      2025 Honda CB300R Patented? Or Is This A New RE Hunter 350 Rival?

      by

      2025 Honda CB300R PatentedHonda has patented a new motorcycle in India that takes a neo-retro Roadster approach. Going by Honda’s past patenting exercises, one would think that this is just a global vehicle and that the company is protecting its IP here in India. However, this looks like an affordable motorcycle that the company might launch in India.
      2025 Honda CB300R Patented?
      One look at this patent design, anyone would dismiss it as a CB300R with a slightly updated design to make it more neo-retro than it already is. This could be true as well. However, there seems to be more about this patent design than what meets the eye. On closer inspection, one can see that it has an air-cooled engine.
      For context, Honda CB300R has a liquid-cooled engine, which doesn’t have fins on the engine block for air-cooling. That said, liquid-cooled engines on Jawa and Yezdi motorcycles get these fins just for aesthetic purposes, which is great attention to detail. We can expect Honda to do something similar with 2025 CB300R.
      2025 Honda CB300R Patented
      If this is true, we might be looking at the new CB300R with an updated design it desperately needs. It gets a new LED headlight, almost identical to the one seen on global 2025 CB300R. There’s a new fuel tank with less clutter and simpler tank shrouds. There’s a beefier belly pan and more muscular body panels on rear subframe.
      Turn indicators are now circular and so are the instrument cluster and ORVMs. The main change can be seen at the rear where we get a new design with a tail tidy. Wheels and tyres look the same and the brakes seem to be carried over too. Exhaust end-can looks the same as current CB300R, with a new heat shield. USD front forks and rear mono-shock are carried over as well.
      Is this a Neo-Retro Hornet 2.0?
      There’s a good probability that Honda might be carving a new version of Hornet 2.0 that takes a neo-retro roadster design. Yamaha has used this formula and has created FZ-X, based on FZ street bike. If this is true, we can see the same 184.4cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that generates 17.3 bhp and 15.9 Nm, mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
      New Honda Roadster Patented
      Given the higher performance ceiling, this new Honda Roadster motorcycle will rival the likes of TVS Ronin and Royal Enfield Hunter 350. Honda could achieve an excellent power-to-weight ratio, similar to CB300F and CB300R. For context, RE Hunter 350 delivers 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm but weighs up to 181 kg. We can expect it to launch by the end of 2025. More

      Where design is concerned, Livo takes a sporty approach with a muscular fuel tank. What amplifies its presence more, are tank shrouds that are finished in a contrasting colour. Honda has also incorporated attractive graphics, which can be seen on fuel tank, headlight and side body panels.
      2025 Honda Livo
      Owing to its commuter roots, Honda Livo gets a long single-piece seat along with a conventional pillion grab rail. The main highlight with 2025 Honda Livo is the fully digital instrument cluster that shows a multitude of information like real-time mileage, ECO indicator, distance to empty (DTE), service due indicator and gear position indicator.
      Other notable additions include a side stand sensor with an engine cut-off feature. Componentry-wise, we still get the same RSU telescopic front forks, twin rear shock absorbers, 18-inch alloy wheels wrapped with 80/100 tyres and CBS (Combi Braking System).
      2025 Honda Livo Instrument Cluster
      Powertrains-wise, we get the same 109.51cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine that is capable of generating 8.7 bhp of peak power at 7,500 RPM and 9.3 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 RPM, mated to a 4-speed gearbox. This powertrain is now OBD2B compliant too, like most new motorcycles in its segment.
      Statement from HMSI
      Introducing the updated Livo, Mr. Tsutsumu Otani, Managing Director, President & CEO, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India, said, “We are happy to announce the launch of the new 2025 Livo. At Honda, we are committed to setting new standards in the commuter motorcycle segment.
      The 2025 Livo reflects our dedication to delivering a premium experience for our customers in the 110cc category with its vibrant styling and new features. We are confident that the new Livo will strongly cater to the diverse needs of Indian riders.”
      Commenting on the launch, Mr. Yogesh Mathur, Director, Sales and Marketing, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India, said, “The Honda Livo has been a trusted choice for our customers and with the 2025 model, we aim to further strengthen its position in the market.
      The integration of OBD2B technology underscores Honda’s commitment to sustainability and compliance with evolving regulations. By enhancing both technology and aesthetics, we aim to offer our customers a motorcycle that seamlessly combines innovation and practicality. We believe that it will be a trusted companion for riders across India to Live Life, Livo Style.” More

