Reviews of Suzuki Avenis 125

I brought a suzuki Avenis (black) at the end of January. I got it registered within 3 working days. The riding experience was really good. The pickup and acceleration were unexpected (so smooth and silent). I had completed my first service. It costs roughly 400rs. There is no compromise on performance or design. About mileage, i usually get ~50km/h while riding in eco mode. If you are riding 55-60 km/h in power mode, you may get ~35 km/h (still a good number). The suspension is a little stiff. But the seat is comfortable. I personally like my scooter. I rode 400 kms till now and i will update my review after 1000kms. Have a nice day!

About the Reviewer

Totally satisfied. Its conservative family scooter looks, excellent levels of performance, refinement, and fuel efficiency. Avenis cuts a rather sporty figure and is definitely a striking-looking thing. Fatter rubber along with a 12-inch rear wheel would've gone a long way. Usb charger, fuel filler is external, Bluetooth fully-digital instrument console, led headlight and tail-lamp dashing. If you're looking for a scooter for a truly sporty riding experience best choice is avenis.

About the Reviewer

A new Zippier, sportier 125cc scooter from Suzuki with stylish & premium looks with likes of Ntorq. Priced a bit higher from its rivals is surely a worthy product. Produces 8.7Ps power & 10Nm torque with super refined engine & great ride dynamics. USB charger and external fuel cap is a great addition & much more. A good Mileage and better handling expected.

About the Reviewer

Was looking for a second-hand scooter for a short grocery commute for my Senior citizen father, checked a few here and there but was not satisfied with the price vs conditions after thorough research felt a New scooter would be much beneficial and a worry-free purchase.
Researched online for a daily commute scooter with practical use features. As I already owned a 2015 Honda Activa 3G, another Activa was ruled out also it would be a featureless purchase. Was waiting for a Maxi scooter from Honda but the wait is never-ending. Had listed out Yamaha Aerox, TVS Ntorq, Suzuki Burgman and Ather 450x and was in love with Aerox with all its suspension & plastic quality demerits. The only thing that kept me away from buying Aerox was the ease of availability at the Showroom and later its usability for my father as it was also one of the reasons to buy a scooter and not a bike. Dropped Aerox due to cost and plastic quality issues and to avoid compulsive buying. While researching for other 125 cc scooters came across Suzuki Avenis, it had almost all the features if not all for a comfortable commute. With sporty looks and mileage more than most other scooters, turn-by-turn navigation, full digital display and pockets on both sides for small stuff make it the ideal scooter for family & younger generation.
Experience at the showroom was a roller-coaster ride, with all good and one bad experience. Came in to check out Avenis and was impressed with the looks and features which one or the other scooters missed. It was sold to me within an hour, with delivery promised the next day morning. The only downside was I was told 8% interest but the same came to around 17% which in that glitter I missed calculating myself. Also I was promised free Accessories like a Helmet, floor mat, indicator buzzer, side step, seat cover, handle bar grip & 3ltrs Fuel all was which was honoured just the helmet was non-genuine.
Great Looks! It’s a Head-turner, especially the Grey-Green combo, never expected people to stand and stare at a Scooter. But hey all that glitter is not gold, it too has its share of issues along with Pros.
Let’s start with Pro's-
>Above 55kmpl Mileage (got max 67kmpl on Highway)
> Sporty Aggressive Looks
> Good under-seat storage space can fit a basic full-face Helmet.
> 2 Hooks for your groceries in front.
> 1 Closed Glove box with USB charging & 1 bottle holder on either side
> Good suspensions much smoother rides in Tar Road.
>Good riding posture for the Rider & and a step-up seat for the Pillion.
Now the Con's Read carefully as for some issues I have not found a single review highlighting these issues.
> Starter Noise is way too loud (my 7-year-old Activa is much quieter).
> Cluster Display buttons are very hard to press even harder when to need to long press for reset, this is something missed by all reviewers.
> Engine Noise though it's smooth It doesn't feel/sound refined or like new.
> Hand Brake is too tight to operate, in two months not even a single time I have been able to engage hand brake even by using 2 hands.
> Turn By Turn Navigation requires you to study the Turn symbols beforehand with only major destination available in search (Map my India)
> Don't know if it’s the main stand placement or the hollow wide grab rail which makes it difficult to put the scooter in the main stand.
> No Pass or Hazard or Auto Start/stop.
The main turn-off was during the first Service had highlighted the issues with the service center but for Suzuki the Starter and engine noise, tight handbrake and hard-to-press cluster buttons are normal and nothing can be done for the same. The First Service was done at 750km and required an Oil Change with the overall cost coming to around ₹400/-.
The My Suzuki App is just okay with nothing much to offer, would be of much use if had a fuel log or provided actual riding data which is available with other manufacturers.
Overall I still feel it’s a better Scooter with a mix of all elements like style, comfort and mileage. One Ride on Tar road highway and you sold.

