Yet there is an official PCX sport, maybe not as nice as the one above, but I can't find this sport model on a Thai retail website...or am I not searching correctly?

For example Honda Brazil has it, but seems to be just about the color: https://www.honda.com.br/motos/pcx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brunolem Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Meanwhile, has anyone tried the hybrid version? Is it worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never rode it, only seen reviews, in general it seems to be: The electric motor assists when accelerating, but is limited to 3 seconds Idling stop shuts the engine off after 0.5 seconds instead of 3 Is it reasonable to buy it? I don't think so Would i buy it? If i were to buy a PCX i might spend the extra 16k for the hybrid version, while being fully aware that it's just for a bit of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the whole point of hybrid was to charge a battery while the engine is burning gasoline, and once in a while to switch on the battery and thus avoid burning gasoline???

Yes, the engine is always running when you are driving (at least according to the reviews that i watched). Imho it should use slightly more fuel than the standard version, because the energy is converted, but maybe they can compensate this by charging the battery using increased engine breaking.
