Meet the Suzuki GN160, the ultimate daily commuter blending vintage retro style with modern reliability for Philippine riders.
Unveiled at the Moto Heritage event, the new Suzuki GN160 is turning heads. Instead of just pushing another futuristic commuter bike, Suzuki decided to lean into nostalgia, updating a classic backbone layout that riders have trusted for decades.
Underneath that vintage aesthetic, though, is a proper modern setup. It runs on a fuel-injected 162cc engine that gives you just the right amount of punch for city overtaking without burning through your wallet on gas. During the launch speeches, Suzuki’s team talked a lot about trust, stability, and building something dependable for the everyday worker and rider—a nice reminder that some brands still focus on practical durability.
Once they let everyone take it out for a test ride, the engineering choices really showed. It has a low 760mm seat height that makes planting your feet at a stoplight effortless, and the upright riding posture saves your lower back during long hours in traffic. With front ABS keeping things safe when you suddenly grab the brakes, it handles tighter city lanes and corners surprisingly well.
At around PHP 125,000, this bike isn’t just meant to sit pretty outside a weekend coffee shop. It is built for the daily grind. Expect to see these nimble machines weaving through heavy traffic all over the Philippines very soon.
