Price of Honda Air Blade 160cc Scooter
Freshly introduced on May 20 and officially available for purchase starting May 31 at Honda HEAD stores, the newest generation of Air Blade scooter with a powerful 160cc engine has captured the attention of consumers.
According to Honda Vietnam's announcement, customers can now choose to purchase the Air Blade 160cc in two standard and special editions, with the suggested retail price ranging from 55.99 to 57.19 million dong (VAT included, excluding on-road costs).
However, similar to most other Honda scooter models, the Air Blade 160cc is also susceptible to price inflation when it reaches dealers. Therefore, Vietnamese consumers may find it difficult to purchase the Air Blade 160cc at the listed price.
According to reports from various Honda HEAD dealers, both the standard and special editions of Honda Air Blade 160 are pushing prices higher than the listed price by approximately ten million dong. Specifically, the standard version of Honda Air Blade 160cc is priced at 62.1 million, while the special edition is 64.1 million dong. Prices may vary among different dealers. Additionally, there is a shortage of supply of Honda Air Blade 160cc to meet customer demand.
