Honda Click 150i

The newest iteration of the Honda Click 150i is not only slimmer and shorter than before but also more sporty, muscular, and appealing from all angles. Standing at 1919 mm long, 679 mm wide, and 1062 mm tall, the scooter flaunts a modular robotic design language, which, in turn, makes it look calmer and more composed than ever before. Furthermore, the Honda Click 150i features an LED headlamp, LED turn signals, and a sporty-looking LED taillight. Even though the scooter is quite decent in size, it still features a small 18-litre under-seat storage. The Click 150i rides on five-spoke black cast alloy wheels that wear 90/80 and 100/80 size tubeless tyres at the front and rear, respectively. A few chrome badges, sporty exhaust with a rectangular aluminium end can, adequately sized rearview mirrors, LCD instrument cluster, and other bits & pieces provide the Honda Click 150i with a true to 2020 look and feel. Color options include Pearl Fadeless White, Matte Crypton Silver Metallic, Matte Gunpowder Black Metallic, and Matte Solar Red Metallic.

As a whole, the Honda Click 150i offers a very comfortable and easy-to-ride experience to its users. The only issue that could ever trouble you is the low ground clearance that measures 132 mm only. Besides, a not too tall 769 mm seat-height, perfect placement of the handlebars, and an untroubled seating posture, all make for a great riding experience for the Click 150i riders. As for the suspension setup, the Japanese scooter gets telescopic forks at the front and a unit-swing at the back.

Apart from the design & appearance, the Honda Click 150i does a great job at impressing the users with its powertrain and performance as well. Hiding under all the glamour is a highly-capable 150cc four-stroke SOHC petrol-fed engine that makes 13 hp of maximum power at 8,500 rpm and a peak torque of 12.8 Nm at 5,000 revs. This engine also comes furnished with liquid-cooling, electronic fuel injection, idle start/stop tech, and Enhanced Smart Power along with an ACG Starter. As far as the fuel-efficiency is concerned, the Honda Click 150i can return a mileage of up to 52 kmpl.

Though the Honda Click 150i doesn't come equipped with a rear disc brake and also lacks the much-safer anti-lock braking system, it still performs rather well in the braking department thanks to a hydraulic disc brake at the front along with a mechanical leading trailing drum brake setup at the back. Also, making its way to the Honda Click 150i is the Smart Key System with keyless lock & unlock, ignition on/off, anti-theft Alarm, and an Answer Back System. With all that said and understood, Honda should have still propped up its stylish scooter with a rear disc brake and ABS technology.

While the Honda Click 150i faces fierce competition by the likes of the Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 and others in the Philippine automobile market, the Japanese scooter still stands firm as one of the best options in the segment. With a sharp, attractive, and beefy appearance, a long list of creature comforts, and a potent powertrain, the Honda Click 150i ticks pretty much all the boxes to be your first or next scooter without a fuss. On top of all that, the price tag of Php 98,900 makes sure that there isn't too much load on your pocket, either.
