The new Honda Vario 125 will reportedly come with the code K2VG. The entry level automatic scooter will most likely adopt the design of its big brother, the Honda Vario 160 with the code K2S. However, there are some spots that are said to be slightly different, so they are not identical.
Interestingly, there is also an opinion that the new Honda Vario 125 is not very different from the Vario 125 currently being marketed in Indonesia. Indeed, the information, the manufacturer will only make minor changes to the latest model.

Automotive page Greatbiker reported on the emergence of the new Honda Vario 125 in Indonesia since last month. According to the information on the page, the new Honda Vario 125 will use a lightweight frame previously installed on BEAT and Scoopy, namely the eSaF or Enhanced Smart Architecture Frame.
As for the specifications, the scooter is said to use the new Honda SH 125 and Lead 125 engines marketed in Thailand. Well, if that’s true, then the new Vario 125 will be equipped with an eSP + 124.8cc SOHC engine capable of producing 10.9hp and 11.7Nm of torque.
The new Vario 125 will reportedly be equipped with a number of excellent features such as an intelligent keyless system, an idle stop system or ISS, a new digital instrument cluster, a charging port for mobile phones and an anti-lock braking system. single channel (ABS).
However, again, these are just assumptions from various sources that detikOto collects. Well, to get a definitive answer, you can wait a few more days here.
Previously, detikOto asked PT AHM Marketing Director, Thomas Wijaya, about the possibility of launching a new Vario 125 in Indonesia. Unfortunately, Thomas’s response seems normative and he doesn’t even really respond.
“For the launch of the new Honda Vario 125, wait, okay? We will study it,” said Thomas.
