Honda unviels Aviator

Two-wheeler maker Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India launched its latest 102 cc scooter 'Aviator' priced at Rs 40,708/ (ex-showroom).

"The company after successfully reviving the scooter market from the brink of extinction is now set to redefine the positioning of scooters. The Hyderabad market provides HMSI an immense opportunity to expand and the company is looking forward to introduce and promote its range of products further in the city," HMSI South head Raja Gopi told reporters.

"The All India launch of the product is on March 6," Gopi said, adding that they plan to target one lakh units during 2008-09. With increasing standards of living, the need for products expressing strong individuality is rising. Aviator very appropriately addresses this need and combines it with the utility of a scooter to fill an important gap in consumer demand, he said.

The scooter would be available in two variants, standard and deluxe. Deluxe variant has front disc brake and 12" alloy wheels. It would be available in five colours and is proven 102 cc Honda engine.
