Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has significantly expanded its future product lineup by unveiling 10 new two-wheelers for the Indian market. The portfolio includes seven completely new models and three updated motorcycles, covering multiple segments such as adventure scooters, cruisers, roadsters, dual-purpose motorcycles, and electric mobility. The company confirmed that these products will be introduced in India in a phased manner, although launch dates and pricing are yet to be announced.

Among the biggest highlights is the Honda ADV 160, an adventure-style scooter powered by a 160cc liquid-cooled engine. Designed to attract riders looking for a premium adventure scooter, it offers 27 litres of under-seat storage, an 8.1-litre fuel tank, and is claimed to be India’s first scooter compatible with E85 fuel.

Honda also showcased the CB500, a 501cc premium roadster aimed at enthusiasts seeking a powerful street motorcycle. The company introduced the Rebel 300, an entry-level cruiser featuring a 286cc liquid-cooled engine and a bobber-inspired design. It was joined by the larger Rebel 500, expanding Honda’s cruiser portfolio.

For off-road and adventure enthusiasts, Honda presented the XR300L and XR300 Rally. The XR300L is a lightweight dual-purpose motorcycle equipped with a 293.5cc air-cooled engine, while the XR300 Rally is built for long-distance adventure touring and mixed-terrain riding, making it a potential rival to motorcycles like the Hero XPulse.

The company also unveiled the Honda QC3 electric scooter, featuring a 3kWh battery, a claimed range of 151 kilometres, 32 litres of under-seat storage, and fast charging that takes the battery from 0 to 80 percent in just 2 hours and 40 minutes. It also comes equipped with a smart key and a 5-inch TFT display.

Honda said all these models will follow its "Made in India" strategy, reinforcing India's role as a key manufacturing and export hub for the brand.
