Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has introduced the 2018 Aviator 110 cc scooter in the country with prices starting at Rs. 55,157 (ex-showroom,Delhi). The Honda Aviator is the two-wheeler maker's more consistently selling offering in the 110 cc segment, having been around for almost a decade now. With the 2018 edition, Honda has improved the scooter's feature list even further with additional equipment on offer. The powertrain though remains the same on the Honda Aviator with the power coming from the 110 cc engine that is shared with the Honda Activa in the company's line-up. Unlike the latter though, the Aviator is positioned as a premium offering in this space, while the overall bold and stylish design gives it a strong presence on roads. The 2018 Honda Aviator is available in three variants which are standard, alloy drum and alloy disc.
Honda Aviator Looks

The side panels are large and extend well into the taillight that gets a clear lens cluster and a massive single-piece grab rail. The updated Honda Aviator also comes with a new and more durable metal muffler protector finished in gloss black, while the alloy wheels are finished in brushed silver. The plastic panels along with the seat are finished in a contrast brown shade.
