Honda X-ADV 2020

Honda has done it again. The new X-ADV continues to present itself as a versatile work tool that attracts a lot of attention. Improvements have been made in the right places to make it more accessible, more practical, but also more refined. While its extravagant concept will always attract sceptics, proud owners swear by it and can enjoy thousands of kilometres in the saddle.

Improved drivetrain

More powerful sound

More accessible than predecessor

High level of comfort
