Having updated the Activa 125 and the SP125, Honda has launched the 2025 version of the SP160. As part of the 2025 updates, the SP160 brings in a new 4.2-inch TFT cluster (with Bluetooth connectivity), revised styling, and a USB-C charging port. The 162.71cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine stands unchanged but complies with upcoming OBD2B emission norms. Prices start at Rs 1.22 lakh for the single-disc variant and go up to Rs 1.28 lakh (both prices, ex-showroom) for the dual-disc version. With this, the price increase of the updated Honda SP160 ranges from Rs 3,000 to around Rs 4,600, depending on the variant.
Styling-wise, the changes at the front end are less noticeable, but Honda did tweak the headlamp to look more sharp and angular. Honda has also introduced new colour options for the updated model: Radiant Red Metallic, Pearl Igneous Black, Pearl Deep Ground Gray, and Athletic Blue Metallic.