      2025 TVS iQube ST Concept Revealed At Auto Expo 2025 – Might Launch Soon

      by

      2025 TVS iQube ST Concept
      At Auto Expo 2025, TVS Motor displayed a few concepts like Vision iQube Concept and RTS X Supermoto Concept. But the production-ready one was the 2025 TVS iQube ST Concept. It is based on current iQube ST and is inspired by Northern Lights and gets a unique colourway which is not sold with standard iQube ST.
      iQube ST Concept
      2025 TVS iQube ST Concept
      TVS Motor has had quite a few showcases at Auto Expo 2025. The most prominent among them was the Apache RTX 300, which was only displayed for a short time. Within the company’s scooter range, we have 2025 TVS iQube ST Concept that might launch as a special edition version soon.
      iQube ST Concept
      The company calls it ‘A symphony of elegance and innovation’. When compared to the standard model, this concept gets a few added goodies to set itself apart. This is a similar strategy that TVS has used with other scooters like NTORQ 125 and Raider 125 motorcycles.
      iQube ST Concept
      What stands out, is the new colourway on 2025 TVS iQube ST Concept. It looks like a gentle Teal shade with a hint of Green and a glittery pearlescent finish. Also, there’s a dual-tone effect on this concept where floorboard and seat gets a unique White shade. Seat upholstery looks premium as it gets a quilted pattern.
      iQube ST Concept 7-inch Touchscreen
      Notably, this concept gets a pillion backrest with cushioning, which is quite rare among the electric scooters sold in India. TVS Motor has also incorporated interesting graphics on this vehicle in White shade that looks rather nice on the base colour. The mentions that this concept is inspired by Northern Lights.
      iQube ST Concept
      Any new features?
      Where features are concerned, this Concept gets a 7-inch touchscreen instrument dashboard, alloy wheels, front disc brake and square ORVMs with minimal bezels. All of these are on offer with Standard iQube ST as well.
      iQube ST Concept
      This is a cosmetic exercise and hence stays identical to standard model, where powertrains are concerned. Battery options include 3.4 kWh and 5.1 kWh. The latter is India’s biggest battery pack option in any scooter and promises a real-world range of 150km on a single charge.

      TVS RTS X Supermoto & Vision iQube Concepts Unveiled At Auto Expo 2025

      by

      TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept (Right) and Vision iQube Concept (Left)At 2025 Auto Expo, TVS Motor took the cover off a few interesting concepts, two of which grabbed our attention a lot. We’re talking about TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept and Vision iQube Concept that look rather good, showcasing a glimpse of the company’s future design direction.
      TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept
      RTS X Supermoto Concept
      This is the first time TVS Motor is trying the Supermoto genre. As seen in the pictures, TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept is still far off from the production line. Mainframe of this motorcycle looks similar to that of Apache RTR 310, while subframe is entirely new. This subframe even houses an under-seat exhaust, which looks rather neat.
      TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept Under-seat Exhaust
      There’s a long single-piece seat that is set too high to offer a high-riding posture with 875mm seat height. Bodywork includes an edgy fuel tank, muscular tank shrouds finished in a translucent effect, a flat LED headlight with a sharp front beak, partial front fork covers and knuckle guards.
      TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept
      Engine start button is below a fighter-jet-inspired toggle on fuel tank, which means it gets a keyless go feature. There’s also a pill-shaped instrument cluster. USD front forks were not adjustable and TVS RTS X Supermoto Concept gets 17-inch wheels on both ends with fat rubber.
      TVS RT XD4 Engine
      It weighs 144 kg and can sprint to 60 km/h in 2.8s and 100 km/h in 6.3s. It is powered by a 299cc engine, probably the new RT XD4 engine, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Supermoto genre is not exactly popular in India. KTM is likely to be contemplating launching 390 SMC R here. Once that happens, TVS might be prepping a rival for it under Apache RTS sub-brand.
      TVS Vision iQube Concept
      Vision iQube Concept
      TVS Motor currently sells iQube range of electric scooters in India with fixed and rechargeable battery options. However, the company seems to be visualising a future where swappable battery tech holds prominence. That’s exactly what TVS Vision iQuve Concept showcased at Auto Expo 2025, seems to be signifying.
      TVS Vision iQube Concept
      Even with design perspective, this futuristic concept vehicle is an astonishing piece. The size quotient has been increased massively. It is much longer and significantly wider than current iQube scooter. Handlebar on this scooter is exposed and they get two square digital screens that seems to take care of switchgear functions.
      TVS Vision iQube Concept
      In place of an instrument cluster, we can see a HUD (Head Up Display). Diamond-shape LED headlight, single-piece seat, muscular side body panels, extending tail section with an inverted ‘U’ shaped LED tail light, massive disc brakes at both ends and fat tyres are notable attributes of TVS Vision iQube Concept.

