With an additional electric motor working with the engine, the PCX Hybrid boasts sharper throttle response and superior performance, while being extremely quiet and vibe-free. There are two motor-assist modes are on offer: ‘D’ mode provides comfortable riding and exceptional fuel economy, and ‘S’ mode provides stronger assist for more rapid performance.
You get features like the Honda Smart Key system, which allows the rider to unlock the main switch knob by simply approaching the PCX Hybrid, without a physical key.
