Honda Opens Dealer-Level Bookings for ADV160, Rebel 300 and XR300 Range

Bookings for the Honda ADV160, Honda Rebel 300, Honda XR300L and Honda XR300 Rally via the authorised Honda BigWing dealers have been started. These are unofficial bookings, i.e., dealer-level expressions of interest. Individuals who are interested in buying any of these models recently showcased for the Indian market may show interest by visiting the nearest BigWing dealership.

The first one is the Adventure maxi-scooter, the second is the Bobber-style motorcycle, the third is the Enduro motorcycle, and the fourth is the Rally motorcycle. As of now, the date for the launch of any of these isn’t confirmed by Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India. Reports suggest that they will be available for sale in the Indian market around November 2026; however, the official confirmation is still pending.

The official bookings for these models may start in October 2026 if the manufacturer has made plans to launch them during the festive season. They won’t take orders through the authorised dealership but also through the company’s official website. To book any model, one may have to pay an amount, which will vary model to model. Since their unveiling many specifications and features have emerged for each; let’s take a closer look at them. 

Honda ADV160

The upcoming adventure maxi-scooter ADV160 is powered by a 156.9cc single-cylinder, liquid- or water-cooled internal combustion engine with CVT automatic that can run on both pure petrol and E85 fuel.

The off-road motorcycle XR300L is equipped with the 293.5cc single-cylinder, air-cooled engine mated with a 6-speed manual gearbox. Its power output and peak torque are 27 PS and 26 Nm, respectively. Reports confirm that the front and rear suspension are a long-travel telescopic fork and a Pro-Link monoshock, respectively, with disc brakes on both wheels.

21-inch and 18-inch wheels are certain as front and rear alloy wheels, respectively, with the 875 mm seat height and 255 mm ground clearance ensuring better off-roading capabilities. Features that are confirmed for this model are a 7.8-litre fuel tank, LCD instrument cluster, Honda Selectable Torque Control, and switchable dual-channel ABS.

Honda XR300 Rally

The adventure motorcycle Honda XR300 Rally has the same powertrain as the off-roader XR300L. The key differences between these two motorcycles are that it has a rally-style front fairing, a taller windscreen for better wind protection, hand/knuckle guards for safety during off-roading, a larger fuel tank for fewer refuelling stops, and a 5-inch TFT with wireless connectivity for navigation and call and SMS alerts. 

Its front suspension is the same, but at the rear, it gets a gas-charged Pro-Link monoshock. This motorcycle is for those riders who are looking for more touring-friendly ergonomics. It has more kerb weight and seat height, but a little less ground clearance. After the launch, it will compete with the KTM 250 Adventure, the Suzuki V-Strom SX and the TVS Apache RTX 300.
