The peak power output of the motor stands at 6kW and the claimed top speed is 80kmph. 

The scooter has a telescopic fork and twin shock absorbers suspension setup. Stopping the scooter is a 190mm front disc brake and a 110mm rear disc brake. It is packed with features as well as the scooter’s base variant has a 5-inch TFT instrument console. The Honda RoadSync Duo variant has a 7-inch TFT instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity for navigation, call and SMS alerts and music controls.
