Suzuki launches the 2021 Burgman 400 scooter

Suzuki has unveiled an updated version of its Burgman 400 scooter, which is due to arrive at dealers in the summer.

Many of the changes were necessary to ensure compliance with Euro 5 emissions standards. Consequently, the 400 cc engine gains a new twin-plug cylinder head, modified fuel injectors, revised ignition timing, altered cam profiles and a second catalytic converter.

Peak output and torque are now rated at 29.2 PS (28.8 bhp / 21.5 kW) and 35.2 Nm (25.9 lb-ft) respectively, while 70.6 mpg (4.0 l/100km) is possible according to the WMTC measure.

Other enhancements include the addition of traction control and Suzuki’s Easy Start System. The instruments have been refreshed, too.

Customers will have a choice of Metallic Matt Black, Solid Iron Grey or Metallic Matt Sword Silver paintwork. All three options come with contrasting blue wheels.

Despite a fairly hefty kerb mass of 218 kg (480 lb), a low 755 mm (29.7”) seat height and narrowed footboards should mean that most riders can handle the 2021 Burgman 400 easily enough.

UK prices have yet to be announced.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

The Alfa Romeo MiTo supermini is now available with the innovative two-cylinder TwinAir petrol engine. Although its capacity is only 875 cc, a turbocharger and the MultiAir electro-hydraulic valve control system mean it produces a respectable 83 bhp (62 kW / 85 PS) and 145 Nm (103 lb/ft) of torque. Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
