== Overview ==
Honda PCX 150







The 2015/16 PCX150 sports a new sense of style,
highlighted by its new dual-headlight design. Inside, a larger fuel tank
makes it even more practical. In between, its automatic transmission and
great fuel efficiency make it a smart choice. Want to know more? Just click
on the hotspots above for more detail.
The best-selling motorized two-wheeler in Europe is a
Honda PCX. An interesting fact, given that Europeans know a thing or two about
scooters. They have long recognized the user-friendly convenience, low cost of
operation, low carbon footprint and the high fun factor that scooters bring to
everyday transportation. Well it seems more and more Canadian city dwellers are
figuring out that scooters may just be the perfect solution to high fuel prices,
the high cost of parking and ever-increasing urban gridlock. A quick look at the
changes to the 2015 PCX150 and it's easy to understand why it continues to be
held in such high regard both in Europe and in Canada. Starting with the
exterior styling, the 2015 PCX150 offers a more modern look while retaining the
slim proportions that allow it to slip so easily through traffic. The new
bodywork features full LED lighting that not only improves conspicuity but
reduces electrical load on the alternator, thereby improving efficiency.
Additional low-friction technologies utilized in the engine work with new
low-rolling resistance tires to improve fuel economy even further. With fuel
tank capacity increased by 2.1 liters to 8 liters and its new more efficient
design, a 2015 PCX150 may be a rare sight at the pumps. Everyday convenience
features now include a 12V power outlet, a hazard warning light system, a
digital clock, a fuel consumption meter, a larger left hand fairing pocket that
can accommodate a water bottle and a sprung seat hinge that keeps the seat open
when accessing the 25 litre underseat storage area.



Key features
The lightweight and compact liquid-cooled
SOHC two-valve 153 cc engine powering the PCX150 offers high
durability with excellent performance, plus quiet, smooth
operation and reduced CO2 production.
Durable tubular steel underbone frame features a short 1,315 mm
wheelbase and optimized steering geometry to provide nimble
handling and a stable, comfortable experience for rider and
passenger.
An advanced Combined Braking System links the front and rear
wheels for balanced stopping when pedestrians or other road
users do the unexpected.
Sporty but elegant styling is never out of place and is
complimented by full LED lighting for 2015.
Handy glove compartment up front allows quick access to the
essentials gum, sun glasses, cell phone, wallet or even a bottle
of water.

