With a Price Below R$ 18,000, the New AZ160 Xtreme Bets on Premium Technology to Compete with Sales Leaders in the Segment.
Avelloz launched the new AZ160 Xtreme in Brazil with a bold strategy: directly attacking the dominance of the Honda Bros 160 and Yamaha Crosser 150, models that have led the versatile motorcycle market for years. With an initial price of R$ 17,990 in Pernambuco (excluding freight), the motorcycle emerges as an affordable alternative, yet equipped with features that until now were exclusive to traditional brands.
For Avelloz, this is a decisive step to gain relevance in a sector where trust, technology, and after-sales are crucial. And the new AZ160 Xtreme arrives precisely to show that the brand is not just a promise.
The Engine and Performance of the New AZ160 Xtreme
The new AZ160 Xtreme comes equipped with a 161.9 cm³ engine, delivering 12.3 horsepower and torque of 11.6 Nm, reaching a top speed exceeding 110 km/h. These figures place the model in line with its direct competitors, but with an additional detail: fuel consumption.

Safety Features and Premium Technology
One of the highlights of the new AZ160 Xtreme is the list of features generally associated with higher category models. The motorcycle comes equipped with CBS brakes and discs on both wheels, ensuring balanced braking distribution. The wide tires enhance grip on various types of terrain, reinforcing its appeal for those who need versatility.
Additionally, Avelloz included items considered premium: full LED lighting, modern digital dashboard, integrated USB port, adjustable seat, 10-liter fuel tank, and factory luggage rack. To top it off, the brand offers a 3-year or 36,000 km warranty for the engine, transmission, and electrical system, something rare in its price range.
Avelloz’s Market Strategy
The launch of the new AZ160 Xtreme is not just about technical specifications, but rather about positioning. With an aggressive price and a focus on cost-benefit, Avelloz targets exactly the audience that desires the attributes of the Honda Bros 160 and Yamaha Crosser 150, but without paying a premium.
To gain credibility, the company is expanding its network of dealerships and promises mobile technical assistance in remote areas, an important differential in a country with strong demand outside major urban centers. This proximity to the consumer may be decisive in transforming Avelloz into a real threat to industry giants.
The new AZ160 Xtreme arrives with a competitive price, efficient consumption, and technological features capable of rivaling already established motorcycles in the market. The challenge will be to win the trust of Brazilians, something that brands like Honda and Yamaha took decades to build.
And what do you think, does the new AZ160 Xtreme have the strength to break the dominance of the Bros and the Crosser in Brazil? Or do you still prefer to trust the traditional brands? Leave your opinion in the comments — we want to hear from those closely following the motorcycle market.
