Evaluation of Honda MSX 125 - bold personality priced at 50 million VND

Why do young people love this car so much?

First, the light cluster in the previous version was just a normal light, now it has been divided into 2 floors and led lights, it can be said that this ddefn cluster is extremely impressive even for current large displacement cars. Nowadays, it is not certain that there is an impressive cluster of lights of this type. If you can notice XEHAY's recent videos about Honda's large displacement products, most of them also have led lights and are also divided into 2 floors but as cool as this car, there is no other car as cool as this one. this car.

The second thing that you can immediately see is the Up Side Down shock absorber system in front, it is rare for a small car to have a sports shock absorber like this, perhaps this is also a part. but young people love this car so much, it looks very strong and sporty. The yellow Up Side Down front shock absorber promises to bring a very smooth experience.

And yet, if you pay attention to the rims, the rims look very solid even though it's only small, 12 inches, but the big tire feels very solid, it looks more like a scooter tire than a cone. number like this.

Honda MSX 125 was introduced in Vietnam market for the first time at the end of 2014 and quickly created a fever thanks to its compact design, strong and dynamic performance. The car was inspired by the legendary small car Honda Monkey, a model that once caused a global fever because of its uniqueness, but at that time the relatively high price of the Honda MSX was the only obstacle. Most customers have to consider before deciding to buy a car.

Entering the second generation, Honda Vietnam decided to change its business strategy with the MSX series when it dropped sharply in order to increase its accessibility to young customers, from the price of 60 million VND in the old version. The proposal of the new generation Honda MSX 125 is now only VND 50 million, the price is said to be quite soft for a sports car model imported CBU from Thailand. The new MSX 125 has been redesigned to make this model much more eye-catching and modern. Looking at the overall design of the 125 Honda MSX 2018, it still retains the image of a street warrior with sharp, neatly trimmed blocks and a flexible small body reminiscent of the legendary Hinda Monkey.

These are the parameters that show the extremely compact size of the MSX, this size makes the car suitable for Vietnamese people, especially young people who are looking for their first car. And the fuel tank capacity has increased by 0,2 L compared to the previous generation.

At the front of the car, the Honda MSX still exudes a youthful and dynamic appearance with a new headlight cluster, the round headlight design using halogen bulbs has now been replaced by full LED lights divided into 2 floors. separate from the original edge design is much more impressive. The front turn signal light cluster remains the same as on the old version.

The watch version, if you notice, this electronic clock cluster looks quite modern compared to a small car and with a price of only a few tens of millions like this. If compared with a car about a few hundred million like large displacement cars, this instrument cluster is equally beautiful, the instrument clusters on those cars are very beautiful and well-balanced. The finished details, such as the handle, the buttons, the brake lever are completed very meticulously and do not feel cheap, look very solid and smooth. And yet, the next sports part you can immediately see is that the front and rear wheels are both equipped with hydraulic disc brakes and the brake calipers are painted in a very prominent red. The engine cluster is a 125 cc engine, there's not too much to talk about about this engine, Honda's engine is quiet and durable, it's just that a car like this is equipped with 125 cc. The block is not the right size.

The meter system with the LCD screen of the car remains the same design, only the backlight color has been changed from orange to blue, on the clock face will display necessary information such as speedometer, rpm. engine, trip meter, fuel gauge and alarm clock. Honda MSX 2018 is equipped with a striking yellow reverse-stroke front shock absorber, and a monoshock rear shock absorber with a size of 104 mm. The shock-absorbing design before the reverse journey is the difference of MSX compared to other models in the price range of VND 50 million. Besides, Honda also equips MSX 2018 using 12-inch alloy wheels with 120/70 12 front tires and 130/70 12 rear tires, both front and rear wheels use Nissin disc brakes. . In the new version, the power of MSX 125 does not change too much because:

The parameters of this engine are not too powerful compared to a manual clutch model of the same price as Honda Winer or Yamaha Exciter. However, the attraction of the MSX line lies in the different design, imported car origin and the ability to improve the car's shape. The exhaust has also been placed down and looks quite neat, with the matte chrome trim looking very healthy and sporty. In short, overall this car looks sporty and very personal, only it is suitable for people around 1m70.

The key that opens is like a car key. Detonation is very quiet, it must be said that Honda's machine is really quiet. When sitting on the car, it feels very cool, it is for those who do not want to blend in with the crowd, want to show a lot of personality.

Driving feeling: when a person with a height of about 1m8 sits on this car, when driving in the inner city, there is nothing to complain about, it is a small car, must say it is very flexible, you want Do whatever you want, you want to go into the corner, go slowly or want to bypass, it is very easy. With a car like this, driving is very light like an electric car. The car is very flexible, although this is a 125 cc clutch, but traveling in the inner city does not cause boredom, the gearbox is only 4-speed, but sometimes you can go up and down the gas station to create more feeling. strong.

It still gives a sense of excitement when driving a clutch car, but it does not bring the excitement because honestly, with a capacity of about 10 horsepower, it is just a car to go to. Play for fun, but also for excitement so that the speed cannot be met.

In short, going to the inner city is nothing to criticize, although the rear shock absorber is a monoshock, but it is still very quiet. But will not dare to go fast because the wheel has a small diameter and the body is also small, so it gives a feeling of not really peace of mind. This car, if you go with 2 people in the inner city, it probably won't be so bad, but maybe the person sitting in the back will have a bit of a hard time, and even the person in front will be quite hard because 2 People will have to sit tight together to be able to sit.

Going on the road, this car is 125 cc, it should have loaded a bit more. Of course, to accelerate to 80 km / h is not too difficult for this car, but its leap is not much, and of course riding a small wheeled vehicle like this if you go fast and jump fast, then perhaps it will not be possible to be reassured by a larger wheel, with a larger diameter. But anyway, it's not too difficult and it's not too tiring to sit alone. The 125 engine of this imported MSX must be said to be quiet, there is nothing to complain about the engine about the chassis, sure, smooth.

In Vietnam, this car is currently selling at the announced price of VND 50 million, but it is still an eternal problem for Honda that when it comes to geography, the price will be a bit higher, actually. This problem is also difficult to avoid because the demand is high but the supply is not enough, no matter how much a commodity increases, it is understandable. This is a stylish, beautiful car and there are quite a few young people looking for it, so the shortage of goods takes place so that the dealers will raise the price a bit, hopefully in the future there will be no more in Vietnam. this situation again. With a price of 50 million, those who are unique, like to be unique, have something of their own that does not mix with the crowd like other cars such as a popular scooter, or a higher hand clutch. like Honda Winer, MSX is also a very good choice for you.

Since June 25, Honda Vietnam has also distributed MSX 6 with 125 new colors: black blue, green black, red black and black orange, with the same price at 4, 49,9 million dong.
