Aprilia unveiled an India-spec maxi-scooter at the Auto Expo held in February 2020 which was seemingly based on the same platform as the SR160. The Aprilia SXR 160 then looked very aggressive and sharp and featured upfront a full LED setup – LED headlight, LED DRLs, a digital instrument console and a bit stretched out floorboard. A mobile charging port is also available in case you find yourself short on some juice in the battery.

The Aprilia SXR 160, in terms of its underpinnings, features a telescopic fork at the front and a mono-shock at the rear. It also sports discs brakes both at the front as well as the rear, along with a single-channel ABS. The Aprilia SXR 160 could feature a pair of 12-inch alloys wheels, unlike the SR 160 that has a pair of 14 inchers on it. There seem to be no specific rivals for the SXR 160 but the closest that anybody comes is the Suzuki Burgman Street.
