MUMBAI: Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) on Wednesday launched its new flagship scooter, Grazia, with a price tag of Rs 57,897.
With the new addition, the Indian scooter market leader has expanded its largest portfolio in the segment to six scooter models. With a modern, dynamic styling, the new Honda Grazia aims to fetch young, urban buyers of India who want a style statement within their ride.
Commenting on the launch, Yadvinder Singh-Guleria, senior vice president for Sales and Marketing at HMSI, said that Honda is the market leader in automatic scooters segment and it has raised the bar further with Grazia, which is Honda’s next big step of innovation in scooters.
It is the first scooter in India with a factory-fitted LED headlamp which promises a brighter light and better spread with a more focused and wider beam. At the heart of the Honda Grazia ticks the same 125cc HET (Honda Eco Technology) engine, which is already tested in the existing Activa 125.
The motor comes mated to a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and delivers 8.6PS of power and 10.5 Nm of torque. The segment-first features of the Honda Grazia include a fully digital instrument cluster which uses two LCD screens and looks quite interesting as well as informative.
It also gets a three-step Eco Speed Indicator which claims to show realistic mileage information. The scooter has some all-new convenience features including a 4-in-1 lock with seat opener switch that eliminates the need to take out the key to open the seat lock, a small glove box on the front and a mobile charger within.
Grazia comes in six colours — metallic blue, metallic orange, white, black, matte grey and red — and three variant options — standard, alloy and deluxe. The top-end deluxe trim is priced at Rs 62,269 (ex-showroom, Delhi) and gets most of the listed features as standard. (AGENCIES)
