Honda CLIQ Updates

Latest Updates
Friday, 13 January 2023 06:11 AM Despite the popularity and good reviews of the Honda Cliq, the scooter was unable to reach the sales target set by Honda. This led to the company deciding to discontinue the Cliq and not include it in its BS6 product line-up. The Cliq is no longer listed on the Honda website and the company has stopped production of the scooter. The discontinuation of the Cliq is a setback for Honda, as the scooter was well-received by customers.
Thursday, 16 April 2020 06:49 AM The Honda Cliq has been officially discontinued in India due to poor sales and the inability to meet the BS6 emission norms. The scooter was removed from Hondas official website, and the company has no plans to update it to BS6 standards. This decision was made as the Cliq failed to gain significant traction in the market, especially with other popular models like the Activa and Dio available. I think this was an expected move given the low demand.
Sunday, 15 March 2020 11:05 AM Honda had confirmed earlier that the Cliq would not be part of their BS6 era plans. Despite efforts to sell off the remaining units, the scooters sales remained low, leading to its eventual discontinuation. The Cliq was aimed at the rural and semi-urban markets but couldnt compete with other offerings. I believe the market was just too saturated for the Cliq to make a mark.
Friday, 15 December 2017 07:16 AM Honda Cliq won the 2018 NDTV CarandBike Awards for Scooter of the Year, showcasing its potential in the scooter segment. Despite this recognition, the Cliqs overall market performance was disappointing. I believe the award highlighted its capabilities, but it needed more to attract buyers.
Monday, 13 November 2017 08:43 AM The Honda Cliq crossed the 10,000 sales mark in India within less than four months of its launch. This was seen as a positive start, but the sales momentum did not sustain over time. The Cliq was based on the Activa and was aimed at maximizing utility for its users. I think the initial response was promising, but it didnt translate into long-term success.
Wednesday, 23 August 2017 12:04 AM Honda launched the Cliq in Tamil Nadu at a price of Rs. 44,524, positioning it as a utility scooter for rural and semi-urban areas. The Cliq was designed to offer comfort and convenience, but it ultimately failed to gain significant market share. I believe the design was practical, but it lacked the appeal of other Honda models.
Wednesday, 19 July 2017 09:31 AM The Honda Cliq was launched in Maharashtra at a price of Rs. 43,076, targeting the large two-wheeler market in the state. Maharashtra is known for its high scooter sales, and Honda aimed to capitalize on this with the Cliq. However, the scooters performance in the market was not as expected. I think the pricing was competitive, but it needed more to stand out.
Thursday, 22 June 2017 12:36 PM The Honda Cliq was designed to be an affordable and practical scooter, weighing just over 100 kg and featuring a low seat height, making it accessible for lady riders and those in congested city streets. It also came with CBS and AHO for enhanced safety. I think the focus on practicality was a good move, but it lacked the glamour of other scooters.
Thursday, 22 June 2017 12:43 AM The Cliqs engine was refined to offer excellent fuel economy, with a claimed mileage of 60 kmpl, making it one of the most economical 110cc scooters in the market. However, the small fuel tank capacity of 3.5 liters was a drawback. I believe the fuel efficiency was a strong point, but the tank size was a limitation.
Wednesday, 21 June 2017 06:11 PM The Honda Cliq was priced at Rs. 42,499 in Delhi and was launched as a rugged automatic scooter aimed at utilitarian customers. It featured a 109.19cc engine and various convenience features like a mobile charging socket and a luggage rack. I think the features were well thought out, but the execution fell short.
Wednesday, 21 June 2017 02:57 PM A comparison of the Honda Cliq with its siblings, the Activa and Dio, showed that while the Cliq had its strengths, it couldnt match the popularity of these established models. The Cliqs design and features were tailored for rural and semi-urban markets but didnt resonate widely. I believe it was a good attempt, but it needed more differentiation.
