Suzuki Motorcycle India is going to launch its new Suzuki Intruder 150 in the country on 7 November. The company already has two Intruders in their product line-up for India - M1800R and 2016 M1800R BOSS Edition.
Though the upcoming Suzuki Intruder 150 is directly going to compete with Bajaj Avenger 150, yet a comparison is also required between the to be launched product and the already existing one – Suzuki Intruder M1800R.

This is going to be the Suzuki Motorcycle India’s first low-capacity cruiser bike, and is likely to borrow some of the design cues from the existing Intruder M1800R.
Post the leaked images of the bike, which started circulating around the web, now leaked images of the product’s brochure has also come.
As per the leaked brochure images, it is going to have the same engine as the Suzuki Gixxer, which is 154.9cc air-cooled, single cylinder, 4 stroke with 5-speed gearbox. The engine is going to churn out 14bhp of maximum output at 4000RPM, and 14Nm of maximum torque at 6000RPM.
Measurement wise, Suzuki Intruder 150 is going to have 2130mm of length, 805mm of width and 1095mm of height. The bike will have 1405mm and 170mm of wheelbase and ground clearance, respectively.
What is going to make a difference is it will have ABS technology, and most probably will be priced within a range of Rs 90,000 – Rs 1 lakh.
