The Suzuki Access was one of the strongest players in the 125cc scooter segment, and also one of the first movers. Soon, Honda responded with the Activa 125. Mahindra being optimistic, also introduced a 125cc variant of the Gusto.
Now, the 125cc scooter segment isn’t really very popular, as the mass market doesn’t really care about the marginal bump in power and displacement.
However, in cities, these variants sell well because they are available faster.
