• The Suzuki Access 125 BS6 was Suzuki’s first BS6-compliant two-wheeler in India.
• New features include an external fuel filler cap, LED headlamp, and Eco Assist Illumination in the instrument cluster.
• The price hike affects all the variants.

The Suzuki Access 125 BS6 was launched on January 6, 2020, and in just about two months, the Japanese brand has hiked the prices of its best-selling scooter. Here’s a detailed table with the ex-showroom, Delhi prices of all the variants along with the price difference:

Variants	BS6 Suzuki Access 125 Launch Price	BS4 Suzuki Access 125 Latest Price	Price premium
Access 125 Drum (steel wheels)	Rs 64,800	Rs 67,100	Rs 2,300
Access 125 Drum (cast alloy wheels)	Rs 66,800	Rs 69,100	Rs 2,300
Access 125 Disc (cast alloy wheels)	Rs 67,800	Rs 70,000	Rs 2,200
Access 125 Drum Special Edition (cast alloy wheels)	Rs 68,500	Rs 70,800	Rs 2,300
Access 125 Disc Special Edition (cast alloy wheels)	Rs 69,500	Rs 71,700	Rs 2,200

As you can see, the price hike ranges from Rs 2,200 to Rs 2,300. It feels a bit too much considering a 2,000-rupee difference can get you another variant altogether. We’ve reached out to Suzuki for the reason behind the price hike, but are yet to hear from them.

Apart from the price increase, the scooter remains unchanged. The BS6-compliant scooter comes with new features like an external fuel filler cap, LED headlamp, and Eco Assist Illumination in the instrument cluster. This feature lights up the speedometer surround in an appropriate colour based on the riding style. This gives the rider a fair idea about his/her riding style.

The scooter is powered by a 124cc single-cylinder fuel-injected motor, which churns out 8.7PS at 6750rpm and 10Nm at 5500rpm. In comparison, the BS4-compliant Suzuki Access 125 makes 8.7PS at 7000rpm and 10.2Nm at 5000rpm. The scooter primarily rivals the Honda Activa 125 BS6, Yamaha Fascino 125 FI, and the Hero Maestro Edge FI BS6.
