Mr. Minoru Kato- President and CEO, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd. said, “Six out of 10 two-wheelers sold in India belong to the 100-110cc segment. Within this segment, automatic scooters have witnessed tremendous growth and now count for almost half of the total size. With the highly increasing demand and varied customer needs, this segment is poised to sub-segmentation. As the leaders of scooter category, Honda has developed CLIQ which would address the needs of customers with an additional value of comfort and convenience.

The Honda CLIQ is targeted at utilitarian customers from rural India. It is manufactured at Honda’s second factory in Tapukara, Alwar District of Rajasthan. Initially, it will be sold in Rajasthan and will soon be made available for sale across India in a phased manner.

The company had given a glimpse of this scooter at the 2016 Auto Expo in shape of Honda NAVI Design Concepts. It is a more scooter looking and rugged version of the NAVI. Many of the components have been shared from other Honda scooters.

Powering the Honda CLIQ is the trusted 110cc Honda HET (Honda Eco Technology) engine which is coupled with a V-matic gearbox. This engine is BS-IV compliant and delivers 8 bhp of power and 8.94 Nm of torque. The scooter is claimed to have a top speed of 83 km/h. The Honda CLIQ is said to have one of the best power to weight ratio due to the low kerb weight of only 102 kgs.

The Honda CLIQ also comes equipped with Combi Brake System (CBS) with Equalizer technology. CBS will be mandatory on all two-wheelers up to 125cc engine capacity from April 1, 2018.

Ltd. said, “Focused at up-country customers with a progressive mindset, CLIQ is a perfect blend of Practicality, Versatility and value for money. Breaking the price barrier of automatic transmission on two wheels, only Honda as the market leader in automatic scooters with its unparalleled economies of scale & assured Trust, could challenge traditional preferences by bringing this kind of disruption in the 100-110cc segment.
