Suzuki Motorcycle India has launched a new dual-tone colour for the V-Strom SX adventure bike. The Glass Sparkle Black and Metallic Matte Fibroin Gray variant joins the palette as the model records a 902% year-on-year sales surge in August 2026.
Suzuki Motorcycle India has introduced a new Glass Sparkle Black and Metallic Matte Fibroin Gray dual-tone colour option for the V-Strom SX. The motorcycle's price remains Rs 2,02,118 (ex-showroom, Delhi). This launch coincides with a dramatic sales increase for the model, with 1,012 units sold in August 2026 compared to just 101 in the same month last year.
Colour joins existing palette
The new dual-tone shade adds to three existing colour options. These are Champion Yellow No. 2 with Glass Sparkle Black, Pearl Glacier White with Metallic Matte Stellar Blue, and a standalone Glass Sparkle Black variant. The updated dual-tone shade includes revised body graphics. Deepak Mutreja, Vice President, Sales & Marketing at Suzuki Motorcycle India, said the new colour offers customers greater choice to express their individual style while complementing the motorcycle’s adventure-touring character.
