The bike is expected to come in two versions:
- A standard model with a regular (naturally aspirated) engine
- A top-end model with the electric compressor
Expected Price in India
The Honda V3R’s price is not official yet but it’s expected to start at around Rs 14.80 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the base variant based on €14,500 in Europe, On-road in Delhi add Rs 50,000–1 lakh for insurance and registration, so expect Rs 15.3–16 lakh.
