BREAKING: Honda Forza 350 Could Debut Next Month

Honda could be gearing up to launch the Forza 350 in India. The Japanese bikemaker has sent a ‘Block Your Date’ on August 8 2022. 

Last year, Honda updated the scooter in foreign markets, giving it a twin-pod analogue instrument console with a digital inset positioned in between. The console has Bluetooth connectivity and gives you access to smart features like the Honda Smartphone Voice Control System (HSVCS). With this, you can answer calls and messages, use navigation, and listen to music on the go.

The Thailand-spec Forza 350 has a 329.6cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine that makes 29.2PS and 31Nm. If the scooter comes to our shores in the same state of tune, it would be second only to the BMW C 400 GT, in terms of performance.

The hardware comprises a telescopic  fork, twin  shock absorbers, disc brakes on both ends, with  15-inch front and 14-inch rear alloy wheels. It gets chunky 120-section front and 140-section rear tubeless tyres. 

On the features front, you get a tall, electronically-adjustable windscreen, an underseat storage big enough to accommodate two helmets, all-LED lighting, keyless ignition, and a USB charger integrated into the apron-mounted glove box. The scooter gets a traction control system and dual-channel ABS as standard. 

We expect it to carry a price tag of around Rs 3.7 lakh (ex-showroom) and is likely to come to our shores as a Completely Knocked Down (CKD) unit. This would make the Japanese maxi-scooter considerably cheaper than the BMW C 400 GT which retails at an exorbitant price tag of Rs 10.40 lakh (ex-showroom)  Stay tuned to ZigWheels for more updates on the scooter!
