2018 Honda PCX125 scooter unveiled

-Cosmetic and technological upgrades

-Now produces 12.5bhp; an increase of 0.4bhp

-Unlikely to arrive in India anytime soon.

Honda has unveiled the 2018 version of the PCX125 maxi-scooter. 

Visually, the major changes include the scooter’s LED headlights, LED tail light and turn lights which are now thinner, lending the scooter a razor-sharp look. The airbox inlet and engine cover are now integrated into a single unit. Honda has equipped the PCX125 with chrome elements around the handlebars and bar ends for a premium feel.

The front apron houses a cubbyhole large enough to hold a water bottle and a 12V AC adapter. The fuel-lid and seat can be accessed by one-touch switches and the ignition key has a shutter, as with all Honda scooters. The PCX125 sports an LCD instrument cluster that displays all basic information along with average fuel consumption and idling stop indicator.

It now gets eight-spoke alloy wheels as compared to the five-spoke wheels on the previous model. The scooter also sports larger 100/80 front and 120/70 section rear tyres against the 90/90 and 100/90 section front and rear tyres of the 2017 model. Honda has now increased the underseat storage by 1 litre; now 28 litres, without increasing the width of the scooter.

Mechanically, the scooter gets a 0.4bhp increase in power. The 125cc engine now produces 12.05bhp and 11.8Nm of torque. The scooter gets a single-channel ABS unit with a 220mm disc in the front and a 130mm rear drum brake. The PCX125 is also available with accessories like a 35-litre top box carrier, heated grips and a larger windshield.

While the scooter will be available in global markets soon, it is unlikely to arrive on Indian shores anytime in the near future. However, Honda does offer a similar 125cc premium scooter in the form of the Grazia in the country. It also gets LED lighting, digital instrumentation and the look of a maxi-scooter.
