A few months ago IMB had reported that Honda Motorcycles & Scooter India (HMSI) is planning on launching a250cc bike in India and its codename was KYZ.
There are news going around the internet these days on Honda planning to launch their VTR250 but one should not be surprised if Honda launches a fresh model for the Indian market having the technology borrowed from any of their exisiting 250cc bike from the international market.
Honda VTR250 for India?
Honda VTR250 price
The 250cc segement is the least exploited segement in India till now, the only option available is the Kawasaki Ninja. The cost which is the most important factor for any premium bike in India will play a major role this time too but to surprise everyone the 250cc from Honda is expected to be priced under or around 1.5 lakh rupees.
Honda VTR 250 for India
The VTR250 is a V-Twin and the maximum power output can be anything around 30ps with maximum torque of around 22 Nm. Remember that Honda will consider re-tuning the bike so that the element of fuel economy isn’t completely destroyed.
Another thing to look out for is if this bike from Honda would be a naked or a fully faired bike. I would love to see a fully faired 250cc bike instead of a naked bike.
The launch date for tis bike could be around Diwali as Honda would want to take full advantage of the festive season mood in India. If this is the case then we dont have to wait for long.
