Ather 450 vs Suzuki Burgman Street Comparison

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.

The 2026 Suzuki Burgman Street is a more refined maxi-scooter than earlier. The looks, mechanical updates, a stiffer chassis, larger 12-inch rear wheel, keyless ignition, and a sharp TFT screen improve the overall experience by a fair margin.

Preetam Bora correctly pointed out in his review, “If you're an urban commuter who values style and features over pure sportiness, the new Burgman Street 125 is the scooter for you.”

However, missing out on ABS remains a clear oversight by Suzuki, especially when its Access 125 does. Nevertheless, if you want a comfortable, decently equipped, robust and reasonably frugal 125 cc scooter with that all-out maxi look, the Burgman is a safe choice.
