Honda VISION 50
[Click on Title to open/close information]
Introduction
The 2012 Vision 50 has been created to offer reliable, fun mobility at an attractively low price. As a machine intended for daily use by a huge range of customers, qualities such as durability, dependability, safety and ease of use were considered vitally important during development. With a reliable and efficient fuel-injected engine, a stable and easy to ride chassis, the advanced safety of Honda’s Combined Braking System (CBS) and extensive storage space, the Vision 50 represents a smart and reassuring option in the 50cc scooter market.
Central to the Vision 50’s strong performance and superb fuel economy is its single-cylinder four-stroke engine. The machine can offer figures of up to146.9mpg in normal use, giving a range of over 177 miles from the 5.5-litre fuel tank. Such a generous fuel range contributes to the machine’s convenience and ease of use, as do the large internal storage space, electric start function, stylish instrument display and ergonomically refined seating positions for both rider and passenger.
Despite its advanced specification, the scooter has been designed to be affordable by a wide range of customers. Honda’s purchasing strategy allows it to use the most appropriate suppliers throughout the world; two machines were also developed in tandem – the Vision 50 and the more powerful Vision 110. As a result both scooters balance low cost with high quality.
The Vision 50 builds on a proud heritage. The first Honda scooter, the 1954 Juno K, featured a range of advanced technology and materials, and was followed four years later by the revolutionary four-stroke Super Cub. With more than 60 million manufactured worldwide, the Super Cub is the best-selling motor vehicle in history.