      Apart from showcasing ‘blast from the past’, Yamaha is also displaying some of their notable global offerings. Some or most of these are likely to land in India as they have been teased and showcased time and time again. Except for Lander 250 ADV, which was not officially showcased.
      Yamaha Lander 250 (Left) and Tenere 700 (Right)
      Lander 250 ABS
      Speaking of Lander 250, it is quite a capable off-roader and is loaded with off-road-worthy hardware. Long-travel suspension, large wire-spoke wheels, 245mm ground clearance, high-set exhaust and minimal bodywork. It is powered by the same 249cc single-cylinder engine as now now-discontinued FZ-25.
      Tenere 700
      This is Yamaha’s most anticipated big bike launch in India. Tenere 700 is powered by the same 73 bhp and 67 Nm 689cc engine as R7, but is packaged in a proper ADV motorcycle. High ground clearance, tall stance, rugged underpinnings and other off-road hardware define the looks of Tenere 700.
      Yamaha YZF-R7
      YZF-R7
      Yamaha has been teasing R7 for quite some time and it was showcased to dealers. Launch probability of R7 in India is quite strong. It is powered by a 689cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that generates 73 bhp and 67 Nm, mated to a 6-speed gearbox.

      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid Debuted At Auto Expo – More Features, Mileage

      by

      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid Debuted
      First showcased to some Yamaha dealers at a recent event, 2025 FZ-S Hybrid has been a highly anticipated motorcycle for India. Yamaha has showcased the updated FZ-S to public for the first time at ongoing 2025 Auto Expo. It gets more features and more mileage (fuel efficiency), thanks to a mild-hybrid system.
      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid
      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid Debuted
      Yamaha is yet to launch FZ-S Hybrid in India, but the vehicle has been unveiled, showing all of its improved equipment. There are a few design changes too, which are interesting. For starters, 2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid misses out on conventional front turn indicators, flanking its LED headlight setup.
      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid
      Now, these turn indicators have been moved into the bike’s fuel tank shrouds. This seems to be done to make front fascia less cluttered than it used to be. It has to be noted that there was a regular FZ Ver 4.0 showcased beside this motorcycle, which had conventional turn indicator setup.
      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid New TFT Cluster
      Where features and equipment is concerned, biggest change is in the form of a fully digital colour TFT instrument cluster on 2025 FZ Hybrid. This is a major departure from FZ’s previous LCD cluster. With Bluetooth connectivity on board, Yamaha has also given this bike turn-by-turn navigation. This cluster can be controlled with the new and improved switchgear.

      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid Engine
      Hybrid Heart
      The main highlight of 2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid is its powertrain, which now gets mild-hybrid technology. We can expect slightly better performance from this new hybrid powertrain as it provides a mild torque boost to improve acceleration. Fuel efficiency will be improved too and will be the key strength of this bike.
      2025 Yamaha FZ Hybrid
      With the inclusion of SMG (Starter Motor Generator), FZ now gets a silent start function along with idle start/stop feature. Launch timeline and prices are not revealed yet. We can expect it to be launched in the coming months. There is a good probability that the Hybrid tech and new TFT cluster are only offered with DLX variant. More

