New Honda Scooter Scooter

NICE MOVES
We’ve taken the PCX125 apart and put it back together again – and improved every part. Smartly updated styling strikes futuristic lines and hides more under seat storage, USB Type-C socket and Smart Key convenience. A brand-new, liquid-cooled 4V engine delivers more power – improving acceleration and top speed – while still returning amazing fuel economy. It’s also equipped with Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) to maintain rear tyre grip, wet or dry. A new frame, wider tyre sizes, longer-travel rear suspension, and ABS braking make for a smooth and confident ride.

FREEDOM OF THE STREETS
You’re busy and you need to get places. The new PCX125 is ready.

First, let’s explain the philosophy behind it, and what’s made it one of Europe’s favourite scooters for over a decade. Personal Comfort with an ‘X’ level – PCX –  is provided by the sit-in riding position, underseat storage for a full-face helmet and all-round high build quality. There’s no waiting around for an expensive taxi, or delayed public transport – just hit the start button and go. The slim, agile PCX125 can wriggle through town traffic with ease, taking you where you need to be in style – and on time.

TIME ON YOUR SIDE
One of our best-selling 125cc scooters gets even better.

The PCX125 is designed to get you where you want to be in the city, and look good as it does. Its stunning looks have always grabbed attention, never more so than now, but, hidden away beneath the swooping bodywork, are details that make life that much easier. The ignition is operated by the Smart Key – just put the key in your pocket and ride. It also manages the optional Smart top box, which is unlocked when you’re with your PCX125, and automatically locks when you walk away.

Extra storage space and USB Type-C charger
Total volume under the seat is now 30.4L – perfect to store a full-face helmet, and much more. You’ll also find a USB Type-C socket in the glovebox, to keep your smartphone topped up while riding.

Full LED lighting
In busy urban environments it pays to see and be seen, night and day. Full, premium LED lighting does both and picks the PCX125 out from the crowd with a crisp signature daytime running light up front.

More powerful eSP+ four-valve, water-cooled SOHC engine
The new powerplant delivers faster acceleration, from a standing start and while moving, and higher top speed. With ACG generator, Idling Stop technology and EURO5 compliance, it’s cleaner too.

Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC)
HSTC monitors and manages rear tyre grip at all times, giving you extra confidence to ride in wet conditions and lets you know when it’s actively working. And, if you want, you can turn HSTC off.

Attractive digital instrument display
A new, widescreen central console instrument layout presents all information neatly and concisely. A central LCD shows speed, while other information available includes odometer, trip meter, fuel gauge, average fuel consumption and Idling Stop indicator.

Redesigned frame and rear suspension
The new duplex steel cradle frame is designed to deliver the durability needed for the rigours of urban life, without losing the in-town manoeuvrability the PCX125 has always been famous for. We’ve also added longer travel rear shock absorbers, with heavier springs, to enhance comfort.

New wheels with larger tyres
Both wheels employ a stylish new design to complement the bodywork. Tyre sizes are also larger, 110/70-14 front and 130/70-13 rear, for improved road holding and ride quality – no matter where you ride in the city.

Heated Grips (Do no come as standard, available separately)
If you still need to keep riding through the colder days of winter, a pair of heated grips will keep your hands warm. The switch mounts on the left handlebar, and the attachment kit and harness needed for fitting are included in the kit.

35L Top Box (Do no come as standard, available separately)
Offering extra flexible space, this stylish top box can store one full-face helmet, and more. It’s detached easily and quickly, and mounts on an injection-moulded resin carrier that integrates neatly with the rear grab rail of the PCX (available separately).
