Honda has announced its biggest product assault ever as it has showcased seven new models and three updated products today in India

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has today unveiled 10 new two-wheelers in one of its biggest product showcases in recent times. The lineup comprises seven new models and three updated products across multiple segments including roadsters, cruisers, adventure motorcycles, scooters, electric vehicles and flex-fuel models.

Among the highlights are the India debut of the ADV160 adventure scooter, the locally manufactured Rebel 300 and an expanded electric scooter lineup led by the QC3. Honda has also revealed the India-made CB500 as it will help consolidate its middleweight motorcycle portfolio. The roadster is powered by a 501 cc air- and oil-cooled engine producing around 28 hp and 43 Nm.

It is equipped with all-LED lighting, slipper and assist clutch, disc brakes at both ends and a dual-channel ABS system. Honda will offer the CB500 in three variants – Alloy, Spoke Tubeless and a Graphics edition – while the instrument console combines an analogue tachometer with a digital display. The ADV160 is another headline announcements as well.

Equipment on the ADV160 includes an 8.1-litre fuel tank, 27-litre under-seat storage, front and rear disc brakes, Honda Selectable Torque Control and a TFT instrument display.
