Suzuki E-Access India Launch Likely By Late 2024
Suzuki, a stalwart in the two-wheeler realm, is gearing up for a transformative move – the introduction of an electric version of its beloved Access scooter. Set to hit the market in the third quarter of 2024, this electrifying endeavour aligns Suzuki with the likes of Honda, as both giants venture into the electric scooter domain. Dive deeper into this electrifying evolution below.
Electric Evolution: Access Redefined
The forthcoming Access electric scooter is poised to retain the iconic design elements of its predecessor, the Access 125 while embracing the nuances of electric design language. Although official revelations regarding the motor specifications, battery capacity, and range remain under wraps, industry speculations suggest Suzuki may bestow the Access with a range exceeding 100km. This extended range not only instils confidence in commuters but also positions the scooter as a reliable companion for daily travel. With a focus on practicality, Suzuki aims to craft a scooter that seamlessly integrates into daily routines and serves as a versatile family ride. While the possibility of battery swapping remains speculative, it’s a feature enthusiasts would eagerly welcome.
Feature-Focused and Affordable
Affordability takes centre stage in Suzuki’s electric endeavour. The e-Access is anticipated to sport fundamental features like a digital display and USB charging port, ensuring competitive pricing. This pragmatic approach contrasts with the trend of high-tech features prevalent in some electric scooters. However, Suzuki remains committed to preserving quintessential Access traits, including generous under-seat storage and a plush, ergonomic seat, in its electric iteration.
Shifting Focus: From Burgman to Access
While all eyes are on the electric Access, Suzuki initially hinted at the launch of the electric Burgman, showcased on international platforms. Prototypes of the e-Burgman even underwent testing in India. However, Suzuki’s strategic decision to debut its electric scooter lineup with the Access, India’s favorite scooter brand, underscores the brand’s commitment to meeting market demands and catering to the preferences of Indian riders.
As Suzuki embarks on this electrifying journey, the landscape of urban mobility in India is poised for a revolutionary shift. With the Access electric scooter leading the charge, Suzuki aims to redefine the narrative of eco-friendly commuting, one electrifying ride at a time.
