Suzuki Access 125 Overview

The Suzuki Access 125 is a popular, practical, and easy-to-ride scooter that stands as one of India's best-selling offerings. Built around a single 124cc engine paired with a CVT automatic transmission, it is sold across six distinct variants. Its design features a rounded apron with a simple headlamp unit, chrome mirrors, and a wide, flat floorboard for easy footing.

Depending on the variant chosen, riders get either a digi-analogue, a fully digital display, or a colour TFT screen on higher trims. Ride Connect trims further enhance everyday usability by adding a Bluetooth-linked display with turn-by-turn navigation, music control, and call alerts. Underseat storage is notably generous at 24.4 litres, complementing the roomy floorboard and ample seat space.

Engine Performance and Ride Quality

Powered by a smooth 124cc engine, the Access 125 delivers 8.3 bhp at 6500 rpm and 10.2 Nm of torque at 5000 rpm. Experts praise the motor for its impressive refinement, noting that it remains free of vibrations through the handlebar and floorboard even at speeds reaching 90 kph. The twist-and-go CVT automatic transmission makes city commutes effortless without the hassle of manual gear changes.

With a low 773mm seat height and a light kerb weight of around 105kg, the scooter is exceptionally easy to handle in heavy traffic. However, testers point out that the continued use of a 10-inch rear wheel compromises high-speed stability and cornering, making the scooter feel a bit vague when leaned over aggressively.

Fuel Efficiency and Specifications

Fuel economy is a strong suit, with an ARAI-certified figure of 53.84 kmpl (and test figures varying between 45 to 52 kpl) that helps keep running costs low. A 5.3-litre fuel tank ensures decent range between fill-ups. While efficient, testers note the lack of start-stop technology as a minor drawback that could save even more fuel at traffic signals.
