The Burgman was launched back in 2018 and since then it has proven to be a strong-seller for Suzuki. It is often credited for kickstarting the pseudo-maxi scooter segment in India. Now, Suzuki has teased on its social media, what seems to be a new generation of the Burgman, slated to launch on April 2.
1. Suzuki Burgman could receive updates similar to the new Access
2. Teased image reveals a new split-headlight setup
3. The Burgman range currently starts from Rs 93,676
Suzuki Burgman teased: What to expect?
The Burgman was launched back in 2018
The Suzuki Burgman has been on-sale for quite some years and has largely remained the same. A larger 12-inch rear wheel - Street EX - variant was launched in 2022 but the brand hasn’t tinkered around with the design or fundamentals since launch. Now, via a social media post, Suzuki has teased the headlight of the upcoming new-gen Burgman. The brand has also confirmed that it will be launching this new-generation of the Burgman on April 2.
The headlight reveals a new split design for our market that seems to be inspired by its higher-displacement models such as the Burgman 200 and Burgman 400. It seems like the Burgman could undergo a thorough generational change, like the Access received last year.
The Access received some substantial updates such as a new chassis that was developed due to complications with exhaust muffler routing. The Access also got a new engine, while the bore and stroke figures remained the same, there were many significant changes such as the camshaft, crankshaft and crankcases were all new. However at 8.4hp and 10.2Nm, its power-figures remained unchanged. You could expect similar changes with Burgman specific tweaks paired with an updated design language.
Currently the Burgman range starts at Rs 93,676 to Rs 1.08 lakh for the Street EX that gets a larger 12-inch rear wheel. Suzuki will be launching this new generation Burgman on April 2.
