What has changed in the new generation of the PCX 150 2021?

Honda has invested in a new engine for its Honda PCX 150 2021. According to information on the Asia patent from Honda, the new generation of the PCX scooter has a updated VTEC engine, with four valves and one being variable, to make it more efficient.

This means reduced fuel consumption and also reduced emissions of pollutants. That is, perfect for those looking for a motorcycle with a beautiful, robust, effective design, but without harming the environment.

The expectation is that with this VTEC engine, the PCX 150 can have the same power and torque as the models sold in other Asia countries.

And, since we mentioned the design, the look of this Honda PCX is robust, yes, with very aggressive lines, the way fans love it. The brand also brought four versions, each in a different color.
