OVERVIEW

Performance and Engine

The Suzuki Avenis features a 124.3cc, single-cylinder, 4-stroke, air-cooled engine that generates 8.7 PS at 6,750 rpm and 10 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. It delivers brisk acceleration, making it ideal for city riding and brief highway trips.

In real-world scenarios, users often report mileage around 50 km per litre, with some even achieving over 60 km per litre due to the scooter’s lightweight design and refined engine tuning. This efficiency makes the Avenis a practical option for daily commuting in India, even in city traffic
