A month after unveiling the Intruder BS6
at Auto Expo 2020, Suzuki has launched it in India today. The new Suzuki
Intruder BS6's price is INR 1.20 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). To comply with the
less harmful and more stringent BS6 emission norms, the new Suzuki Intruder has
been given a fuel-injection system and Suzuki’s SEP technology. This should
improve the bike’s throttle response, performance as well as fuel efficiency.
Also, the engine will operate more smoothly.
The 155 cc single-cylinder, SOHC engine of
the Suzuki Intruder produces 13.6 PS of maximum power and 13.8 Nm of peak
torque in its BS6 version. In comparison, in its BS4 version, it develops 14.1
PS and 14 Nm. Like in the old bike, the engine is linked to a 5-speed transmission.
In terms of styling, the new Suzuki
Intruder BS6 is exactly the same as its BS4 counterpart. It features a sharp
twin-barrel exhaust, LED taillight, LED DRL, digital instrument cluster,
comfortable and upright riding posture, premium backrest for the pillion, etc.
The overall design of the Intruder isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. Most will
either love it or hate it, there’s no middle ground.
The shock absorption tasks on the Suzuki
Intruder are handled by conventional telescopic front forks and a rear
mono-shock. Anchoring duties are performed by disc brake on both ends aided by
a single-channel ABS.
The new Suzuki Intruder BS6 is available
in three colour options - Metallic Matte Black / Candy Sanoma Red, Glass
Sparkle Black / Metallic Matte Titanium Silver and Metallic Matte Titanium
Silver - and now at dealerships nationwide.
