The Motorcycle That Combines Economy, Robustness, and Comfort Dominates the National Ranking, Shows Strong Sales Performance, and Reinforces Interest in Lightweight Trail Models in Brazil.
The Honda Bros 160 closed October 2025 as the 4th best-selling motorcycle in the country, solidifying its position among the favorites for those who alternate usage between the city and light dirt trails.
In a month of broad dominance by Honda in the top 10, the flexible trail reinforced the proposal of robustness, economy, and controlled maintenance costs, with high liquidity in resale.
According to a sector survey published at the end of the month, the Bros totaled 19,757 units — this number refers to registrations, not to monetary value in reais.

Top 10 in October: Honda Dominance and Space for Trails
The monthly report showed the CG 160 in the lead, followed by Biz 125 and Pop 110i.
Right behind was the Bros 160, ahead of urban models focused on fleets and daily use.
The Mottu Sport 110i maintained a significant presence among delivery vehicles, while Yamaha registered the Factor 150 and FZ 25 among the top ten.
The XRE 190 rounded out the group, signaling continuous interest in trail motorcycles across different price ranges.
Daily updates throughout October already indicated this scenario, with the Bros steady in 4th place in the second half of the month.
Sales of the Bros 160: Versatility That Converts Registrations
With nearly 20,000 registrations for the month, the Bros reaffirms its role as a “wild card” for those crossing neighborhoods with uneven pavement, cobblestones, potholes, and connections of packed earth.
The position achieved is not the result of a one-time spike, but rather consistent demand for a light trail that delivers comfort and durability without requiring jumps in displacement.
Partial monitoring before the official closing already indicated the motorcycle solidly established in the top 5, with increasing numbers in the last week of October.
Why the Bros 160 is Appealing in Real Use
The design combines high riding position, longer travel suspension, and 19” front wheels and 17” rear wheels.
This setup better absorbs irregularities and increases confidence on poor surfaces, which directly impacts daily comfort.
In urban traffic, the ergonomics favor maneuverability and visibility of the surroundings, while the chassis geometry preserves the agility typical of 150/160 cm³ street bikes.
Mechanical Set and Safety Features
Equipped with a 162.7 cm³ flex engine, the Bros delivers maximum power in the range of 14.2/14.3 hp (gasoline/ethanol) and torque around 14.1/14.2 N·m, coupled to a five-speed transmission.
The progressive delivery makes it easier for those migrating from entry-level models and needing predictable responses in starts and short climbs.
Active safety is enhanced by the availability of ABS on the front wheel, a feature that mitigates the risk of locking during emergency braking, especially on wet surfaces or over gravel.
Lighting, Connectivity, and Practicality
The current generation features a LED headlight and offers a USB charging port depending on the version and package, which helps users of cell phone mounts for navigation.
These elements, although simple, reduce improvisation in daily use and resonate with audiences making long journeys between neighborhoods or working on mixed routes.
Fuel Economy, Maintenance, and Longevity
The Bros is recognized for its low fuel consumption in moderate urban use, especially when the rider maintains smooth driving and keeps preventive maintenance up to date.
The wide access to parts and the reach of the dealership network weigh in favor of total ownership costs.
The ground clearance and mixed-use tires still provide extra margin to overcome high speed bumps, ditches, and pothole areas without scraping components.
In the long term, the combination of high demand and a robust image tends to sustain higher resale value than the category average.
Price and Positioning: Where It Fits
The suggested retail price starts at R$ 21,320 for the CBS version and R$ 22,260 for the ABS (pricing effective from August 1, 2025; freight not included).
With this, the Bros positions itself one step above 150/160 cm³ street bikes in price, but delivers a package more suitable for mixed use.
For those who only ride on smooth asphalt, a street bike typically offers a better cost/benefit ratio.
However, for the “real asphalt” of suburbs and roads under construction, the Bros tends to be the rational solution due to comfort on poor surfaces and predictable maintenance costs.
Usage Profile: Who Should Consider It
Work and study with routes that mix worn asphalt and light dirt, professional commuting in neighborhoods with irregular pavement, and leisure on rural roads or accesses of packed sand make up the typical scenario of the Bros audience.
For these profiles, mechanical simplicity, wide assistance, and liquidity in resale weigh just as much as performance.
The Position of the Bros in the Ranking and the Sign of Trails
Even surrounded by pure urban motorcycles and models aimed at fleets, the Bros maintained relevance thanks to its versatility.
Being in 4th place in a month when Honda filled seven positions in the top 10 shows that there is continuous demand for a light trail suitable for everyday use, without the maintenance costs of larger displacement models.
The appearance of the XRE 190 among the top ten indicates that the search for higher suspension and trail ergonomics goes beyond the entry-level segment, although the Bros remains the most accessible path for this proposal.