Power To The People.
With its 150cc liquid-cooled four-stroke
engine, the PCX150 is great for urban commutes, trips around
town, and is freeway-legal, should you need to head onto the
highway.
More Fuel Range.
How far can you go on a tank of gas? With
a PCX150, even further this year. With its great fuel efficiency
rating and a bigger gas tank in 2015, the PCX150 makes even more
sense.
New Lights, New Look.
New dual front LED headlights along with
new bodywork really make the PCX150 stand out. Who says
practical cant also be stylish?
Engine/Drivetrain
The lightweight and compact liquid-cooled
SOHC two-valve 153 cc engine powering the PCX150 offers high
durability with excellent performance, plus quiet, smooth
operation and reduced CO2 production.
The engine layout is built around a host
of low-friction technologies working in harmony. An offset
cylinder reduces friction caused by contact between piston and
bore efficiently transmitting combustion energy to the
crankshaft. A spiny cast-iron sleeve  with tiny surface
extensions  reduces distortion of the inner bore diameter
allowing lowered tension in the piston rings, reducing friction.
A shell-type needle bearing is used for the rocker arm shaft
while small and light rollers work in conjunction with carefully
chosen cam profiles and low tension valve springs to minimize
valvetrain friction.
A compact combustion chamber and PGM-FI
fuel injection system optimize burning rate, tailoring torque
characteristics to suit the rpm ranges typically used in urban
situations.
A compact high-efficiency radiator 
integrated into the exterior of the right-side crankcase 
employs a small, light fan reducing frictional losses, lowering
drag.
The electronically controlled brushless
ACG starter is an integrated component mounted directly on the
end of the crankshaft. Serving as both starter motor and
alternator it spins the engine directly when starting
eliminating noise from starter gear engagement..
A V-Matic wide-ratio continuously variable transmission employs
a quiet, durable drive belt, manufactured from high-elasticity
rubber, delivering efficient drive to the rear wheel.
Rolling resistance within the transmission
unit is reduced by the use of three low-friction main bearings,
each specifically designed to deal with the loads it
individually receives..
Chassis/Suspension
Durable tubular steel underbone frame
features a short 1,315 mm wheelbase and optimized steering
geometry to provide nimble handling and a stable, comfortable
experience for rider and passenger.
The low-slung fuel tank is mounted under
the floorboards to keep the center of gravity low, enhancing
maneuverability around urban obstacles.
A tight 2m turning radius, allows easy
manoeuvring in tricky spaces, while 5-spoke 14 cast aluminum
wheels add stability and rider confidence. Special Dunlop tires
 with a compound designed to reduce drag  are fitted and
contribute toward improved fuel efficiency.
A commanding view of the road from the
broad, plush seat helps you choose the best path through urban
congestion.
An advanced Combined Braking System links
the front and rear wheels for balanced stopping when pedestrians
or other road users do the unexpected.
Additional Features
Sporty but elegant styling is never out of
place and is complimented by full LED lighting for 2015.
Protective bodywork sweeps back into generous floorboards for
the feet, that help shield the rider from urban grime.
Convenient, spacious under-seat storage area easily accommodates
a laptop or most full-face helmets.
Opening both the seat and fuel lid is via one-touch switches.
The seat features a sprung hinge so it stays up when open.
A central console presents all the information within a neat,
concise design. Speed is displayed by a luminous needle moving
around the outside of the LCD panel, which contains an odometer,
trip meter, fuel gauge, plus the new for 2015 fuel efficiency
meter and clock.
Handy glove compartment up front allows quick access to the
essentials gum, sun glasses, cell phone, wallet or even a bottle
of water.
12V power outlet in the glove compartment allows convenient
charging of personal electronics.
A hazard function that flashes all four turn signals provides
additional conspicuity when needed.
Easy To Park
The PCX150 gives you the choice of both a
sidestand and a centerstand. That makes it easy to park for a
fast dash into a store (the sidestand) or when you need to park
it upright in a tighter space (the centerstand). With a lot of
other scooters, you only get one or the other.
PGM Fuel-Injected Engine
The PCX150 features liquid cooling and
Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) for great performance in all
traffic conditions. Plus the PCX150 offers some impressive fuel
efficiency
Increased Fuel Capacity
The PCX150 already offers good fuel
efficiency. But this year weve given it a new, bigger fuel
tank, and that means you can go even longer and ride even
further between fill-ups.
Fresh New Style
A glance will tell you that the 2015
PCX150 is a new machine. Look at the way that new bodywork flows
together, and check out the color options.
Dual Headlights
One of the first things youll notice
about the new 2015 PCX150 is its dual LED headlights. In
addition to being a big element in the PCX150s bold new style,
the dual headlights provide ample lighting and aid visibility.
12-Volt Accessory Adaptor
The PCX150 Integral 12-volt adaptor has a
convenient charging point for personal electronics.
Electric Start
Turn the key, press the button and the
PCX150s fuel-injected engine fires right up, runs smooth, even
in colder weather.
V-Matic Transmission
With the Honda V-Matic automatic
transmission, just start the engine, twist the gas and go. The
V-Matic means no shifting, everyou concentrate on the road
ahead and enjoy the ride! The V-Matic is a continuously variable
design, so you'll never feel it lurch from one gear to another.
Smooth.
Under-Seat Storage
Flip that seat open and you have room for
a full-face helmet and or an evenings worth of groceries. The
main compartment locks for security and is weather-resistant,
too. There's even a second compartment in the dash for your
mobile phone, wallet or MP3 player.
Rider Comfort
That long, plush seat does more than just
look comfortableit's probably nicer than that sofa in your
living room. An improved seat cushion this year makes it even
better, while the stepped passenger section gives your copilot a
better view.
