2022 Honda Genio scooter, with sporty looks, goes official
Japanese automaker Honda has launched the 2022 version of its Genio scooter in Indonesia. Its arrival in our country seems unlikely. As for the highlights, the two-wheeler bears a neo-retro look and gets a digital instrument cluster as well as an LED headlight. It draws power from a 110cc, SOHC, eSP engine that puts out a maximum power of 8.8hp.
Why does this story matter?
The 2022 Honda Genio offers better looks, more features, and improved performance in comparison to the outgoing model. It should attract a lot of buyers in the Indonesian market. If the scooter makes its way to our shores, it has to be priced competitively. It will rival the likes of the Honda Activa 6G and Hero Pleasure Plus.
The scooter has a single-piece seat and USB charger
The 2022 Honda Genio has a headlight and indicator-mounted front apron, a flat footboard, a single-piece seat with a pillion grab rail, a side-mounted exhaust, and arrowhead-shaped mirrors. The scooter packs an LED headlamp, a digital instrument cluster, a USB charging socket, and rides on blacked-out wheels. It gets a 14-liter under-seat storage compartment and a parking brake lock too.
It is fueled by a 9hp, 110cc engine
The 2022 Honda Genio is powered by a 110cc, SOHC engine with enhanced Smart Power (eSP) and an Idling Stop System. The mill puts out a maximum power of 8.8hp and a peak torque of 9.3Nm.
It gets a combined braking system
To ensure the safety of the rider, the 2022 Honda Genio is equipped with a disc brake on the front wheel, a drum brake on the rear wheel, and a combined braking system for better handling on the roads. Suspension duties on the vehicle are taken care of by telescopic forks on the front side and a mono-shock unit on the rear end.
