At Honda, we welcome a bold move that has groomed the scooter segment. A divisive subject since it is traditional to contrast it with that of motorcycles, two worlds of the universe of two motorized wheels. But the ADV is special, a sort of hybrid which allows escapades outside the city since it has the ability to tackle all-road terrain. Its commercial success is proven. To the point that his family will grow…
La Honda X ADV 750 finished 2018 as the seventh best-selling motorized two-wheeler in Europe. Building on this success, the ADV scooter range is expected to grow further with rumors that the Japanese manufacturer is working on two other mid-sized variants of its model, including one for Europe.
Range ADV Adventure was launched last year with the variation ADV 750, who was praised for her all-terrain qualities and her own style. This positive reception subsequently led to the launch of the Honda ADV 150, only in the Indonesian market, in July, which maintains an aesthetic relationship with its big brother, but in a more city-oriented package.
Range ADV should further develop with the arrival of 250 and 300 versions. The first will satisfy the Asian markets, and will probably be visible at the Tokyo Motor Show in October, before the second evolution arrives at EICMA in Milan for us Europeans.
Although the Honda ADV 300 can maintain a closer relationship with the ADV 150 to stick to city capabilities, we can expect the same streamlined and muscular styling, with an attractive and well-executed attempt to introduce sporty design traits to the walk. LED lighting and digital displays will give the ADV 300 a different feel than most machines in the same segment.
Using the venerable 279cc liquid-cooled four-valve engine, the ADV 3 is expected to generate 300 PS at 25,1 rpm and 7 Nm at 000 rpm. In addition, Honda Indonesia is expected to increase its production to meet demand for the Honda ADV 27,2. Proof of a real market expectation for this atypical scooter.
