New 400cc Honda motorcycle is presented to the Asian market. The new Honda CBR400R motorcycle costs less than R$30 with a sporty design and achieves 41 km/l.
The 400 Honda CBR2024R motorcycle was officially presented on the Japanese market. The new model, as well as the NX400 focuses on this market, with smaller capacity versions in relation to the 500 family. With a design reminiscent of the company's larger displacement sports cars, Honda's new motorcycle is also stands out for its interesting fuel consumptiontable.
New Honda CBR400R motorcycle delivers up to 46 horsepower
The price of the new Honda motorcycle is of 863.500 yen, which is around R$28 thousand in direct conversion to our currency, without taking into account other expenses or fees. Honda's 500 line ends up being 400 in Japan, due to local rules and marketing needs, therefore, it must remain focused on the Asian country.
At first, no data was released about the arrival of the Honda CBR400R motorcycle to the Brazilian market, since, here, Honda is really betting on the 500 line. Even so, the CBR500R is no longer part of the brand's portfolio here.

There is a lot of expectation about the arrival of the new NX500 and Hornet 500, which replace, respectively, the CB 500X and CB500F. Honda's new motorcycle has a radical design, but it is not a high-performance sports motorcycle.
The model is based on a 399 cc twin-cylinder engine, which delivers 46 horsepower at 9 thousand RPM and 3,9 kgfm of torque at 7.500 RPM, working in conjunction with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
New CBR400R motorcycle has economy above 40km/l
The average consumption published for the Honda CBR400R motorcycle is 28,1 km/l according to the WMTC index, but the model can be even more economical. Running at an average speed of 60 km/h, the model can achieve up to 41 km/l, according to manufacturer data.
Honda's new motorcycle is equipped with ABS brakes, in addition to a traction control system and a 5-inch TFT panel, which has smartphone connectivity.
It is worth mentioning that the offer of 400 cc versions of larger Honda motorcycles in Japan is justified due to the country's legislation, which allows people aged 16 to be allowed to ride motorcycles with up to this engine capacity limit. Above this level, only those aged 18 or over can drive in the country. This is why it is very likely that we will see a motorcycle like this being sold in Brazil in the future.
Honda Sonic 150R can replace POP
Honda recently announced the Sonic 150R, a compact Japanese sports bike very similar to the Honda Pop 110i. However, the model is not yet for sale on the national market. The price of the model, in Indonesia, starts at 25.520 rupees, which is equivalent to R$8.127 according to the current price, without considering fees and taxes.
A Honda Sonic 150R stands out compared to the Honda Pop 110i, presenting an extremely bold and updated sports design. Its fairing is very sporty and it appears to be a high-powered speed bike.
This is a very well equipped motorcycle that is worth purchasing in relation to the pop 110i. It is worth mentioning that the Honda Sonic 150R is a top-of-the-line version in India, with a completely renewed look and more sophisticated features such as conventional front suspension painted in black and a completely digital dashboard that the pop 110i does not have.
