SR range of sporty scooters have been launched with special editions to boost sales and create interest around them. Aprilia currently offers SR range in two variations – SR 125 with a 125cc engine and SR 175, with a 175cc engine. Both these scooters now get a special Tribute Edition which starts from Rs 1.17 lakh (Ex-sh).
Aprilia SR Tribute Edition
Where pricing is concerned, Aprilia SR 125 Tribute Edition has been priced at Rs 1.17 lakh (Ex-sh), which is commanding Rs 3,000 more than the standard variant on which it is based. Aprilia SR 175, on the other hand, has been priced at Rs 1.24 lakh (Ex-sh) and it is commanding Rs 2,000 more than its standard counterpart.
Mechanically, both SR 125 Tribute Edition and SR 175 Tribute Edition are identical to their respective standard counterparts. The changes lie in cosmetics and aesthetics. SR 125 Tribute Edition and SR 175 Tribute Editions come with a unique camouflage livery that lends an entirely new aesthetic to the scooter.
This new camouflage livery with Tribute Editions come with a sort of Olive Green base colour which gets a matte finish. This matte green colour is tastefully contrasted with Yellow and Red slats to complete the camouflage effect. This triple colour camouflage effect can be seen on front apron and side body panels.
There is also a Brown matte shade which we can see at the rear end of side body panels, near the SR 125 or SR 175 badging. Red pinstriping (or taping) can be seen on their alloy wheels, which pop on the Black base shade for 14-inch alloy wheels seen on both SR 125 Tribute Edition and SR 175 Tribute Edition.
Same Engines As Before
As stated above, both SR 125 and SR 175 are mechanically identical to their standard counterparts. So they retain their respective engines – 124.45cc and 174.7cc. SR 125’s 124.45cc engine is capable of delivering 10.46 bhp and 10.4 Nm, while SR 175’s 175.7cc engine is capable of extracting 13.08 bhp and 14.14 Nm.
Both ride on 14-inch alloy wheels and enjoy a reputation of being premium offerings. Apart from the Tribute Edition colour, SR 125 is offered in Glossy Mazda Grey + Gloss Black, Glossy Red + Matte Black and Matte Black colours. SR 175, on the other hand, gets Matte Prismatic Dark, Glossy Tech White and GP Replica.
