Context
Why does this story matter?
The 2022 Suzuki Swish 125 offers great looks, decent performance, and lots of features. It should attract quite a few buyers in the Taiwanese market. However, the vehicle is unlikely to be introduced on our shores as it is too costly. However, if it does arrive here, the competition in the two-wheeler segment will be raised to a great extent.
Design
The scooter has a USB charging port and stepped-up seat
The 2022 Suzuki Swish 125 has a headlight-mounted front apron, a flat footboard, a stepped-up single-piece seat with a pillion grab rail, and arrowhead-shaped mirrors. The scooter packs an LED headlamp, a USB charging socket, a digital instrument cluster, and rides on blacked-out wheels. It is offered in three dual-tone color options, namely Black/Gold, Blue/Silver, and Silver/Red.

Safety
It gets telescopic front forks
To ensure the safety of the rider, the Suzuki Swish 125 is equipped with a disc brake on the front wheel and a drum brake on the rear one. It is unclear whether it also gets a CBS.
