Aprilia has launched updated versions of the SR 125 and SR 160 with prices starting at ₹ 1.08 lakh and ₹ 1.17 lakh respectively. Further, the SR 160 is available in Carbon and Race variants priced at ₹ 1.20 lakh and ₹ 1.27 lakh (ex-showroom, Pune) respectively.
Both these versions differ from the standard scooter in colours and graphics schemes. The face-lifted Aprilia SRs sport a new, sharper design, and look more modern thanks, in part, to a new V-shaped LED headlight and new LED tail-lamp. The apron and grab rails have been redesigned, it gains knuckle guards, and the seats also now sport a split design, which is quite unusual for a scooter.
The earlier MRF tyres have now been replaced by CEAT units. Instrumentation is now fully digital with the SR borrowing the SXR 160’s LCD screen. This means a large and crisp display, with readouts for trip, speed and fuel consumption data, as well as a tachometer, which is also quite unusual for a scooter. Like on the SXR, this display is yet to receive Bluetooth connectivity.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
