Aprilia SR 125 vs Hero Maestro Edge 125 Comparison

The Aprilia SR 125 makes a fantastic entry-level scooter under the Italian brand. It looks premium, thanks to the shared components with the SR 160 and certainly is quite fun to ride. While the performance is certainly noteworthy, the minimalist feature list might not be to everyone's taste and that is where the competition takes the lead.

The Hero Maestro Edge 125 gets a competitive entry price starting from ₹ 58,500 for the drum brake version, but the FI model is priced at a steep ₹ 62,700 (all prices, ex-showroom Delhi). For the money, it manages to tick all the right boxes in terms of offering the essentials in a 125 cc model. It’s not outrightly sporty and it isn’t commuter-ish either, it sits in a sweet spot right in the middle where it’s exciting enough for a new user but commuter enough for day to day responsibilities.
