Right before the New Year, Honda Vietnam officially introduced an updated version of the Winner X to the market. In addition to the new decals that give it a fresh look, the 150cc manual transmission bike also comes with a two-way slip-resistant clutch assembly.
According to the latest report, in 2022, Honda Vietnam delivered over 117,000 units of the Winner, accounting for 4.9% of the more than 2.4 million motorcycles sold by the Japanese brand in the Vietnamese market. On average, for every 20 Honda motorcycles sold, one is a Winner.
This number surpasses other domestic competitors in the underbone motorcycle segment. It also clearly proves that the Winner X is the top choice for the majority of riders who love the driving experience and aspire to venture into the world of sport bikes.
Taking a closer look at the Honda Winner X: this model is powered by a 150cc dual cam fuel-injected engine, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission – known for its outstanding power and durable performance, as well as its fuel efficiency and smoothness. The bike is equipped with ABS brakes, a digital instrument cluster, and user-friendly features such as Smartkey, USB charging port, and LED lighting system.
Winner X already came with numerous conveniences, accessories, excellent performance, and eye-catching sporty appearance. Thanks to active feedback from consumers, Honda has made significant improvements to the Winner X in the past, such as adjusting the exhaust angle and switching from separate turn signals to integrated ones.
With such high demand, the Winner X continues to evolve and gain the trust of consumers. It has become a heavyweight competitor, dominating the majority of the 150cc manual motorcycle segment in the Vietnamese market.
However, Honda Vietnam does not rest on its laurels and continues to introduce updates by adding a highly attractive feature to this manual transmission bike: a two-way slip-resistant clutch assembly.
Along with ABS brakes, the slip-resistant clutch will allow riders to enjoy a smooth and safe journey. Shifting gears or downshifting in unexpected situations can be done more quickly, without causing the rear wheel to lock and resulting in loss of control or potential accidents.
In addition, Honda has also refreshed the manual transmission bike with various attractive features. Notably, it includes lighter cast wheels for both the front and rear. As a result, riders will find the 2024 Winner X more agile and easier to maneuver (change direction) compared to its predecessor.
Of course, a manual transmission bike like the Honda Winner X, which is born with a strong sporting spirit, cannot be without its “fiery” appearance. The new version continues to feature decals in three color tones: red – white – sky blue, accompanied by yellow-painted wheels.
It’s not hard to see the “fierce” MotoGP atmosphere that has been brought from the CBR1000RR-R down to the Winner X street bike, as a cheer from professional racers to speed enthusiasts.
The popular features are also retained in this version of the bike, such as the pre-attached O-ring chain, rear disc brake and large rear tire, metal handlebars, and sleek and sharp rearview mirrors.
The Honda Winner X 2024 will be officially available at all Head dealerships nationwide from Christmas Eve, December 24; with prices ranging from 46 – 50.5 million VND (approximately $2,000 – $2,200) for 3 versions and a total of 7 different color options.
The bike comes with an official 3-year or 30,000 km warranty, as well as the opportunity to join the rider community with a series of exciting activities and trips taking place across the country.
Ultimately, riding a Honda Winner X is not just about owning a powerful, convenient, and fuel-efficient manual transmission bike. It represents a dynamic lifestyle, a passion for adventure, and a love for experiencing all the roads throughout the S-shaped country.
The bond among all Winner owners forms a large and strong community with unified and vibrant activities all over the country – something that no competitor of Honda Winner X can achieve. With this strength, Winner X will continue to be the champion in the manual transmission motorcycle segment against its domestic rivals.
