V-Strom SX gets a new colour but no changes otherwise
Uses the same 249cc engine and features
As mentioned above, the Suzuki V-Strom SX uses the same 249cc oil-cooled single-cylinder engine, which delivers 26.5hp at 9,000rpm and 22.2Nm of torque at 7,300rpm paired with a 6-speed gearbox. The design, features and pricing remain the same as the existing model. Suzuki is now also offering a Rynox apparel voucher worth Rs 5,000 to the V-Strom SX customers, subject to terms and conditions.
At this price point the V-Strom SX is now competing against other popular offerings in the adventure segment like the Hero Xpulse 210 (Rs 1.68 lakh to Rs 1.77 lakh) and TVS Apache RTX 300 (Rs 1.99 lakh to Rs 2.39 lakh). For those in the market for a simple Japanese machine with an air/oil-cooled engine in this displacement bracket, there’s also the new Honda XR300L (Rs 1.83 lakh) and XR300 Rally (Rs 2.08 lakh) which will be factored in, although the Hondas are far more off-road capable than the Suzuki.
