Honda Forza 300 Scooter in India

[Nairrk]

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has delivered the first lot of four Honda Forza 300 scooters, becoming the first company in the country to enter the mid-size premium scooter segment. Now, we do not have the price of the scooter yet because the models were special order units that were pre-booked by a few customers and these are BS4 models. However, Honda says that the Forza 300 (customer unit), which was on display at the Honda BigWing showroom, has garnered great response from customers, and the company has decided to officially launch the scooter in Financial Year 2021.

The Honda Forza 300 is the first Maxi Scooter offering from the Japanese two-wheeler manufacturer in India and it's powered by a 279cc, liquid-cooled engine. The fuel-injected SOHC motor is a four-valve four-stroke unit that is tuned to churn out 24.8 bhp at 7000 rpm and 27.2 Nm at 5,750 rpm. The Forza 300 comes with CVT automatic transmission with an automatic centrifugal clutch and a V-Belt. The Forza 300 also comes with Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) which helps in regaining rear-wheel traction by detecting the difference between the front and rear wheel speeds, calculating the slip ratio and further controlling engine torque via the fuel injection.

Honda has unveiled the 2020 model of the Forza 300 maxi scooter in the international markets, and the scooter is expected to make its way to the Indian market by early 2021. The updated scooter comes with a red-stitched leather seat, red rim tape and a grey top-box with 45 litres of storage capacity.

Apart from the aforementioned changes, the Forza 300 maxi scooter remains the same. It comes with features like an adjustable screen, full-LED lighting, smart key and a semi-digital instrument cluster. The Forza 300 is also the first Honda scooter to come with Honda’s Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) feature, which helps in regaining rear-wheel traction by detecting the difference between the speed of the front and the rear wheel.

Honda is yet to confirm details about the Indian-spec Forza 300, including its price and launch date. We expect the scooter to be launched around early 2021, and be priced at about Rs 2.5 – 3 lakh (ex-showroom). If brought to the Indian market next year, the Forza 300 will have no direct rival in the country, and the maxi scooter will truly be one of its kind.
