With respect to the powertrain, the 2019 Suzuki Gixxer 155 will not be dramatically different from the current version. The bike will continue to employ the 154.7 cc single-cylinder, air-cooled, fuel-injected engine that develops 13.9 bhp and 14 Nm of peak torque. The motor is paired with a 5-speed transmission. In addition, the bike will continue to ride on telescopic forks up front and a monoshock unit at the rear. Braking power will come from disc brakes at either end with single-channel ABS offered as standard.

The 2019 Suzuki Gixxer 155 is expected to see a marginal price hike over the outgoing model and we expect prices to start around Rs. 92,000 (ex-showroom), which won't be dramatically more expensive while also undercutting its rivals - the Yamaha FZ V3.0, TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Bajaj Pulsar 160NS, Honda CB Hornet 160R and the likes. The more exciting offering - Suzuki Gixxer 250 is expected to be priced around Rs. 1.5 lakh (ex-showroom), which will keep the model competitive against its rivals in the 250-300 cc naked segment.
