The 2019 Suzuki Gixxer 155 has been launched in India at a price of Rs. 100,212 (ex-showroom, Delhi). The motorcycle gets a completely revamped design, making it look even more aggressive than before. The LED headlamp is a brand new unit and the tank shrouds are new too, giving the motorcycle a butch appeal when seen in profile. The tail section is new and is the same as the one on the Gixxer SF, which was recently launched. The tail lamp is LED too and the motorcycle now features a step-seat instead of the longish unit which was present in the outgoing model. The white backlit instrument console is also new and replaces the orange backlit unit in the previous model. The 2019 Suzuki Gixxer is about Rs. 12,000 more expensive than the outgoing model.

While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen.
