The Icon of Indian Roads, the Honda CB 350, Makes Its Triumphant Debut in South America, Promising to Revolutionize the Motorcycle Market.
According to Motonline, Honda has just announced a novelty that promises to shake up the South American motorcycle market. The CB 350, known for its classic design and reliable performance, finally sets foot in Latin lands, starting with Colombia. This launch is a significant milestone for Honda’s motorcycle, which has already captured hearts in Asia and is now seeking new horizons.
Style and Accessibility: The Arrival of the CB 350
The CB 350 H’ness arrives with a look that blends retro and modern, and a price that surprises with its accessibility. Colombia, with its vibrant motorcycle market, is the first country to receive the model, which was highlighted at the Feria 2 Ruedas. Honda not only confirmed the launch but also started an exclusive pre-sale, with an initial batch of 60 units, demonstrating the potential of the CB 350 in the region.
Competitive Price in the Colombian Market
In addition to its attractive design, the CB 350 stands out for its competitive price. With an initial value of 18.9 million Colombian pesos, it is positioned well below other models from the brand, such as the XRE 300. Curiously, the CB 300F Twister ABS, another Honda model, shares the same price, highlighting the company’s strategy to offer quality at a good cost. Directly converting, the price is around R$ 24.8 thousand, an additional attraction for motorcycle enthusiasts.

Peugeot publicly acknowledged the errors of the PureTech engine, which caused serious failures in hundreds of thousands of cars, and introduced the new Turbo 100 as a definitive solution, a 1.2 turbo tested for over 3 million kilometers that replaces the faulty belt with a more durable chain.
The Future of the CB 350 in Brazil
The arrival of the H’Ness in Colombia sets precedents for its expansion into other South American markets. Although there is still no official confirmation, the expectation is that the Honda motorcycle may soon cross borders into Brazil. If confirmed, the model would compete directly with the 350 line from Royal Enfield, which currently dominates the medium-displacement classic segment in the country. The CB 350 has the potential to become a strong competitor, combining tradition and innovation in a motorcycle that is already an international success.
Therefore, the Honda CB 350 represents a new era for motorcycle lovers in South America. With its imminent arrival, it remains for Brazilians to eagerly await news confirming its debut in the country. Until then, we can only speculate and admire the successful journey that the CB 350 has already built worldwide.

O que eu achei da moto? Nada, a matéria não informa torque, potência ou consumo. Como vou emitir alguma opinião sem ao menos saber esses dados essenciais?
Essa Moto é linda! Comprarei uma com certeza. A Honda precisa oferecer uma opção dessas, para satisfação de seus clientes!
Infelizmente se chegar ao Brasil vai vir com o preço no mínimo 30000,00
Ou 35.000/ sem contar o DPVAT no Brasil o governo que mais arrecado no mundo em impostos, quer mais e mais lançamentos e por quê aqui é difícil a aceitação por parte do público?
Primeiro por causa da política de impostos, depois por causa da desconfiança do Brasileiro com a indústria que muitas vezes lançam produtos cheios de vícios denfabricação e empurram goela a baixo para esse público que se tornou mais exigentes que anos atrás.
