Aprilia’s SR GT 400 is a bold new entry into the mid-size scooter segment, combining the rugged spirit of adventure motorcycles with the practicality of urban commuting. With 36 horsepower, long-travel suspension, and premium tech, it’s redefining what a scooter can be.
In a world where scooters are often seen as mere city runabouts, Aprilia has flipped the script with the SR GT 400, a crossover scooter that dares to go beyond the pavement. Unveiled at EICMA 2025, this machine is designed for riders who want the freedom to explore without sacrificing daily usability. It’s not just a scooter—it’s a statement of versatility, performance, and Italian flair.
Design: Sportbike DNA Meets Scooter Practicality
The SR GT 400 draws heavily from Aprilia’s sportbike lineage. Its athletic profile, sharp body panels, and triple-lamp LED headlight give it a commanding presence. The tall adjustable windscreen, gold-finished USD forks, and hand guards hint at its adventure-ready intentions, while the step-up seat and upswept exhaust add to its aggressive stance.
Available in Boulder Grey, Rugged Black, and Dusty Grey, the SR GT 400 also offers a Rally Replica colorway inspired by the Tuareg 660, further cementing its off-road credibility.
Engine and Performance
At the heart of the SR GT 400 is a 400cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, delivering 36 horsepower—a figure that puts it well above most scooters in its class. This power allows the SR GT 400 to handle highway speeds, steep inclines, and light trail riding with ease.
The engine is tuned for responsive acceleration, making it ideal for both urban traffic and weekend getaways. Whether you’re darting through city streets or cruising open roads, the SR GT 400 offers a ride that’s both thrilling and refined.
Suspension and Handling
One of the standout features of the SR GT 400 is its long-travel suspension, which includes upside-down forks with a double yoke and a 190mm ground clearance. This setup ensures stability and comfort across uneven terrain, giving riders the confidence to tackle gravel paths, potholes, and speed bumps without flinching.
The scooter rides on 16-inch front and 14-inch rear wheels, providing a balanced mix of agility and control. Combined with its wide handlebars and upright riding posture, the SR GT 400 feels more like a lightweight adventure bike than a traditional scooter.
Tech and Connectivity
Aprilia hasn’t skimped on technology. The SR GT 400 features a 5-inch TFT display that offers clear visibility of speed, navigation, and ride stats. It also supports the Aprilia MIA system, allowing riders to connect their smartphones for music control, call management, and turn-by-turn navigation.
Other premium touches include full LED lighting, a keyless ignition system, and USB charging ports, making the SR GT 400 as smart as it is stylish.
Comfort and Utility
Despite its sporty nature, the SR GT 400 is built for comfort. The step-up seat offers ample cushioning for both rider and pillion, while the ergonomic footrests and wide handlebars reduce fatigue on longer rides. There’s also under-seat storage large enough for a helmet or small backpack, making it practical for daily errands.
Aprilia also offers a range of accessories, including top boxes, crash guards, and touring windshields, allowing riders to customize the scooter to their lifestyle.
Who Is It For?
The SR GT 400 is perfect for urban riders who crave adventure, commuters who want more power, and motorcycle enthusiasts looking for a second ride that’s easy to handle but still fun. It’s a scooter that doesn’t compromise—it offers the best of both worlds.
Whether you’re navigating traffic in Mumbai or exploring hillside roads in Himachal, the SR GT 400 adapts to your environment with ease and elegance.
The Aprilia SR GT 400 is more than just a new scooter—it’s a new category. By blending the performance of a motorcycle with the practicality of a scooter, Aprilia has created a machine that’s ready for anything. It’s a crossover in the truest sense, and it’s poised to change how we think about two-wheeled mobility.
