Published on October 17, 2023 EST READ TIME: 3 MIN
After the past success of the Honda PCX the popular two-wheeler is back with a bang offering up a new and improved 2023 version with a striking new Matte Brown Metallic finish, ABS (Anti-lock Breaking System), the famed HSTC (Honda Selectable Torque Control) technology, and a sleek look.
Once again, Honda has built on its past success, this time in both ABS and non-ABS variants of the PCX, and upped the ante for 2023.
Here's what you can look forward to in the new and improved 2023 version of the PCX.
Design
The new Honda PCX boasts a design that seamlessly blends modern aesthetics with functional efficiency. Apart from being eye-catching and attractive, the matte brown metallic finish exterior is sturdy as ever with clean lines and well-defined edges giving the scooter a contemporary and sophisticated look.
The LED lighting system, including the distinctive "X" shaped taillight, not only adds to the visual appeal but also enhances visibility for added safety. The three-dimensional bezel structure around the LCD is a testament to the attention to detail in the design, providing a sharp and modern aesthetic.
Engine
In 2021, the PCX received a significant engine upgrade, boosting its displacement to an impressive 157cc. Fast forward to 2023, and this powerhouse maintains its dominance. The 157cc single-cylinder engine, built specifically for freeway performance, seamlessly integrates with its fully automatic transmission system. This potent combination ensures a smooth and powerful ride, making it a perfect choice for both commuting in city traffic as well as for longer rides along freeways. What's more, the PCX is also eco-friendly with its fuel-efficient 28mm fuel injector.
Tips for enhancing fuel efficiency
Hardware
The new version of the PCX is designed for stability, manoeuvrability, and comfort. It comes with a 31mm telescopic fork, 3.9 inches front travel, and dual shock absorbers. The 3.7-inch suspension travel at the rear provides additional comfort and security.
What's more, the 2.1-gallon fuel tank is beneath the floorboard which is a thoughtful touch as it reduces the centre of gravity giving you further stability, manoeuvrability, and smooth travel through traffic and rough terrain.
Power
The 157cc engine of the 2023 Honda PCX is more than just numbers on paper. It translates to real-world power that instils confidence to tackle any road. Whether you're cruising down the freeway or navigating through city streets, the PCX's engine delivers a punchy performance. The freeway capability of this scooter is a testament to the engineering prowess of Honda, providing a ride that's as exhilarating as it is efficient.
Other Features
Apart from design, engine, and power, the new PCX offers a host of new and improved features that are a clear response to the feedback of riders. Here's a look:
• The scooter comes with a 1.7-litre front storage compartment complete with a USB-C socket, providing a convenient space to store essentials like phones or wallets.
• There's an additional storage area under the seat with a whopping 30-litre capacity, which can easily accommodate a full-face helmet. That's something you're unlikely to find in other scooters.
• The inclusion of both a side stand and a centre stand makes parking a breeze, and the minimal footprint is a boon in crowded urban settings.
The new enhanced PCX 2023 which promises both style and safety, comes at a competitive price of approximately $4,149 (about 1,20,000 INR) making it affordable for almost everyone. Meticulously tailored for both daily commutes and joy rides, the fortified engine and thoughtful design set this wonderful scooter apart.
