The Story in Brief
Anti-lock braking system (ABS) is no longer limited to premium two-wheelers, with scooters from Rs 85,000 to Rs 1.5 lakh now offering this safety feature across India in 2026. ABS reduces wheel lock-up during sudden braking on wet or crowded roads, cutting the risk of skidding in everyday traffic. Five ABS-equipped scooters worth considering this year include the Suzuki Access 125, TVS Ntorq 150, Hero Xoom 160, Yamaha Aerox 155, and VLF Mobster 135.
The Suzuki Access 125 ABS variants start at Rs 96,230 and run a 124cc air-cooled engine. TVS Ntorq 150 is priced from Rs 1.11 lakh with a 149.7cc engine. Hero Xoom 160 costs around Rs 1.43 lakh with a 156cc liquid-cooled mill. Yamaha Aerox 155 is priced at about Rs 1.45 lakh with a sporty 155cc engine. VLF Mobster 135, despite its name, runs a 125cc liquid-cooled engine and stands out for offering dual-channel ABS at around Rs 1.37 lakh. Real-world mileage varies between 40-45kmpl depending on riding style.
The Indian Opinion
The buzz about ABS scooters being unaffordable is fading fast. With five options spanning Rs 85,000 to Rs 1.5 lakh, Indian buyers no longer need to stretch budgets for safety. The Suzuki Access 125 starts at Rs 96,230, while the sporty Yamaha Aerox 155 tops the list. Yet real-world mileage claims often fall short, and single-channel ABS remains common. The real question: will commuters shift from drum brakes to ABS, or is price still king?
