Burgman electric spy pics have surfaced revealing Suzuki’s plans for our market. The latest pics have come from Pune…
Few months back, Devashish Handa, the Marketing & Sales Head of Suzuki India, said that the company is evaluating the electric 2-wheeler market in India and will introduce them ‘once the market is ready‘. You can read read more about it here. Last month the company patented the Burgman electric.
It looks like – Suzuki now considers it the right time to get into the electric bandwagon as it has been caught testing test mules of Burgman Street but with an electric motor. After various earlier spottings (also pictured on this page), new set of spy pics have come in from Pune. Does that mean the scoot is under final ARAI tests?
As you can see, apart from those red test number plates, the most prominent bit to note is the absence of the exhaust.
The test mules are running on a different white color which has blue tinges (instead of brownish on the production ICE Burgmans).
Though we get to understand that Suzuki is definitely developing electric tech for our market but what is interesting is this question – will it come on the body of the Burgman? Or will Suzuki create a new shell for its first electric scooter?

While we await answers of a lot of questions that have suddenly cropped up with this revelation, what is certain is that Suzuki is getting ready to join the movement that has been created by Ather, Bajaj, TVS and many other smaller start-ups. By the way country’s biggest manufacturer, Hero is also getting ready to go electric!