      TVS Apache RTX 300 Spotted At 2025 Auto Expo – Himalayan, Xpulse Rival

      by

      TVS Apache RTX 300TVS has added more options to its 300cc portfolio with the new Apache RTX 300 ADV bike. In this space, the brand already offers RTR 310 and RR 310. Upon launch, TVS Apache RTX 300 will challenge rivals like KTM 250 Adventure.
      TVS Apache RTX 300 Spotted – Key features
      Revealed at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, TVS Apache RTX 300 has dual headlamp design, an ADV front beak and a large windscreen. At the front, one can also notice the USD forks in golden finish. Other key features include knuckle guards, sculpted fuel tank, sleek tank extensions, split seats and a chunky upswept exhaust.
      The bike has robust grab rails and mounting racks for a top box and side panniers. For touring needs, TVS is likely to offer a comprehensive range of accessories with Apache RTX 300. This model revealed at the Bharat Expo 2025 has alloy wheels. Front and rear wheels measure 19-inch and 17-inch, respectively, and are wrapped in dual-purpose tyres.
      It is expected that this road-biased version of Apache RTX 300 could be launched later this year. Reports indicate that an off-road version of Apache RTX 300 is also under development. This model will have spoke wheels, 21-inch at front and 17-inch at the rear. The off-road version will be launched a few months after the launch of the road-biased version.
      2025 TVS Apache ADV Spied
      TVS Apache RTX 300 uses a steel trellis frame in combination with a separate sub-frame at the rear. While the front has USD forks, the bike gets a mono-shock unit at the rear. The colour theme seems attractive and one can also notice some sporty graphics on the side panels. The fuel tank has ‘Apache’ lettering in red, whereas the tank extension has the TVS galloping horse logo in black finish. The visuals are not as flamboyant as the KTMs, but overall profile seems refined and mature.
      TVS Apache RTX 300 – New engine, improved performance
      Powering TVS Apache RTX 300 will be a new RT-XD4 engine. TVS unveiled this new engine last year in December. It is a 299cc unit, with bore and stroke of 78 mm and 62.6 mm. Power output is 35.45 PS and 28.5 Nm. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, integrated with a slipper clutch.
      There will be advanced features such as multiple riding modes, ride-by-wire throttle and traction control system. TVS is likely to offer switchable dual-channel ABS with Apache RTX 300. TVS Motor’s existing 312.12 cc engine produces 35.6 PS and 28.7 Nm. As is evident, the new engine has slightly lower numbers.
      TVS Unveils New 300cc Engine
      However, as the new engine utilizes an advanced architecture, it can deliver a better overall ride experience. With its improved linear torque characteristics, the new engine can ensure smooth rides for users. It is also possible that the new engine could be lightweight in comparison to the existing 312cc unit. In that case, the new engine will have a higher power-to-weight ratio. Fuel efficiency could also be better with the new engine.

      TVS Jupiter CNG Showcased At 2025 Auto Expo – 1st Of Its Kind

      by

      TVS Jupiter CNG Showcased
      While Bajaj has made significant strides in CNG tech on 2W with Freedom 125, TVS is also jumping on the bandwagon, but with a scooter. Yes! TVS has just debuted a CNG scooter based on Jupiter 125 with a small CNG tank placed under the seat. This has eaten into Jupiter’s boot space, but this is only a tech demonstration and is not final production form.
      TVS Jupiter CNG Showcased
      TVS Jupiter CNG Showcased
      At the outgoing 2025 Auto Expo, TVS Jupiter CNG grabbed a lot of eyeballs. On the outside, there is not a single cue to show this is a CNG vehicle. Only once you lift the seat, one can see a plastic cover that is placed on top of a CNG tank. This is where ICE Jupiter 125’s underseat storage used to be.
      TVS Jupiter CNG
      TVS Jupiter CNG is still in concept phase and feels rough around the edges. However, it is a demonstration of possibilities and final production version will feel much more refined in terms of packaging. Bajaj Freedom 125 had a switch to change fuels, from CNG to Petrol and vice-versa. Which might be present in production-spec TVS Jupiter CNG.
      TVS Jupiter CNG
      When the seat is up, we can see a pressure gauge beside the hump and this is where CNG pressure is indicated. Right beside it, we can see a filler nozzle too. We hope the production model gets an external filler nozzle. Launch timeline is not revealed yet.
      TVS Jupiter CNG Specs
      Specs and Range
      Speaking about specs and numbers, TVS Jupiter CNG packs a circular tank with 1.4 kg CNG capacity. Because the CNG tank, petrol tank has been reduced to just 2 litres in capacity. Jupiter 125’s engine is modified to run on both Petrol and CNG. When run on CNG, TVS claims a fuel efficiency figure of 84 km/kg.
      TVS Jupiter CNG
      Combined with the 2 litre petrol, TVS promises around 226 km range on one filling (1.4 kg CNG + 2 litre Petrol). Production-spec TVS Jupiter CNG might feature more refinements to this system and there might be an increase to total range. The same 124.8cc engine does duty on Jupiter CNG with 7.1 bhp and 9.4 Nm, when run on CNG. Top speed is 80 km/h. More
