Will Honda Forza 350 Maxi-Scooter Launch in India?

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has applied for a design patent for the Forza 350 maxi-scooter in India, but there is no official confirmation regarding its launch in the country. The company had previously imported a few units of the scooter and displayed them at select dealerships in 2020.

The Forza 350 is powered by a 329cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine that delivers 20.2PS of maximum power and 31.5Nm of torque. 

The scooter features telescopic front forks and twin rear shock absorbers for suspension, along with a 256mm front and 240mm rear disc brakes and dual-channel ABS and traction control. The scooter has 15-inch front and 14-inch rear alloy wheels fitted with tubeless tyres measuring 120mm and 140mm, respectively.

The Forza 350 has been available in two versions - Standard and Roadsync - in international markets. The Roadsync version comes equipped with Honda's Roadsync technology, which enables access to the Honda Smartphone Voice Control System.

The Forza 350 maxi scooter is equipped with various features such as LED lighting, an electrically adjustable windscreen, and a digital display with MID. Other features include a USB charging socket, a stepped seat, function keys, and under seat storage space.

Additionally, the manufacturer, HMSI, is set to launch a new 100cc bike on March 15, 2023, which is expected to deliver impressive mileage and will compete with the Hero Splendor Plus. The details of the upcoming model are yet to be revealed.
