Honda XR300 Rally Price and Bookings
The Honda XR300 Rally is priced at ₹2.08 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. Bookings for the motorcycle are now open through Honda BigWing dealerships.
The motorcycle has been designed to tackle rough terrain while also offering the practicality required for longer rides. Its styling follows the adventure-bike theme, while several changes distinguish it from the XR300L.
293.5cc Engine and 13-Litre Fuel Tank
Powering the Honda XR300 Rally is a 293.5cc air-and-oil-cooled engine, the same engine used in the XR300L. The unit is also shared with the Honda CB300F, where it produces 24.5 bhp of power and 25.9 Nm of torque.
Rather than being focused purely on high-speed performance, the XR300 Rally has been developed with adventure riding and touring in mind.
One of its significant upgrades is the 13-litre fuel tank. For comparison, the XR300L comes with a 7.8-litre tank. The larger capacity gives the Rally version a greater emphasis on longer-distance and adventure-oriented riding.
TFT Console and Honda RoadSync Connectivity
Honda has equipped the XR300 Rally with a TFT instrument console. Along with displaying the motorcycle’s essential information, the console supports smartphone connectivity.
The motorcycle can be paired with the Honda RoadSync app, allowing riders to access features such as turn-by-turn navigation. This connectivity can be particularly useful for riders travelling on unfamiliar routes during touring and adventure rides.
Traction Control and Switchable ABS
For additional control, the XR300 Rally comes with a Traction Control System. It is designed to help manage wheel spin when the motorcycle encounters slippery surfaces or areas with limited grip.
The bike also gets switchable ABS. Since braking requirements can differ depending on the riding surface, the ability to switch ABS settings gives riders greater control while tackling different types of terrain.
