Suzuki’s all-new Access has impressed us in a lot of ways, and feels better than the original. But can it reclaim its crown of being the best 125cc scooter.
If there’s one scooter that has truly challenged the Honda Activa in terms of popularity, it has to be the Suzuki Access. With its larger 125cc engine, typical Japanese reliability, space and comfort the Access never had trouble becoming the choice of buyers wanting a family scooter. In fact, the Access has been so popular that Honda had to launch a bigger, 125cc version of its ever popular Activa to attract family scooter buyers.
Over the years the Access lost some of its sheen though. Of course, it was launched almost a decade back and has only received minor cosmetic changes since, which helped the Activa 125 do even better. To address the issue, Suzuki has launched the all-new Access 125. The new one has impressed us with its distinctive looks, plush ride quality and feature list. But can it better the Activa 125? A head to head comparison was just what was needed to answer that.
