Honda X-ADV
rn rnrnInnovations in the design of bikes and scooters have not seen much growth over the past few years. It is simply because nothing much can be changed from the basic structure of the vehicle as changing mean the bike may lose its maneuverability and comfort while riding. When things seem bland for a long-time Honda took this as a challenge and came up with a design that made sure it made some eyes turn. Honda launched the X-ADV in 2018 and it has been on the talks since then. Honda claims this to be a scooter but the specification and looks of this tell otherwise.rnWhat makes this different from the rest?
