Can you please suggest a 150cc scooter? I haven’t set a budget but the scooter should offer a strong performance, handling and be good looking.
Souvik Dutta, via email

AAA Currently, there are only two 150cc scooters available in the Indian market, the Vespa 150 and the Aprilia SR150. Most of us here are Autocar think that the Vespa looks simply stunning. However, when it comes to performance and handling, there’s no beating the Aprilia. It is simply the best in these parameters, compared to every other scooter in India right now. And to be honest, it looks fairly nice as well, especially in the silver-red-green Aprilia WSBK livery offered on the SR 150 Race edition.
