Overview

Introducing the 2018 Honda PCX 125, a stylish and versatile scooter that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of urban commuting. Priced at an attractive US$ 3,599, this model strikes an excellent balance between practicality and performance, making it an ideal choice for city dwellers and first-time riders alike. The PCX 125 stands out in the crowded scooter market with its modern design, comfortable seating, and a host of features that cater to both novice and experienced riders. Whether you're zipping through traffic or taking a leisurely weekend ride, the PCX 125 brings a blend of agility and sophistication to every journey. At the heart of the PCX 125 is a robust 125cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine that delivers a commendable 11.53 horsepower at 8,500 RPM and a torque of 12 Nm at 5,000 RPM. This potent powertrain ensures a smooth and responsive ride, making navigating busy streets effortless. The liquid-cooled engine utilizes Honda's PGM-FI fuel injection system, which not only enhances fuel efficiency—achieving an impressive 1.76 liters per 100 km (133.65 mpg)—but also ensures consistent performance across varying conditions. Coupled with an automatic transmission and centrifugal clutch, the PCX 125 offers a user-friendly experience, allowing riders to focus on the road ahead while effortlessly managing their speed. The PCX 125 is packed with features that elevate its riding experience to new heights. Its tubular steel underbone frame provides stability and strength, while the 31mm telescopic front suspension and twin aluminum swingarm at the rear deliver a comfortable ride even on bumpy city roads. The scooter's hydraulic front disc brake combined with a rear drum brake offers reliable stopping power, enhancing rider confidence. With a seat height of just 760 mm, it's accessible for riders of all sizes, and the generous 8-liter fuel tank ensures fewer stops for refueling. Available in striking color options such as Dark Pearl Blue and Pearl White, the PCX 125 also features electric starting for a hassle-free ignition experience. **

Pros
