Piaggio India has launched the 2020
Aprilia Storm 125 disc brake variant in India. The BS6-compliant 125cc scooter
with better braking performance comes at a sticker price of INR 91,321*. The
2020 Aprilia Storm 125 disc brake variant was showcased at the Auto Expo 2020
that was held earlier this year. It was originally scheduled to be introduced
in the Indian market in March-April, however, perhaps, the Covid-19 pandemic
might have pushed things off the track. Now, as some form of normalcy is
gradually getting restore in the nation, Piaggio India launched the 2020
Aprilia Storm 125 disc brake variant in the country.
As the name suggests, the disc brake
variant of the 2020 Aprilia Storm 125 comes equipped with a 220mm disc brake
with a 2-pot calliper at the front. The rear continues to feature a drum brake.
Piaggio India has not included ABS with the new scooter, however, it does come
with CBS (Combined Braking System). The company has also provided 12-inch
wheels which are wrapped with cross-pattern tyres. Apart from the front disc
brake, the 2020 Aprilia Storm disc brake variant also gets a fully-digital
instrument cluster.
In terms of aesthetics, the new 2020
Aprilia Storm 125 disc brake variant is similar to the standard variant of the
scooter. It features a simple yet sporty design with an attractive front end.
The side-mounted exhaust, high-rise tail section, and blacked-out alloy wheels
keep the side profile of the scooter busy. As for the colour options, there are
two shades available - Red and Yellow.
Powering the 2020 Aprilia Storm 125 disc
brake variant is a familiar 125cc single-cylinder engine which complies with
the stricter Bharat Stage 6 emission standards. The fuel-injected mill with 3
valves has been tuned to produce 9.5 PS of maximum power and 9.9 Nm of peak
torque.
