HONDA ADV 350

Honda ADV 350:

The Honda ADV 350 is an adventure scooter powered by a robust 330 cc single-cylinder engine that makes 28.8 bhp and 31.5 Nm of torque. The ADV 350 is designed for effortless urban commuting with enhanced performance and comfort. The powertrain is mounted on an underbone chassis and suspended by USD front forks and twin rear shocks. The braking system consists of a 256 mm front and 240 mm rear discs coupled to a 15-inch front and 14-inch rear wheel.

The Honda ADV 350 is a striking premium adventure-styled maxi-scooter that perfectly blends rugged, SUV-inspired aesthetics with the comfort and practicality of a large-displacement scooter. Built upon the success of the smaller ADV 150 and inheriting the DNA of the flagship X-ADV, the ADV 350 is designed to handle both effortless urban commuting and light off-road exploration.

While it has achieved significant success in European and Asian markets, its launch in India remains unlikely for the immediate future, although Honda has filed design patents for it.

Performance:

The ADV 350 is powered by Honda's enhanced Smart Power+ engine, delivering strong, responsive performance ideal for highway cruising and quick city manoeuvres.

Engine Type: 330 cc, Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, 4-valve SOHC single

Max Power Output: 21.5 kW ( 28.8 bhp) @ 7,500 rpm

Max Torque: 31.5 Nm @ 5,250 rpm

Transmission: Automatic CVT (V-Belt Final Drive)

Fuel Tank Capacity: 11.7 Litres

Crucially, the powertrain includes Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) with 2 levels, which manages rear-wheel traction, providing an added layer of safety and confidence, especially on slippery or unpaved surfaces.

India Launch Status

While the adventure-scooter segment, popularised by models like the Yamaha Aerox 155, is growing in India, the Honda ADV 350 remains a global-market product. Its premium pricing (expected to be around ₹3 Lakh ex-showroom, if launched) and the relatively niche nature of large maxi-scooters make an official, volume-driven India debut unlikely in the near future, despite Honda filing design patents for the model.
