Suzuki Access 125 2026 Gets Big Safety Boost With ABS and Smarter Tech India’s Favourite Family Scooter

Suzuki’s best-selling scooter has entered 2026 with a major update focused on safety, convenience, and connected technology. The Suzuki Access 125 2026 has long been a household name in India’s commuter scooter segment, and the newest update shows that Suzuki is not ready to give up its dominance despite rising competition from electric scooters and tech-heavy rivals. The 2026 iteration builds on the big 2025 refresh and adds a crucial feature that many buyers had been waiting for ABS braking.

Here’s everything you need to know about the latest Suzuki Access 125 update.

ABS Finally Arrives on the Access 125

The biggest headline for the 2026 update is the introduction of single-channel ABS, making the Access 125 one of the most affordable scooters in India to offer this safety feature. The new ABS variant starts at Rs 92,328 Ex showroom , while the top Ride Connect TFT ABS variant goes up to Rs 98,378 Ex showroom.

This move is extremely important for the segment because most scooters in this price range still rely on CBS (Combined Braking System). ABS provides better control during panic braking and helps prevent wheel lock-up on slippery roads a huge advantage for everyday city riders dealing with traffic, rain, and unpredictable road conditions.

Suzuki has positioned this update as a response to increasing demand for better safety in daily commuting, especially among urban riders.

Engine Updated for Modern Emission Norms

Under the bodywork, the scooter continues with its trusted 124cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine, now compliant with the latest OBD-2B emission norms.

Power output stands at around 8.4 hp and 10.2 Nm torque, paired with Suzuki Eco Performance (SEP) technology for efficiency and smoother ride quality.

Interestingly, Suzuki slightly reduced horsepower but increased torque compared to older versions, prioritising real-world rideability and fuel efficiency rather than outright performance. This decision perfectly matches the scooter’s target audience families and daily commuters.

The scooter continues to use a CVT automatic transmission, making it beginner-friendly and stress-free to ride in traffic.

Key design updates include:

• Sharper LED headlamp and LED tail lamp
