Honda
Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd. (HMSI) has launched the all new
Grazia 125 BSVI scooter with several feature and performance related changes. At the heart of Grazia 125 is the Bharat Stage
VI compliant Honda’s 125cc PGM-FI HET (Honda Eco Technology) engine, boosted by
Enhanced Smart Power (eSP).
The
Grazia 125 BS VI scooter will be available in two variants - Standard & Deluxe
and will have a choice of four colours–Mat CyberYellow, Pearl Spartan Red,Pearl
Siren Blue and Mat Axis Grey. The starting
price of the scooter is Rs.73,336 (for Standard version, ex-showroom Gurugram,
Haryana).
The
all new Grazia 125 comes with Idling Stop System (this is a new feature available in deluxe
variant) that automatically switches the engine off at the traffic
light and other brief stops, eliminating unnecessary fuel consumption and resulting
in lesser emission. Engine can easily be re-started with a simple twist of the
throttle.
The
scooter now comes with LED DC headlamp (this is a new feature). It also comes equipped
with a unique multi-function switch (this is a new feature) that adds extra level of
comfort. Use it to unlock the seat & open external fuel lid with a single
switch.
The
unique two-way functioning integrated engine start/stop switch (this is a new
feature available in standard veariant) can be used to start the
engine when pressed downwards and acts as an engine kill switch when pressed
upward.
Other
features include Integrated headlamp beam & passing switch (this is a new
feature). It has a side stand indicator with engine-cut off. It has
an Intelligent Instrument Display (this is a new feature). The fully digital meter
gets new intelligent instrument clusters that display advanced informatics like
distance to empty (displays distance one can travel with existing fuel in
tank), average fuel efficiency (for overall fuel efficiency display) &
real-time fuel efficiency for a rich riding experience. The meter displays details like 3-step ECO
indicator, clock, service due indicator and other mileage related information.
The
3-step adjustable rear suspension allows rider to choose his riding preferences
in three stages as per his comfort and road condition. There is also a re-designed
under seat storage and bigger premium quality front glove box that allows more
practical storage space.
The
Grazia 125 BS VI scooter comes equipped with Combi Brake System (CBS) with
Equalizer technology. The unique equalizer in Honda’s advanced Combi Brake
System (CBS) distributes braking force proportionately between front and rear
wheels simultaneously by pressing just the left lever resulting in reduced
braking distance & improved balance compared to conventional braking.
The
split LED position lamp (this is a new feature) gives the all new Grazia
125 a more aggressive look. New chiseled tail lamp, jet inspired rear winkers
and split grab rail portray a modern edgy image. There is a 3D logo emblem on side panel &
the Honda badging on the floor panel. The scooter comes with premium black
alloy wheels (only
on the deluxe variant)
Honda will also be offering a special 6-year
warranty package (this is a new feature) (3 years standard + 3 years optional
extended warranty) on Grazia 125 BSVI.
All
new Grazia 125 brings technology involves Enhanced Smart Power (eSP) which in
turn is an integration of the following:
•
Unique Honda ACG Starter starts the engine jolt free via the same AC generator
used to generate current and charge the battery while riding. This eliminates
the need for a conventional starter motor, thus, there are no gear meshing
noises.
•
Two mechanical features lead to engine start with less effort - the first being
efficient utilisation of decompression with slightly opened exhaust valves (at
the beginning of compression stroke) and Swing Back (this is a new feature) which
rotates the engine in a slightly opposite direction, which allows the piston to
take a ‘running start’, making it easier to start the engine with a small
amount of power.
•
Improvised tumble flow: Honda developed the world’s first tumble flow
technology through integrated die-casting process. It produces tumble flow by
optimising inlet port shape and using reverse flow phenomenon, without adding
additional components leading to combustion improvisation.
•
Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) (this is a new feature): It injects the right
amount of fuel in cylinder based on specific engine data and constant feedback
from the 6 intelligent sensors (Engine oil temperature sensor, Engine Speed
sensor, Oxygen sensor, Air pressure sensor, Air temperature sensor, Throttle
Position Sensor) resulting in smooth and linear power output throughout.
•
Friction Reduction: Offset cylinder, compact weight crankshaft & piston
reduce overall engine friction. Optimized weight results in improved fuel
efficiency. The piston cooling jet improves cooling efficiency & maintains
optimum engine temperature leading to improved fuel efficiency.
