- The sharply styled Avenis 125 will take its place alongside the Address 110 in Suzuki’s spec-rich urban scooter line-up, powered by a single-cylinder, two-valve, air-cooled engine (6.4kW/10Nm) which meets Euro 5 emissions; mated to a twist-and-go CVT transmission.
Comfortable, fun and well-appointed, the Avenis platform speaks of sharp lines, distinctive graphics, aerodynamic efficiency and a sporty edge. The machine also blends the latest technology and features such as Bluetooth connectivity, LED headlights and combined braking with comfort, versatility and the utilitarian traits which are the hallmark of the scooter genre.
The engine is based on a power-plant with a proven track record for both performance and reliability, already powering well over five million Suzuki scooters in Asian and Latin American markets since 2007.
A major factor in that bulletproof engineering is Suzuki’s ‘Eco Performance’ technology which optimises all aspects of engine efficiency and combines powerful acceleration - more than enough to ride tandem - with low fuel consumption. The compact and light-weight low-friction engine has excellent duarability, a long service life, low running costs and is easy to maintain.
The front fairing features vertically stacked LED headlights which are bright, compact and power efficient, while the highly visible front indicators are integrated into the handlebar cowl accompanied by a sleek smoked screen which enhances the sporty styling.
Cast aluminium wheels are light and add a stylish flair, and Suzuki’s Combined Brake System distributes appropriate force to both the front and rear wheels when the left brake lever is operated.
The scooter’s slim design contributes to nimble handling on city streets, combined with ample ground clearance and a roomy floorboard with a unique cut-away design which makes it easier to plant both feet firmly on the ground when stationary.
Comfort is also a priority. The Avenis 125's double-stitched two-tone seat is spacious, and the independent right and left aluminium grab handles add a level of assurance for pillions.
The Avenis’s hinged tail-mounted fuel cap presents two main benefits: it facilitates easy refueling because the seat doesn’t have to be opened, and there is no risk of soiling the floorboard or bags and other items that might be hanging from the carrying hooks or the floorboard.
The Avenis 125 has wide-ranging utility benefits, including 21.5 litres of underseat storage, a pair of handy front compartments with closable lids, a USB outlet for charging smartphones, and the Suzuki Easy Start System.
There’s a compact LCD screen, illuminated to maximise visibility both day and night. The comprehensive suite of information includes the speedometer, clock, current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, engine temperature, odometer, dual tripmeters, fuel gauge, battery voltage meter and oil change interval reminder. The Suzuki Eco Drive Indicator also lights up when the scooter is being ridden in a fuel-efficient manner.
The shutter concealing the ignition key hole can be opened quickly, even when wearing gloves, using a magnet mechanism coded to the owner’s key. Not only does this system help deter theft and tampering, it also includes a seat opener that eliminates the need to remove the key to access the underseat utility compartment.
The Avenis 125 is on sale online now for $3890 MSRP ($4890 Ride Away), supported by Suzuki’s three-year factory-warranty program (two standard and one bonus). It will be available in two liveries: Pearl Mirage White/Metallic Matt Fibroin Grey or Metallic Matt Fibroin Grey/Metallic Lush Green, and is estimated to arrive locally in January 2023.
Owners can customise their Avenis 125 by selecting Suzuki Genuine accessories available for this model via the Build Your Bike online tool on Suzuki Motorcycles Australia website. Items include colour coded decals and floormats, bike cover, hand guards, a two-tone seat cover, and accessory bars.
As a gesture of Suzuki’s appreciation for customer commitment, online pre-order customers will receive a bonus bike cover and hand guards with their bike delivery.

Nice scooter. Waiting for the Address 125. You got my like. Keep it up.
Great straight to the point review thanks mate
I cannot understand why Suzuki would bring in another small scooter into their range? The Suzuki Address is a $1000 cheaper and a great entry level scooter. You would think that Suzuki would launch a new 200-250 maxi scooter that is similar to the Burgman with more modern features. I see the Avenis as a poor show of judgment, and with the price a staggering $1000 more than the Address it's a massive overpay already in tight market with low wage growth and high inflation. Pull up your socks Suzuki marketeers!
What sort of top speed are you getting at your size and weight ?
They do 55mph.
way too costly for a 125CC Scooter. Suzuki has gone nuts with the pricing. They literally cost half the ride away price back in India.
