BETTER IN EVERY WAY
Scooters are such a perfect solution for so many of our transportation needs. You can park them just about anywhere. Zip through congestion. They’re affordable, and get great gas mileage. And when you’re on a Honda PCX, you get all of that combined with Honda engineering and quality. And here’s the best news of all: For 2021, the PCX is even better, because at Honda we take our scooters as seriously as everything else we build. That’s why we gave the PCX a new, larger engine, a new frame structure, and wrapped it all up in some tasty new styling too. And now the engine features a four-valve design too, making it cleaner and more economical. Around town or just cruising on a weekend, the new 2021 PCX isn’t just another scooter—it’s a premium Honda experience.

Comfort
- RIDER COMFORT: The long, plush seat is even more comfortable than it looks. Plus, give your copilot an incredible view with the incredible stepped passenger section.
Convenience
- UNDER-SEAT STORAGE: Flip the seat open and you have room for a full-face helmet or an evening’s worth of groceries. The main compartment locks for security and is weather-resistant, too. With a full 30 liters (nearly eight gallons), it’s big enough for everyday use.
- EASY TO PARK: The PCX 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.
- ELECTRIC START: Turn the key, press the button and the PCX’s fuel-injected engine fires right up and runs smooth, even in colder weather.
- FRESH STYLE: With the PCX, you enjoy world-class style and premium features, and we’ve freshened it up even more for 2021. Check out the new, large, central LED headlight, integrated LED turn signals, and easy-to-read LCD instrumentation that’s wider this year, all which help give the PCX a premium look and feel.
- THE "X" FACTOR: Take a look at the PCX’s “X”-shaped tail lamp. It used multi-optics technology, emitting bright light in an eye-catching design.
- FUEL CAPACITY: The PCX is incredibly fuel efficient–its large 2.1-liter fuel tank means you can go even longer and ride even further between fill-ups.
Performance
- BIGGER 4-VALVE ENGINE: This year we gave the PCX a whole new engine. First off, it’s bigger, now displacing 156.9cc. The eSP+ technology (enhanced smart power) uses a new four-valve design with a new bore/stroke ratio specially designed to lower emissions and provide responsive performance.
- PGM FUEL INJECTION: The PCX features liquid cooling and Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) for great performance in all traffic conditions. Plus the PCX offers impressive fuel efficiency.
- HYDRAULIC CAM-CHAIN ADJUSTER: Another internal engine upgrade this year, the hydraulic cam-chain adjustment is totally automatic, eliminating a routine maintenance point. It’s just another way Honda engineers make the PCX even easier to own.
- ROLLER BEARING CRANK: The PCX engine uses special, low-friction roller bearings in the crankshaft, including a new design for 2021. It all helps give you a smooth-running powerplant that gets great mileage too.
Technology
- 12-VOLT CHARGING PORT: The PCX features an integral USB-type socket in the fairing storage compartment, making it super easy to keep your personal electronics charged up while you’re on the go.
- FRAME: Great handling starts with a solid chassis design, and that’s where our latest PCX really shines. It uses a duplex-cradle design rather than the more common “underbone” style. Plus, for 2021 the frame has been reengineered for even better handling and rider comfort.
- V-MATIC TRANSMISSION: With the Honda V-Matic automatic transmission, just start the engine, twist the throttle and go. That means no shifting, ever—you 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.
