A few days ago, Honda Two-wheelers India officially teased the new Honda Livo BS6. And now, the new 2020 Honda Livo BS6 has been finally launched in India and its price starts at Rs 69,422, Ex-showroom, Jaipur. The new Livo BS6 is sportier than before and boasts of new features too. The 2020 Honda Livo BS6 slots in above the Honda CD 110 Dream and sits below the Honda Shine in the company's India line-up. The new Livo looks very striking and one can even call it the affordable version of the majestic Honda SP 125. Here are some more details about it.
The Honda Livo is a sporty 110cc commuter motorcycle. Earlier, it was on sale with a BS4-compliant engine but Honda didn't update it to BS6 in April 2020. However, now it has made a comeback in the BS6 avatar and is certainly better than before. Aesthetically, the new Livo BS6 looks very sporty, thanks to the new chiselled tank shrouds and attractive body graphics. It gets a sharp front-end, blacked-out visor and body-coloured rear-view mirrors. The motorcycle features a long well-cushioned single-piece seat (+17mm than before) along with a blacked-out grabrail. At the rear, it gets a slim taillamp and overall it looks very handsome.
Talking about the powertrain, the new 2020 Honda Livo is powered by a BS6-compliant 109.51cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, fuel-injected engine. This is the same motor that also powers the new CD 110 Dream. It churns out 8.80 PS of power at 7500 RPM and 9.3 Nm of torque at 5500 RPM. The engine comes coupled to a 4-speed manual gearbox and is the most powerful bike in its class. It gets Honda's Enhanced Smart Power (eSP) technology that maximizes performance and fuel efficiency. It also features Honda's Eco Technology (HET) and an ACG starter motor that starts the bike without a jolt and offers a smooth ride.
