As stylish as it sounds, the new Honda Grazia looks urban and upmarket. While the engine capacity has not been confirmed, the model is likely to draw power from a 125 cc motor (shared with the Honda Activa 125), while the sharp lines lend an edgy appearance to the model. The spy shots also show a wider looking apron and foot-board on the scooter.

The scooter will also come with a revised instrument console with a digital display, slightly different from the current set of units seen on Honda scooters. A small storage space will be available left-hand side. Also, expect to see the option of USB charging keeping up with modern times.
