Honda is readying CB300R for India. Launch imminent

After a deep sleep of 7 years, I mean Honda went into a deep slumber after launching CBR150R in 2012, has finally awakened with more sense. Even since Honda relaunched CBR250R last year, everyone seemed to lost trust in Honda. But as a matter of fact, Honda has confirmed the launch of CB300R in India. The price they have signaled towards is less than Rs 2.5 Lakh.

Bookings are now open in select dealerships for an amount of Rs 5000.

Rs 2.5 lakh, for this NEO Sports Cafe’? Because Honda has decided to bring CB300Rvia CKD route and will assemble here in India. Thailand is where Honda has intended to import Completely Knocked Down (CKD) kits which will attract a mere 15% import duty. The launch of Honda CB300R in India will happen much sooner than anyone would have expected.

Honda CB300R will be a Pocket Rocket with just 143 Kg weight
