Delhi : The 2023 Hornet 2.0 is now available from Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI), and it is OBD2 compliant. Priced at Rs. 1.39 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), the upgraded Hornet 2.0 OBD2 model. In addition to the architectural adjustments made, the revised model now features new graphics. Additionally, the large fuel tank and forward-leaning aerodynamic style are kept for a powerful road presence. The sporty split seat, key placement on the tank, all-LED lighting system (LED headlight, LED winkers, & X-Shaped LED tail lamp) add to the style. The Hornet 2.0's foot pegs are finished in aluminum and has ten-spoke alloy wheels, which ups the overall style factor.

The 184.40 cc, 4-stroke, single-cylinder, BSVI OBD2 compliant, PGM-FI engine that powers the new 2023 Hornet 2.0 produces 12.70 kW of power and 15.9 Nm of peak torque. The OBD2 Hornet 2.0 employs a number of sensors and keeps an eye on parts that may have an impact on emission performance. It even turns on a warning light on the instrument panel of the car if a problem is found.

The 2023 Hornet 2.0 has been modified with a new assist and slipper clutch that handles rear wheel lock-up on strong downshifts while accelerating and eases upshifts. The Golden Up-side Down (USD) front fork on the Hornet 2.0 is a first for the sub-200cc motorcycle market.

The cutting-edge Fully Digital liquid crystal instrument panel shows data such as the clock, dual trip meters, gear position indicator, odometer, tachometer, battery voltage meter, and service due indicator. Additionally, it has adjustable brightness (which can be set manually at a maximum of five settings for convenience) for improved vision during the day and at night.

Dual, Petal Disc Brakes with a single-channel ABS are included with the new Hornet 2.0. The mono shock rear suspension aids in keeping the center of gravity constant, offering exceptional cornering stability and a great riding experience.

It provides the ideal balance between great performance and a comfortable riding experience thanks to a stress-free riding position. Wider tubeless tires on the Hornet 2.0 (110mm front and 140mm rear) increase rider comfort while the sealed chain, engine-stop button, hazard lights, and side stand indicator increase convenience.
