Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India has shared a new teaser video of its much-awaited entry-level adventure tourer in India.  The new motorcycle will debut on 19th August. The bike which will be based on the Hornet 2.0 will get the NX moniker, a name Honda has used for single-cylinder dual-sport motorcycles. Earlier this year, Honda registered the name ‘NX200’ in India.

The upcoming adventure bike certainly gets design cues from the Hornet 2.0. As seen from the teaser video shared by Honda, the upcoming NX200 gets a similar headlight unit and the front suspension. Other noticeable parts are the knuckle guards with turn indicators, a larger windscreen, wide handlebar, engine guard, etc.  The upcoming bike could also get alloy wheels and long-travel suspension.

Powering this new adventure tourer will probably be the same 184cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine from the Hornet 2.0, but with a different state of tune. The Hornet 2.0 motor delivers 17 hp and 16.1 Nm and it is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.

With the introduction of the NX200, Honda India is certainly looking to cater to a wide range of audiences. Earlier this year, the company entered the 350cc segment with the H’ness CB350. While the Hornet 2.0 marked Honda’s foray into the 200cc segment, it is the upcoming NX200 that is expected to catch the market by surprise.