About the Reviewer

A perfect scooty for daily use and it has great mileage in the city and on a long ride it’s a perfect comfort which gives a perfect ride for a long trip at a low cost a perfect can’t imagine and it also has a charging point in it and one more feature is the petrol one u don’t have to open the seat to pour petrol u can pour petrol while seating too.

About the Reviewer

I bought the scooter from a local dealer in bapuji nagar bhubaneswar. The bike riding is extremely comfortable. Looks are good but I feel that led indicators should have been there. Mileage till today for me is around 45kmpl new bike without first service. The cost of accesories is too much but they are genuine.
Pro's:
Nice riding experience
Good mileage
Good meter console
Good seat size
Nice leg space
Pickup is a good tried and tested engine
Cons:
No led indicators
Braking jerks initially
Costly accessories.

About the Reviewer

Great experience in buying Suzuki avenis, riding experience is amazing the best smooth riding, looks professional, superb servicing and maintenance. Great pick-up, everything is great. I have a great experience using avenis.... I would be saying it's the best technology in recent time in the market.

About the Reviewer

I don't own this scooter, but I did have some test rides of it, because I wanted to upgrade from my 2015 Swish 125 facelift.
THINGS I LIKED:
1. STYLING: Since I was looking for a sports-styled body, the Avenis did catch my eye. It is a good-looking, handsome scooter with sharp graphics all over the body.
2. FEATURES: Not the best in class features here but you'll find most things that modern scooters get. Bluetooth, Navigation, Disc Brakes, Charging port, it has all those basics covered.
3: REFINEMENT: The 125cc Suzuki engine is very refined and reliable. It doesn't transfer unnecessary vibrations to the body. Keep it serviced and you'll have a trouble-free experience in the engine department at least. You can cruise on the highway at 70-75km/h all day and the engine will still run as smoothly as silk.
THINGS I DID NOT LIKE:
1. THE ELECTRONICS: These issues existed with my Swish 125 as well, and it's sad that they haven't changed their ways in 10 years. If you are coming from a Honda/TVS, you'll know exactly what I mean. The switches and the wiring are not very high quality and you'll see that with time.
2. THE BUILD QUALITY: Same goes for the panel fit and finish. The plastic parts are good but the bits that connect them, when they break (which they will after some time), the entire thing could start rattling. Some of these parts are not screwed but they are connected joint-to-joint. These are the places where things can break.
3. THE EXPECTATION VS. WHAT YOU GET: My problem is, when I'm looking for a sports scooter, I'm expecting slightly better performance than regular/commuter 125cc scooters. You don't get that here. When TVS did their NTorq, they did not just take a Jupiter 125cc engine and put it in a racy body. They returned the engine, put on bigger wheels, tuned the suspension and put on a different exhaust, making it more powerful, sports-oriented, and different than their Jupiter 125. Hero did the same with their Xoom 125 by making it different from their Destini 125. So you get 14-inch wheels, and a different engine tune, which makes it go from 0-60 in the quickest time. But, has Suzuki made the Avenis different/unique? Naah. It's just a Suzuki Access in different clothing. This would have been fine if it were priced well, but no. It costs just as much as the Xoom or NTorq, and the Avenis underperform both of those. Don't get me wrong, it's still pretty quick, but when you're in a market looking for a sports scooter, I can see why people would overlook the Avenis. Not because its not a good product, but because it isn't offering anything unique to the customer. And since it's just an Access in a different clothing, people end up buying the Access instead, which is cheaper and has the same performance level and features.
VERDICT: I like the Avenis. It has the basics right. It will do everything a 125cc scooter should do and it's very, very refined. It handles well, it is quick, comfortable, and it has all the features. But if performance is your top priority, you have better choices at this price point. And Suzuki needs to do something. My 2015 Swish has almost the same power and torque figures as their newer models. They need to wake up and up their engine performance and build quality.
