Honda will be the first motorcycle manufacturer to offer a hybrid series scooter. Last week, he announced plans to offer the PCX Hybrid; based on the PCX scooter but now with electric assist. At the Tokyo Motor Show last year, Honda drew visitors with a PCX Hybrid concept. This concept is becoming a reality and will be sold exclusively in Japan this year.

The "D" mode provides comfortable driving with light assistance and improved fuel economy.
Honda claims that with the hybrid system, the PCX Hybrid is capable of reaching 55 km / l with two passengers
