Honda provides a memorable journey of discovering The All-New PCX160’s premium comfort and performance
Honda Philippines, Inc., the country’s No. 1 motorcycle manufacturer hosted the PCXceptional Ride on August 29, 2025 giving Media representatives and Moto vloggers a first-hand experience of The All-New PCX160’s premium performance and comfort.
The event aimed for representatives to experience the scooter’s standout and elevated performance, exceptional comfort, and smart features. More importantly, it showcased exactly where The All-New PCX160 truly excels—out on the open road.
Featuring both the Standard and RoadSync variants of The All-New PCX160 Honda’s new premium scooter, the ride began at the Honda Safety Driving Center in Parañaque City, heading towards Café Cecilia in Tanay, Rizal. The participants explored the scenic roads of Tanay, which is ideal for its perfect blend of urban, uphill and countryside riding.
Elevated performance, control, and ride quality in a stylish package
The All-New PCX160's performance was a highlight for riders on the twisty roads from Parañaque to Tanay. The smooth acceleration from its 157cc, 4-stroke, 4-valve, SOHC (Single Overhead Cam), Liquid-Cooled, ESP+ engine was more than enough to handle the route, with riders appreciating its power output of 11.8 kW at 8,500 rpm and torque of 14.7 Nm at 6,500 rpm. Its impressive fuel efficiency of 46 km/L also made it an excellent companion for the long journey ride. They also feel a more comfortable ride with the spacious foot area.
Participants felt confident and in control, especially with the RoadSync type’s advanced safety features. The Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) provided enhanced braking stability, which participants found useful, especially in wet conditions. For sudden acceleration, the Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) was a standout feature, ensuring improved traction and stability. The twin shock rear suspension with subtanks on the RoadSync type provided excellent damping performance. They also noted more riding experience. As for the Standard type, the Combi Brake System on its front and rear disc brakes provided reliable stopping power.
The ride’s superior styling turned heads, with its newly designed All-LED lights. The sleek color choices, like Matte Gunpowder Black Metallic and Pearl Fadeless White for the RoadSync type and Vortex Red Metallic, Pearl Fadeless White, and Matte Bullet Silver for the Standard type, drew admiration from fellow motorists.
Smart and practical features for the city and countryside
Participants also praised its smart and practical features, designed to make both city and countryside riding more convenient. The Honda Smart Key System, with its convenient keyless operation and anti-theft immobilizer, was a popular feature. The built-in USB Type-C charger was appreciated for its modern compatibility and fast-charging capability, keeping devices powered throughout the ride. Another practical addition was the spacious 30-liter luggage box, which provided secure and weather-resistant storage for their things.
Riders on the RoadSync type particularly enjoyed the integrated technology. They took full advantage of the Honda RoadSync system, which, when paired with a smartphone, allowed them to access turn-by-turn navigation, music, calls, and messages. This was all hands-free, thanks to the intuitive multi-function switch on the left handlebar and voice human-machine interface (HMI). The 5-inch TFT meter panel received praise for its enhanced visibility, both day and night, and its user-friendly display of information. The passing light switch was also an important detail that provided an extra layer of safety and improved visibility, especially when overtaking.
