In short

The E Access is Suzuki's first electric scooter, built on the familiar Access 125 body with a 4.1kW motor and a 3.07kWh battery. Priced at ₹1,90,761, it manages a real-world range of just 83-95km on a 6.42-hour full charge, well short of rivals like the Ather 450X, which cost similarly but claim well over 150km of range.

Price and variants

Ex-showroom Delhi. On-road estimate for Delhi; other cities on the price page.

There is only one E Access to buy, priced at ₹1,90,761 ex-showroom in Delhi. The only decisions left are colour and whether to finance it.

That makes it priced 18th lowest among the 23 electric scooters we have reviewed. Its closest price rivals are the 450 Apex (₹5,429 more) and the Roadster Pro (₹9,238 more).

On the road in Delhi, budget about ₹1.99 Lakh for the base variant once registration and five-year insurance are added (Delhi waives road tax on electric two-wheelers). Dealers often quote higher by bundling accessories, extended warranty and handling charges; all three are negotiable.

Range and charging

Expect 83–95 km from the E Access in everyday use against a certified IDC range of 95 km. The 6% gap is smaller than most rivals manage.

Among the 23 electric scooters we have reviewed it ranks 21th for range, 52 km below the group average of 147 km.

Motor and ride

The E Access's 4.1 kW motor is the 15rd most powerful among the 21 electric scooters here and takes it to a top speed of 71 km/h, which limits it to city use.

A full charge from a home socket takes about 6.42 hours, and it supports fast charging for a quicker top-up on the road. The battery is fixed, so you need a plug where the scooter parks.

Chassis hardware includes a combi-brake system, with a disc up front and drum at the rear.

Seat height is a low 765 mm, so riders around 5'2" and above can plant both feet at a stop.

Our review

Riding impressions and the buying advice a spec sheet cannot give.

Verdict

The E Access marks Suzuki's entry into electric two-wheelers, wrapping a familiar Access-like body around a 4.1kW motor and a 3.07kWh battery. At ₹1,90,761 it is priced in the same bracket as established electric scooters from Ather and Ola, but its 95km claimed range asks buyers to accept a genuine compromise for the Suzuki badge and its long service history.

Riding it every day

The 15Nm of instant torque makes it feel brisk off the line in city traffic, and the low 765mm seat height combined with a 122kg kerb weight makes it easy to manage at signals and in parking. The colour TFT console, cruise control and ride modes are unusual at this price and genuinely useful, and the companion app with over-the-air updates means the scooter can improve over time rather than staying static. A 71kmph top speed is enough for city and arterial roads but leaves little margin on faster stretches.

What to know before buying

Real-world range typically runs 83-95km, noticeably behind rivals like the Ather 450X or Yamaha EC 06, both of which are priced similarly but claim well over 150km. Charging a full battery takes about 6.42 hours on a home socket, so daily riders without workplace charging need to plan around an overnight cycle. The rear brake is also still a drum, unusual for an electric scooter positioned as premium.

Who should buy it

The E Access suits riders with short, predictable daily commutes and home charging access who value Suzuki's dealer network and battery warranty over outright range. Buyers who ride longer distances or want maximum range per rupee would typically get more from the Ather 450X or Ola Roadster X Plus.

Features and colours

  • Combi-brake (CBS)
  • Front disc brake
  • Tubeless tyres
  • Alloy wheels
  • Side-stand engine cut-off
  • Hazard lamps
  • LED headlamp
  • LED daytime running lamp
  • LED tail lamp
  • Colour TFT console
  • +12 more

On safety kit the E Access has combi-brake (cbs), front disc brake, tubeless tyres, side-stand engine cut-off and hazard lamps. There is no ABS, which is legal at this engine size but worth knowing before a wet-weather ride.

Against 450 Apex, EC 06 or 450X, it gets side-stand engine cut-off, hazard lamps, usb charging port and keyless start that most rivals skip.

What it lacks: rear disc brake, regenerative braking and hill hold, which rivals at this price offer. The safety items in that list matter more than the console.

It is offered in 4 colours: Metallic Mat Stellar Blue / Metallic Mat Fibroin Gray, Pearl Jade Green and Metallic Mat Fibroin Gray, Pearl Grace White and Metallic Mat Fibroin Gray and Metallic Mat Black and Metallic Mat Bordeaux Red. Colour availability varies by variant and dealer stock.

Warranty, service and ownership

Standard warranty is 3 years, unlimited km. The battery is covered separately for 3 years or 50,000 km; read the degradation clause, since most policies only replace a pack that drops below 70% capacity.

Service reach is the weak point: Suzuki has about 1,200 dealer and workshop touchpoints across the country. Confirm there is one within reach before you sign.

The E Access launched in 2026, so long-term reliability and resale data are still thin. That is not a mark against it, just a reason to prefer the standard warranty and keep service records.

What is the EMI for the E Access?
With 10% down, a 36-month loan at 9.5% on the base variant comes to about ₹6,050 a month. A shorter tenure raises the EMI but cuts total interest; see the EMI calculator on the price page.

About 6.42 hours for a full charge from a home socket, with fast charging available for quicker top-ups.
Is the E Access suitable for short riders?

E Access or 450 Apex: which is better?
The 450 Apex is ₹5,429 more expensive to start and more efficient at 165 km against 95 km. Pick the E Access for short daily commutes, the 450 Apex for riders wanting quickest ather scooter. Our side-by-side comparison covers every spec.

Is 95km of range enough for a daily commute on the E Access?
For most short city commutes under 40-45km round trip it should be fine with a comfortable buffer, but riders with longer daily distances will need to charge more than once a week and plan around the 6.42-hour full charge time.
Can the E Access be fast-charged like other electric scooters?
Suzuki lists fast charging as a feature, though the brief does not specify a fast-charge time, so riders should confirm the actual reduced charge duration with a dealer before assuming it matches rivals.
