2023 Honda Livo launched in India; prices start from Rs 78,500

- Gets an OBD2-compliant engine

- Bodywork adorned with new graphics

- Cycle parts remain unchanged

Honda has revamped its commuter motorcycle line-up by launching the OBD2-compliant, 2023 version of the Livo. The motorcycle is available in drum and disc variants that are priced at Rs. 78,500 and Rs. 82,500, respectively (both prices are ex-showroom). It will be available in three colour options – Athletic Blue Metallic, Matte Crust Metallic, and Black.

The Honda Livo continues to be powered by the same 109.51cc, air-cooled engine with fuel injection and ACG starter motor for a silent engine start. The commuter offering continues to pump out almost identical power and torque output as the previous iteration at 8.67bhp and 9.30Nm, respectively. Transmission duties are handled by a four-speed gearbox. The hardware package has also remained unchanged with 18-inch alloy wheels accompanied by telescopic forks, dual springs, and a drum brake at both ends. One can also opt for a higher-spec front disc brake version. 

The feature list of the Honda Livo comprises some impressive features for its segment. There’s an integrated engine start/stop switch, DC headlamp, combined-braking system, tubeless tyres, and five-step preload adjustability for the rear suspension. While the overall bodywork of the motorcycle has remained unchanged, Honda has dressed it with updated graphics on the fuel tank and headlamp cowl. 

The Honda Livo comes with a commendable 10-year warranty package which includes three years of standard and seven years of optional extended warranty. It goes up against the likes of the TVS Sport and Hero Passion Xtec.
