Piaggio India launched the Aprilia SR 125, unveiled the Aprilia Storm and introduced an innovative smart mobile connectivity feature for Vespa and Aprilia scooters. With these unique offerings on display at Piaggio’s Pavilion at the Auto Expo 2018, Piaggio is growing its portfolio across segments.
The Aprilia SR 125 comes with a 125 cc, 3 valve engine, 14-inch big wheels and wider tyres continuing the fun-riding experience. Its attractive exterior theme with new colours makes it a stunner while a longer seat and a raised grab handle deliver extra comfort to the rider as well as the pillion. Priced at Rs. 65,310/- ex showroom Pune, the Aprilia SR 125 will be available across Aprilia and Vespa dealerships in India.
The Aprilia story continues with the Aprilia Storm, which is specially designed for the youth. The dynamic exterior theme with vibrant colours, 12-inch wheels with wide terrain tyres, high powered 125 cc engine and customisation through accessories makes it a unique experience from Aprilia to the Fun loving generation Z of today.
Piaggio launched a mobile connectivity app at the Auto Expo 2018 which will empower riders to operate and control features of Vespa and Aprilia through their mobile phones. To be available on the android and IOS platform soon, this smart feature can be installed by a simple download on the mobile phone, connecting the bike either manually or through a QR code. All the information related to the bike is stored on the feature and riders can find, navigate and follow their bikes using the smart connectivity app. It is also equipped with a panic alert feature, wherein riders can reach out to the registered number configured with the current location and ask for help in case of an emergency. Additionally, one can book a service on the app, locate nearby service stations, petrol pumps and connect with customer care executives.
Also on display at the Piaggio Pavilion were Piaggio’s other global propositions such as Vespa GTS, Aprilia RS 150, Tuono 150 and its next generation technology offering, the Vespa Elettrica.
