Prices of BS-VI Aprilia Storm 125, SR 125, & SR 160 revealed

Automobile manufacturers have to implement certain changes in their BS-IV products to make them comply with the new BS-VI emission norms. The number of changes required and the overall cost of the conversion varies from vehicle to vehicle. The prices of some two-wheelers rise significantly during the conversion process. Take Aprilia scooters for instance.

As per a new development, prices of the upcoming BS-VI version of the Aprilia Storm 125, SR 125, and SR 160 have been revealed and the price hikes are huge! It is the Aprilia SR 125 that has received the least amount of price hike at INR 18,490 whereas the Aprilia SR 160 Carbon gets the biggest price hike and is INR 19,441 more expensive than its BS-IV version.
