HONDA CG 160 2022 in celebration of 45 years of production

Since Honda CG began to be manufactured in Brazil, more than 13 million units of the model have come out of the production lines at Honda's factory in Manaus, AM. An incomparable success story, which confirms the correctness of decisions made almost half a century ago, when Honda chose to produce locally rather than just importing its bikes here.

Present in the country as an importer since 1971, in five years in Brazil, Honda realized that it was possible to implement here a philosophy rooted in the company since its foundation: think globally, act locally.

This initiative resulted in the manufacture of the pioneer Honda CG 125 and its eight subsequent generations, which among them have an enviable aspect in common: the CG has always been the market leader, preferred among all motorcycles sold in Brazil.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Brazilian learned to ride a motorcycle with the CG, a model that remains, year after year, the favorite regardless of the version, from the entry-level Start model to the admired Titan, passing through the practical Fan and the professional Cargo.

Constantly perfected over its many years of production, putting the very first CG side by side with the current one impresses: technological evolution is evident, but it is even more surprising to see that, in essence, the original formula remains the same. CG is a success and the reason has always been, and continues to be, its reliability, strength, economy and an unbeatable cost-benefit ratio, in addition to the lowest depreciation rate in the market.

Versions for 2022 remain four. The CG 160 Start brings a new design to the instrument panel frame and front fairing, with three color options. The CG 160 Fan and CG Cargo also received a new panel frame, new headlight fairing and redesigned internal and external tank sides. For Cargo, the color option is only white, while for Fan the color options are three.

Ergonomics, always the object of special attention on Hondas in general, is highlighted in CG. Being the most used model for professional purposes, the extended periods at the handlebars demanded the study of an ideal riding position. Handlebars, pedals and seat offer a reference position, in which the ease of riding is combined with comfort. In the CG 160 Cargo version, a robust luggage compartment, capable of supporting up to 20 kg, is standard equipment.

• Air-cooled OHC single cylinder engine, two overhead valves
• Valve control with roller rocker arms
• FlexOne System (ethanol and gasoline)
• Diamond-type chassis, stamped steel
• CBS Brakes - Combined Braking System

The 4-stroke single-cylinder engine with overhead valve control system OHC (Over Head Camshaft) is common to the Cargo, Fan and Titan versions. It has an exact 162.7 cm3, and generates the maximum power of 15.1 hp (ethanol) and 14.9 hp (gasoline) at 8,000 rpm. The maximum torque is 1.54 kgf.m (ethanol) and 1.40 kgf.m (petrol), at 7,000 rpm. The PGM-FI electronic injection feed system incorporates FlexOne technology (Fan, Cargo and Titan), which supports the use of ethanol and gasoline in different proportions. On the CG 160 Start, the PGM-FI system only admits the use of gasoline in the engine, which maintains the same power and torque characteristics of the FlexOne models when fed with this type of fuel.
