India’s favorite scooter just got smarter! The 2025 Suzuki Access 125 has officially launched with a groundbreaking 4.2-inch TFT display and enhanced connectivity features. This isn’t just another yearly update – it’s a complete transformation that brings cutting-edge technology to your daily commute.
Suzuki has updated its best-selling product with a host of improvements to make it even better than before. The Japanese manufacturer clearly listened to customer feedback and delivered exactly what modern riders wanted.
Revolutionary Display Technology Takes Center Stage
TFT Screen Changes Everything
The new Access features a 4.2 inch colored TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) Digital Console. This modern display offers brighter visuals, faster refresh rates, and higher contrast ratios compared to traditional LCD screens. Whether you’re riding under bright sunlight or navigating through dark streets, the display remains crystal clear.
For the first time, a mass-market made-in-India Suzuki 2W vehicle has been offered with a TFT instrument cluster. This represents a significant milestone for the brand and shows their commitment to bringing premium technology to everyday riders.
Smart Connectivity Features
The Bluetooth-enabled console transforms your riding experience completely. Features include Weather Updates, Turn by Turn Navigation, Call, SMS & WhatsApp Alerts, Speed Exceeding Alert, ETA Updates, Phone Battery Level Display. Imagine never missing an important message or getting lost in unfamiliar areas again!
Digital wallet functionality adds another layer of convenience. You can store soft copies of your driving license and vehicle registration directly on the scooter’s display. No more worrying about forgetting important documents at home.
Engine Performance Gets a Boost
SEP Technology Delivers Excellence
The Engine is powered by cutting edge Suzuki Eco Performance (SEP) technology which delivers Superior Fuel Efficiency while also achieving Powerful Acceleration. This isn’t just marketing speak – the results are genuinely impressive.
The Access is powered by a 125cc, single-cylinder engine, which now complies with the latest OBD-2B emission norms. It produces 8.3 BHP @ 6,500 rpm and 10.2 Nm @ 5,000 rpm. More importantly, maximum torque has been increased and is now achieved at a lower rpm (5,500 -> 5,000 rpm).
Cold Weather Performance
The new clutch springs continue to allow engine starts at temperatures as low as -10°C. This means reliable starting even during harsh winter mornings. The roller type one-way clutch also ensures quieter engine startup.
Fuel efficiency remains excellent with reported figures of 45-50 kmpl in real-world conditions. The fuel tank capacity has increased to 5.3 liters, giving you extended range between fill-ups.

Design Evolution Strikes the Perfect Balance
Subtle Yet Impactful Changes
Suzuki has kept the familiar look of the Access 125 intact but given it subtle updates. The design philosophy focuses on evolution rather than revolution, ensuring existing customers feel comfortable with the changes.
The new LED headlamp has a square shape with rounded edges and a chrome bezel, which looks quite premium. LED position lights come in an iconic U-shaped design that improves visibility during day and night riding.
Enhanced Practicality
Suzuki has tried to make the scooter more practical by adding two storage pockets on the front and increasing the underseat storage space from 21.8 litres to 24.4 litres. The external fuel filler cap finally addresses a long-standing customer request.
Dual front pockets provide convenient storage for phones, keys, and portable chargers. The USB charging port is strategically placed near the front pocket for easy smartphone charging without accessing underseat storage.
Safety and Convenience Features
Advanced Braking System
The Combined Braking System (CBS) comes standard across all variants. Higher variants get disc brakes for improved stopping power and better feel. The braking system provides confidence-inspiring performance in urban traffic conditions.
Parking brake and side stand interlock enhance safety during parking. These features prevent accidental rolling and ensure the engine won’t start with the side stand down.
Storage Solutions
The scooter has large 24.4L under-seat storage which can easily accommodate a full-face helmet, shopping bags, purse and shoes. Two utility hooks – including a front hook placed higher to prevent luggage dragging – add practical versatility.
The integrated storage solutions make daily errands easier. Whether you’re grocery shopping or commuting to work, there’s adequate space for your belongings.
Competition Analysis
Market Positioning
The Suzuki Access 125 mainly competes against the Honda Activa 125, Hero Destini 125, and the TVS Jupiter 125. The new technology features give Access 125 a significant competitive advantage.
Honda Activa 125 recently introduced its own TFT display, making this segment increasingly tech-focused. TVS Jupiter 125 offers good value but lacks advanced connectivity. Hero Destini 125 provides decent features but doesn’t match Access 125’s technology integration.
Value Proposition
The Access 125’s strength lies in balancing performance, fuel efficiency, and modern features. It is one of the strongest contenders in the 125cc scooter segment with its comprehensive feature set.
The SEP technology delivers superior fuel efficiency without compromising acceleration. This combination is particularly appealing for daily commuters who want both economy and performance.
Real-World Performance
Urban Mobility Champion
The 12-inch front wheel provides adequate stability when negotiating turns. The scooter feels composed and confident in city traffic. Kerb weight of just 106kg makes it easy to maneuver through tight spaces.
Suspension setup handles Indian road conditions well. Most bumps and potholes are absorbed effectively, though sharp impacts can still be felt. The stability remains unaffected even over larger bumps at speed.
Fuel Efficiency Results
In testing, the 2025 Suzuki Access 125 easily delivered about 55kmpl in mixed conditions. This impressive figure showcases the effectiveness of SEP technology in real-world scenarios.
The 5.3-liter fuel tank combined with excellent efficiency provides substantial range. Urban commuters can expect several days of usage between fill-ups, depending on daily mileage.
Technology Integration
Smartphone Connectivity
The Suzuki mobile application enhances the connected experience. Features include last parked location tracking, vehicle health monitoring, and trip analytics. The app integrates seamlessly with the scooter’s display system.
Turn-by-turn navigation eliminates the need for separate GPS devices. The display shows clear directions while keeping your smartphone safely stored. Weather notifications help you prepare for changing conditions during longer rides.
