We spotted the BS6-compliant Vespa flagship, the SXL 150, last week.

Just last week, we brought you exclusive pictures of the BS6-compliant Vespa SXL 150. Now, we’ve gotten our hands on the price list of Vespa and Aprilia range of BS6 scooters. The two Italian manufacturers are expected to start delivering BS6-compliant scooters to its customers from April 2020. Here’s the full price list along with the difference in price compared to their BS4 counterparts:

Models	New Prices (ex-showroom Pune)	Old Prices (ex-showroom Pune)	Difference
Vespa Club	Rs 91,492	Rs 73,288	Rs 18,204
Vespa LX 125	Rs 95,072	Rs 77,535	Rs 17,537
Vespa ZX 125 CBS	Rs 99,144	Rs 81,649	Rs 17,495
Vespa VXL 125 CBS	Rs 1,08,802	Rs 91,434	Rs 17,368
Vespa VXL 150 ABS	Rs 1,21,121	Rs 1,02,187	Rs 18,934
Vespa SXL 125 CBS	Rs 1,12,049	Rs 94,735	Rs 17,314
Vespa SXL 125 CBS (Matte)	Rs 1,14,033	Rs 95,808	Rs 17,100

Vespa SXL 150 ABS	Rs 1,25,107	Rs 1,06,238	Rs 18,869
Vespa VXL 125 Elegante	Rs 1,21,167	Rs 1,02,326	Rs 18,841
Vespa VXL 150 Elegante	Rs 1,31,374	Rs 1,12,709	Rs 18,665
Aprilia Storm	Rs 85,431	Rs 66,734	Rs 18,697
SR 125 CBS	Rs 93,496	Rs 72,484	Rs 21,012
SR 150 ABS	Rs 1,03,269	Rs 83,850	Rs 19,419
SR 150 Race Edition	Rs 1,12,463	Rs 93,097	Rs 19,366
SR 150 Carbon Edition	Rs 1,06,363	Rs 86,921	Rs 19,442

As you can see, the price difference between BS4 and BS6 versions of Vespa and Aprilia’s scooters is quite significant. This can be attributed to the addition of fuel injection in the BS6 scooters. Thanks to our sources, we know that the output figures of the 150cc scooters will remain unchanged. However, we’ll only get a clearer picture once we get our hands on the spec sheet.

The most expensive scooter in the list is the Vespa VXL 150 Elegante. With an ex-showroom (Pune) price of Rs 1.31 lakh, the on-road price of this scooter goes up to Rs 1.61 lakh! Granted, the baseline price of all scooters will go up once BS6 norms kick in. But with such stratospheric pricing, will Vespa maintain its desirability in a price-sensitive market like ours? Only time will tell.
