PT Astra Honda Motor has officially unveiled the 2022 Honda ADV 160.

  • gained bigger 160cc displacement that puts out 16hp and 14.7Nm.
  • features ABS and Honda Selectable Torque Control (traction control) as standard.

The most significant upgrade done to the 2022 compact ‘adventure’ scooter is a bigger 156.9cc 4-valve with eSP engine that now makes 16hp and 14.7Nm replacing the outgoing 149.3cc single-cylinder platform.

Other significant changes include the addition of Honda Selectable Torque Control (traction control), which helps to improve rider’s handling while ABS remains standard. However, these two features are only available for the ABS variant, while the base model gets CBS (combine braking system).

According to reports in Indonesia, the ABS variant is priced at INR39.25mil (RM11.5k), while the standard unit is available for INR36mil (RM10.6k).

Although Honda claimed the 2022 ADV 160 gets a bolder look, the overall bodywork remains the same but with slight changes made to the dashboard.

The signal and high beam indicator, which previously appeared on a separate display, are now integrated with the digital instrument cluster.

The 2022 ADV 160 are available in both Dynamic Red and Dynamic Black for the CBS variant, while the top of the range ABS variant gets Tough Matte Red, Tough Matte Black and Tough Matte White colourway.

The latest teaser from PT Astra Honda Motor has confirmed that a new Honda ADV 160 is set to roll out in Indonesia.

  • The new ADV 160 will get a bigger powertrain than the previous generation.
  • The ADV 160 will feature revised bodywork and features.

Rumours about a new generation ADV 160 have been around since the introduction of the PCX 160, Vario 160 and the recently launched Air Blade 160.

 However, the latest teaser by Honda distributor in Indonesia, PT Astra Honda Motor, via its official Instagram account has confirmed that the ADV 160 is on its way.

While the teaser was faintly visible, the motorcycle silhouette is similar to the ADV 150 but with a slight change in the bodywork.

Nevertheless, the new ADV 160 will feature the same 156.9cc eSP+ engine found in the PCX 160 that makes 15hp @ 8,500rpm and 13.8Nm @ 7,000rpm, a bump from the previous 14.5hp and 13.9Nm.

Meanwhile, the upcoming ADV 160 will also feature several upgrades in terms of design and mechanics.

Astra Honda Motor telah pun melancarkan Vario 160 untuk pasaran Indonesia.

Bagi tahun 2022, Vario telah dikemas kini dengan rekaan baharu serta enjin bersesaran 160cc berbanding 150cc sebelum ini.

Menariknya, Vario 160 juga dilengkapi beberapa ciri baharu antaranya daytime running light (DRL), ciri sama yang sebelum ini terdapat pada ADV 150. Kehadirann lampu DRL juga menyaksikan Honda melaksanakan kemas kini di bahagian depan yang tampak lebih agresif dan sporty.

Malah, keseluruhan rupa Vario 160 ini juga tampak lebih lebar berbanding generasi 150.

Bagaimanapun, naik taraf terbesar adalah bahagian enjin, dengan Vario 160 2022 ini didatangkan enjin 160cc yang menjana 15.2hp pada 8,500rpm dan 13.8Nm pada 7,000rpm berbanding 13hp dan 12.9Nm sebelum ini.

Selain itu, Honda Vario 160 juga didatangkan dengan fungsi ABS bagi varian tertinggi manakala ciri Combine Braking System (CBS) masih lagi dikekalkan bagi varian standard.

Model terbaru ini juga menyaksikan terdapatnya slot pengecas USB berbanding Vario 150 sebelum ini.

Menurut laporan media Indonesia, Honda Vario 160 ini ditawarkan pada harga IDR28.5 juta (RM8,300) bagi versi ABS.

Meskipun pasaran motosikal dunia terkesan susulan pandemik Covid-19 namun penurunan tersebut berjalan secara perlahan terutamanya bagi pengeluar motosikal Jepun, Honda.

Sebelum ini, India muncul sebagai pasaran terbesar Honda namun dipintas Indonesia bagi tahun 2020.

Berdasarkan Tahun Kewangan (FY) 2020, Indonesia merekodkan penjualan 4.85 juta unit memintas India dengan 4.7 juta unit.

Meskipun kedua-dua angka tersebut merupakan penurunan daripada FY2019 namun penjualan Honda di Indonesia tetap melebihi pasaran India sekitar 150,000 unit.

Antara faktor penurunan penjualan di India melibatkan pengenalan kepada piawaian emisi BS-6 yang telah memberi kesan kepada kenaikan harga dan kos insurans di samping pandemik Covid-19 yang memberi impak terhadap kuasa pembeli.

Bagaimanapun, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI), YS Guleria kekal optimis dengan penjualan jenama itu di India dengan lebih 10,000 unit telah pun terjual seminggu selepas sekatan dibuka. – Money Control
