Making its return to Malaysia since its first
introduction in 2010, the 2018 SYM E Bonus now comes in three variants – the
SYM E Bonus 110, E Bonus 110 H and Bonus 110SR. The E Bonus 110 is priced at
RM 3,768, while the E Bonus 110 H and the Bonus 110SR retail at RM 3,898 and
RM 4,278, respectively.
Carrying an air-cooled, single-cylinder, four-valve
108 cc power plant that is Euro 3 compliant and produces 7.1 hp at 7,500 rpm
and 7.45 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. As is standard for underbone motorcycles,
the E Bonus uses a four-speed rotary gearbox and chain final drive.
Major difference between the E Bonus models is the
use of front and rear drum brakes for the base model and the 110 H, while the
110SR gets a single disc on the front wheel and drum at the rear. Additionally
the base model E Bonus 110 gets spoked wheels, with the 110 H and 110SR getting
cast wheels. Suspension in front is with conventional telescopic forks and twin
coil-spring shock absorbers in the back. The E Bonus 110 SR also comes with a
USB socket for charging the rider’s electronic devices.
The E Bonus weighs in at 103 kg dry, with fuel
carried in a 4-litre tank and starting is electric with a secondary kick
starter. A storage compartment is found under the seat for storing
miscellaneous items. There are three colour options for the 2018 SYM E Bonus – blue, black
and red. Availability of the SYM E Bonus will be in September, while the E
Bonus 110 H and 110SR will be in SYM dealer showrooms in November.
