What's the story

Why does it matter?
The new two-wheelers expand the company's portfolio. The SR GT is Aprilia's first urban adventure scooter and will attract young audiences. It shares some design elements with the SXR scooter on sale in India.
Separately, the Tuono 660 Factory is a slightly enhanced model of the regular Tuono 660 while the RS 660 Limited Edition will appeal to Aprilia fans given its unique bodywork.
