Aprilia SXR 160 vs Ather 450 Comparison

The Aprilia SXR 160 brings the aspirational maxi-styling in a relatively achievable package to the masses. It offers a European style to the buyers which is paired to a punchy engine with enough performance to keep you content. It has good road presence and loads of pracality owing to a lot of storage spaces. But the pinch point is that Aprilia doesn’t have a wide dealership and after sales support network in India which might prove to be an issue for a lot of customers, especially those that don’t reside in urban areas.

It is a viable alternative to a conventional scooter offering impressive performance, excellent riding dynamics and, sheer practicality despite the limited range. The scooter's tech-laden nature also makes it quite the gadget to have. With an asking price of about ₹ 1.25 lakh (on-road, Bangalore), the Ather 450 isn't too differently priced than the top-of-the-line iPhone. In either case, it's a premium for what's on sale but we do think it's a worthy buy, for you will enjoy the experience.
