Aprilia is reportedly set to launch the SXR 175 hp.e in India as early as next month, according to local media. The maxi scooter reuses the SR 175 hp.e's 174.7cc air-cooled single (13.26PS/14.14Nm) but adds 12-inch wheels, 20-25L underseat storage, and a Bluetooth-enabled TFT dash.
20-25L of underseat storage and I'm already grinning, man. Reusing the SR 175 hp.e engine in a proper maxi body just gets how riders actually use scooters on Asian roads. That said, sticking with 12-inch wheels while the Aerox 155 and ADV 160 run 14s bugs me a bit — I'll hold judgment on the handling until I've felt it.

"Likely" means it's not confirmed yet. Better to wait for the official announcement.
20-25L of storage is genuinely tempting. A full-face helmet should fit with room to spare.
A scooter with this much storage would be genuinely handy for daily commuting too.
Reusing the SR's engine as-is should help keep costs down, which is welcome.
Once you add a Bluetooth TFT and nav, the price is likely to climb accordingly.
12-inch wheels feel a bit shaky to me. Wonder how stable it'll actually be.
The Aerox runs 14-inch wheels, so on that spec alone this one looks a step behind.
