Hot on the heels of recently launched Suzuki Gixxer 250 SF and refreshed Gixxer and Gixxer SF (plus the MotoGP Editions of both Gixxer SF 250 and Gixxer SF), Suzuki has launched the Gixxer 250 in India. The price for the quarter-litre streetfighter starts from INR 1,59,800 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
The new Suzuki Gixxer is powered by a 249cc, SOHC, single-cylinder, fuel-injected, and oil-cooled unit that also powers the Suzuki Gixxer SF 250. The power and torque figures are similar to at 26.5 PS and 22.6 Nm, respectively. The power is transmitted to the rear-wheel via a 6-speed gearbox. The motorcycle makes use of the Suzuki Oil Cooling System for better performance.
On the suspension side of the story, the front end features telescopic forks and the rear end utilizes a swingarm-type mono-shock. 17” wheels at both the ends shod with tubeless tyres also carry disc brakes on both the ends. A dual-channel ABS system is standard. With a fuel tank of 12 litres, the new Suzuki Gixxer 250 weighs 156 Kg (wet).
A digital speedometer does the job of transmitting information to the rider. Headlamp and taillamp both are LED units. The twin muffler is short and stubby to keep the mass of the motorcycle centralized and provide good handling characteristics. Apart from that, we have brushed finish alloy-wheels, rear tyre hugger, split seat, split grab rail, and most importantly, the Suzuki Easy Start System.
The new Suzuki Gixxer 250 is available in two colour options -- Metallic Matte Black and a combination of Metallic Matte Platinum Silver and Metallic Matte Black.
Mr Koichiro Hirao, Company Head, Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt. Ltd., said, “In the last five years, Gixxer brand has become synonymous with Suzuki's attributes of quality, style and performance. It is our constant endeavour to bring a fresh perspective and value to this brand. Today, we are thrilled to launch a stylish and powerful biking experience to our patrons in the form of Suzuki Gixxer 250. This product is a true reflection of Suzuki's legacy in developing high-performance motorcycles of superior quality backed by cutting-edge technology. With this addition to the Gixxer portfolio, we look forward to riding upwards and continue the growth momentum.”
Mr Devashish Handa, Vice President, SMIPL said, “We have taken it upon ourselves to introduce our patrons to the thrill of the ride with the Gixxer series without compromising on style and efficiency. With the Suzuki Gixxer 250, we want our consumers to upgrade their riding experience to something stronger. We are confident that our latest offering will receive the same adoration as its predecessors. We are hopeful that the Suzuki Gixxer 250 will reinforce our position as a popular youth brand in India.”
