Price of Honda motorcycle, sales leader among motorcycle couriers, undergoes significant adjustment

Honda announced a readjustment in the prices of the CG 160 line, the best-selling motorcycle in Brazil since 1976. In the first six months of 2024 alone, 224.381 units of this motorcycle were registered. But with the new values, does it continue to be the best option? Let's understand this increase and what it means for motorcycle couriers and other consumers.

The top of the line version, Honda CG 160 Titan, experienced the biggest increase, going from R$ 16.760 to R$ 17.440, an increase of R$ 680. The intermediate and best-selling version, CG 160 Fan, rose from R$ 15.444 to R$ 16.070, a difference of R$ 626. Even the CG 160 Cargo, widely used by delivery professionals, had an adjustment of R$310, going from R$15.660 to R$15.970. The entry-level configuration, CG 160 Start, now has a starting price of R$14.650, R$568 higher than the previous price.

Price comparison of the CG 160 line

  • Honda CG 160 Start: R$ 14.650
  • Honda CG 160 Cargo: R$ 15.970
  • Honda CG 160 Fan: R$ 16.070
  • Honda CG 160 Titan: R$ 17.440

A Honda motorcycle CG 160 doesn't lead the market for nothing. With a single-cylinder flex engine that delivers 15,1 hp and 1,54 kgfm of torque in the Cargo, Fan and Titan versions, and 14,9 hp and 1,4 kgfm in the Start version (gasoline only), it combines reliability, performance and cost-benefit that’s hard to beat. Furthermore, the presence of disc brakes at the front in the more expensive versions and the well-structured dealer network guarantee effective after-sales service.

New competitors in 2024

Despite the price increase, the Honda motorcycle CG 160 remains the choice of many. However, in 2024, the Shineray 150 EFI arrives as a strong competitor. With digital panel, front disc brake, electronic injection, and LED headlights, it tries to steal consumers' attention. However, unseating the market leader will not be an easy task.

Most expensive favorite of the Motoboys

The increase in the price of Honda motorcycle, Motoboys' favorite, raises the question: is it still worth investing in the CG 160? Despite the readjustments, the attributes that made it the best-selling motorcycle in Brazil are still present. If you are looking for a reliable, good-performing and cost-effective motorcycle, the CG 160 is still a strong candidate.

But the message remains: with fierce competition and rising prices, it is important to analyze all options before deciding. So, will the Honda CG 160 continue to be your favorite?
