all prices Ex-sh).
      Equipped with a 249.07 cc, liquid-cooled engine, KTM 250 Duke generates 31 PS and 25 Nm of torque. Key features include LED lighting, 43 mm WP APEX USD forks, off-centre WP APEX Emulsion rear shock absorber, 320 mm / 240 mm disc brakes and dual-channel ABS. The bike has a 5-inch LCD instrument display that supports incoming calls, music access and turn-by-turn navigation.
      New KTM Duke 250 Ceramic White
      KTM RC 390 utilizes a 373 cc, liquid-cooled engine that generates 43.5 PS and 37 Nm of torque. The bike takes on rivals such as Yamaha R3 and TVS Apache RR310. KTM is expected to introduce the new RC 390 in India in 2025. Test mule sightings of the new model have been reported in Europe. There are major updates across both styling and hardware.
      KTM RC 200 – Rs 12,000 price hike
      As compared to other bikes, KTM RC 200 has the highest price hike of Rs 12,000. It is now available at a starting price of Rs 2.33 lakh, as compared to Rs 2.21 lakh earlier. Powering the KTM RC 200 is a 199.5 cc, liquid-cooled engine that generates 25.8 PS and 19.5 Nm of torque. The bike has a 6-speed gearbox. KTM RC 200 takes on rivals such as Yamaha R15 V4, Bajaj Pulsar RS 200, Hero Karizma XMR and Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 (all prices Ex-sh).

      MG Windsor Pro Vs Creta Electric VS Curvv EV – Specs, Performance Compared

      by

      MG Windsor Pro vs Creta Electric vs Curvv EVMG Windsor Pro was launched in India for an introductory price of Rs 17.49 lakh (Ex-sh) for the first 8,000 buyers. At this introductory price, Windsor Pro undercuts base prices of Hyundai Creta Electric and Tata Curvv EV, despite being a top-spec variant. These base variants of Creta Electric and Curvv EV come equipped with smaller batteries with less range and features.
      Those 8,000 bookings came in under a day and the new Ex-sh price is Rs 18.1 lakh, which is still around the base prices of Creta Electric and Curvv EV. But in this comparison, we will compare Windsor Pro with absolute top variant of Creta Electric and Curvv EV across specs, powertrain and performance.
      MG Windsor Pro Vs Rivals
      As seen in the charts, Windsor Pro appears as the most affordable top-spec variant in this comparison as it is priced at Rs 18.1 lakh (Ex-sh). Curvv EV tops out at Rs 22.24 lakh (Ex-sh) for Empowered+ A 55 #Dark variant and Creta Electric emerges as the most expensive at Rs 24.38 lakh (Ex-sh) for Excellence 51.4 LR DT. At these price points, let’s compare the specs.
      Creta Electric is the longest in this comparison, but Windsor Pro is the widest, tallest and has the longest wheelbase. Curvv EV’s wheelbase is the smallest and similar to that of Nexon’s. There’s no frunk on offer with Windsor Pro because it has a small bonnet and most of its length is utilised on the inside. It is easily the most spacious in this trio by a landslide.
      MG Windsor Pro vs Creta Electric vs Curvv EV – Dimensions
      Curvv EV’s 500L boot is not bad, but Windsor Pro offers 579L and regular Windsor has an even larger boot. Curvv EV and Windsor Pro offer 18-inch alloy wheels and have 186 mm ground clearance, while Creta Electric has smaller 17-inch alloys, but a higher 200 mm ground clearance. All vehicles in this comparison offer 215-section tyres.
      Windsor Pro is the only one that is a born electric vehicle, while other two are derived EVs. Tata Curvv EV is the only with with a crash safety rating (5 Star, BNCAP). All three vehicles get a single-motor FWD layout and they all get 6 airbags, 360-degree cameras and a sophisticated Level-2 ADAS suite.
      Powertrains Compared
      Curvv EV has the biggest battery at 55 kWh and correspondingly, the highest range at 502 km (ARAI). Windsor Pro promises 449 km on a single charge from its 52.9 kWh pack and Creta Electric promises 473 km on a single charge from its 51.4 kWh battery pack. All of them come with variable regen modes to replenish the battery, but Creta Electric is the only one to get i-Pedal mode (one pedal driving), which is really handy.
      MG Windsor Pro vs Creta Electric vs Curvv EV – Specs
      Creta Electric is the most powerful in this trio as it packs 171 bhp and 255 Nm, promising a 0-100 km/h in 7.9s. Curvv EV is second and Windsor Pro is not designed to be hustled. Where AC charging is concerned, Creta Electric comes out on top again as it offers an 11 kW charger, while Windsor Pro gets 7.4 kW and Curvv EV 7.2 kW. Due to that, charging times are also lowest on Creta Electric. In DC charging, Curvv EV pulls ahead, but you need to find a compatible charger to match those speeds.
      While all three vehicles have their Pros and Cons, it is obvious to see why Windsor Pro sells as much as it does. It is the most affordable of this bunch by a landslide and it is the only one with flexible BaaS (Battery as a Service) plans. It is also the most spacious and tech-savvy. Curvv EV’s strength is that it is stylish with its Coupe SUV design and Creta Electric’s strength is that it is a Creta, which is still quite unshakable. More
