Honda has announced one new and three returning small-displacement offerings, which include a sportbike and a trio scooters. Leading the charge for the scooters is the heavily updated 2021 Honda PCX, followed by the 2022 Honda Ruckus, 2022 Honda Metropolitan and 2021 Honda CBR300R sportbike.

Formerly known as the PCX150, the 2021 Honda PCX features fresh styling, new amenities and an updated 157cc engine.

The oversquare 60mm bore and 55.5mm stroke has led to a 7cc increase in displacement. A larger 28mm throttle body improves fuel economy, Honda says. To boost reliability, the 2021 PCX now employs a hydraulic cam-chain adjuster. 

The Honda PCX’s under-seat storage is capable of holding a full-face helmet.
The double-cradle steel chassis is completely redesigned and provides better handling. Bolted to that new frame are new plastics, which features a much sleeker profile. Riders will also have a handy 30-liter under-seat storage compartment, making trips to school, work or the grocery store a snap. Lastly, a USB charging port is included. 

Other amenities include an LED headlight and indicators, a larger LCD instrument panel, a centerstand, Honda Selectable Torque Control and optional ABS ($100). 

Pricing begins at $3,799, which is only $100 above the PCX150?s MSRP ? not too shabby. Availability is scheduled for March and is offered exclusively in Pearl White.
