Model Arrives in October at Stores, Launches the Smallest Displacement Line of the SBM Division in Brazil and Bets on Competitive Price, 12.2 hp Engine, 16-Liter Tank, and Disc Brakes on Both Wheels with Front ABS.
Shineray has set the suggested price of R$ 16,290 for the SBM 150 2026 in Brazil.
According to information published by the portal MOTOO, the debut in stores is scheduled for October, when the model will occupy the base of the SBM line (Shineray Brazil Motors) with an urban proposal and focus on cost-benefit.
Price and Market Arrival
With the confirmed value, the SBM 150 positions itself below the motorcycles of medium displacement already announced by the division.

New 2027 Honda Pop 110i arrives for R$10,588 without a kick-starter, with a handlebar-mounted brake, alloy wheels, and tubeless tires.
The manufacturer aims to attract those seeking a 150 cc equipped at a competitive price.
The distribution will be carried out by the SBM network, a division created to house higher-tier products within the brand in the country, announced to the public in 2025.
Engine and Performance
The mechanical set uses a single-cylinder 150 cc engine with declared power of 12.2 hp.
So far, the company has not released official consumption figures.
As a result, the alleged autonomy of “up to 700 km” has not been detailed by the manufacturer in institutional channels.
Equipment and Safety
The list of standard items includes disc brakes on both wheels and single-channel ABS on the front, a package currently expected in the low-displacement segment.
The model also features a 16-liter tank, a capacity confirmed by brand executives and seen as a differentiator to extend the range between refuels.
Visual signals such as headlights and turn signals in LED appear in the promotional images.
Competition in the Segment
Based on specifications and price, the SBM 150 enters the competition with Honda CG 160 and Yamaha FZ15, both with front ABS in their current versions.
This move places Shineray in one of the largest niches in the country, traditionally dominated by Honda and Yamaha, where entry price, consumption, and maintenance costs weigh in the sales results.
Origin and Industrial Partnership
The official images indicate that the SBM 150 is part of the QJ Motor portfolio, a partner of Shineray in the SBM line.
The cooperation with the Chinese manufacturer also supports other anticipated launches for the division, such as the trail SBM 250, announced for early 2026.
This platform-sharing strategy has been highlighted by Shineray in presentations and social media.
What Is the SBM Line
The acronym SBM stands for Shineray Brazil Motors, a front created to bring together higher-tier models within the national portfolio.
The focus is to offer superior finishing and technical content over the brand’s entry products.
The initiative was presented to the public in 2025, with plans to expand Shineray’s presence in higher value segments.
Availability and Network
The expectation is that the SBM 150 will be at the division dealerships starting in October.
The company did not detail how many stores will operate with the new sub-brand at this first moment, but confirms that distribution will follow the dedicated SBM channel in the country.
What Is Already Confirmed
Confirmed are price, displacement, power, 16-liter tank, and the package of disc brakes on both wheels and front ABS.
However, official consumption and declared autonomy have not been informed by the manufacturer in technical communication.
This leaves projections of range with a tank open.
Meanwhile, the competitive positioning in the 150/160 cc range indicates Shineray’s intention to increase its market share in a segment sensitive to price and equipment.
If real autonomy is one of your purchase criteria, do you plan to wait for independent consumption tests after the launch or consider the 16-liter tank a sufficient argument to decide now?
