Aprilia SR GT 200 makes PH debut at 2022 IRBF

The Aprilia SR GT 200 made its Philippine debut at the recently held Inside Racing Bike Festival. The Italian city-scoot was brought to local shores thanks to Moto Italia Philippines, which showcased the 174cc urban motorbike at the first-ever Piaggio Motoplex exhibit at the 14th IRBF at World Trade Center in Pasay.

“In line with the growing Vespa sales, our network has continuously been growing. We right now have 20 dealers, and many more dealers to come this year. And to excite you even further, Moto Italia is proud to announce that we will be expanding the Piaggio group range of products by introducing the new scooter under the Aprilia brand. This is to enter the new segment but also to offer our dealers the opportunity to expand with us. The SR GT 200 is a vehicle to get around with energy and fun, a scooter that is unstoppable during city commute but also ready to face the sporty adventures ahead,” said Moto Italia President Willy Tee Ten.

He added, “For everyone to experience this new, exciting scooter, all our dealers will have demo units for you to test drive.”

The Philippine-spec Aprilia SR GT 200 packs a 174cc, single-cylinder, four-stroke, i-get engine mated to a CVT. This makes the SR GT 200 a fast and nimble scooter to drive in the city, and one that can take on obstacles should one run out of roads to ride on.

Thanks to all-surface tires, equipped as standard, this Aprilia scoot is ready for any type of challenge. Whether navigating urban traffic or off-road tracks, one will definitely be confident to conquer any adventure waiting in every corner.

Stopping power comes from 260mm hydraulic wavy disc brakes at the front and 220mm wavy disc brakes at the rear. This setup promises better deceleration with more efficient, smoother, and improved braking regardless of road surface conditions.

The Aprilia SR GT 200 is built on a double cradle chassis in high-resistance steel tubing. It’s supported by a hydraulic telescopic fork at the front and two hydraulic shock absorbers (with adjustable preload) at the rear. Together with the all-surface tires, 174cc engine, and disc brakes at the front and back, the Aprilia SR GT 200 promises a smooth ride.

Other notable features of the Aprilia SR GT 200 include full LED lighting, an endurance bike-inspired protective windshield, a USB port, and an advanced LCD dashboard. Customers opting to get the Aprilia MIA optional add-on can connect their phone via Bluetooth to the handlebar controls.

The new Aprilia SR GT 200 is currently offered in two versions: the Aprilia SR GT 200 and Aprilia SR GT Sport 200. They are priced at P219,000 and P227,000 respectively.
