Honda CX-02 Concept
Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India has
unveiled the Honda CX-02 Concept at the Auto Expo 2016 in Greater Noida. It is
the second concept motorcycle by HMSI at the show, and follows the footsteps of
the Honda CX-01 Concept that was unveiled at the Auto Expo 2014.
Standing for Concept Cross 02, the Honda
CX-02 has been developed from the ground up by Honda’s R&D team in India,
like its predecessor. The Project CX-02 can be decrypted as CX for Concept
Cross and 02 for being the second design model by HRID for India. The company
states that the CX-02 is the response from the styling design team at HRID to
the ’emerging need of urban Indian youth enjoying global exposure’.
The concept features separate LED
headlamps for low- and high-beam, twin LED DRLs, a narrow and tall visor, hand
guards with integrated turn indicators, a semi-fairing that emerges from the
fuel tank, inverted fork, multi-spoke alloy wheels coated in black, disc brakes
with Nissin calipers and ABS, engine guard, split seat, aluminium rear
sub-frame, tyre hugger, LED tail lamp, fully digital instrument console with a
multi-colour display, switchable traction control system, a stubby twin-port
exhaust canister, and Avon Distanzia 120/70-R17 and 160/60-R17 dual purpose
tyres.
The motorcycle is powered by an inline
twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine.
