2012 Vision 50
Fun mobility
Press release date: 8 November 2011
Model updates: All-new model; 50cc scooter with advanced safety features; available with 14" or 16" wheels; chassis and engine related to Vision 110.
1. Model overview
The 2012 Vision 50 has been created to offer reliable, fun mobility at an attractively low price. As a machine intended for daily use by a huge range of customers, qualities such as durability, dependability, safety and ease of use were considered vitally important during development. With a reliable and efficient fuel-injected engine, a stable and easy to ride chassis, the advanced safety of Honda's Combined Braking System and extensive storage space, the Vision 50 represents a smart and reassuring option in the 50cc scooter market.
Central to the Vision 50's strong performance and superb fuel economy is its single-cylinder four-stroke engine. The machine can cover 52 kilometres on a single litre of fuel in normal use, giving a range of over 286km from the 5.5-litre fuel tank. Such a generous fuel range contributes to the machine's convenience and ease of use, as do the large internal storage space, electric start function, stylish instrument display and ergonomically refined seating positions for both rider and passenger.
Despite its advanced specification, the scooter has been designed to be affordable by a wide range of customers. Honda's purchasing strategy allows it to use the most appropriate suppliers throughout the world; two machines were also developed in tandem -- the Vision 50 and the more powerful Vision 110. As a result both scooters balance low cost with high quality.
The Vision 50 builds on a proud heritage. The first Honda scooter, the 1954 Juno K, featured a range of advanced technology and materials, and was followed four years later by the revolutionary four-stroke Super Cub. With more than 60 million manufactured worldwide, the Super Cub is the best-selling motor vehicle in history.
2. Key features
2.1 Engine
Convenient four-stroke power NEW
The tough four-stroke engine with PGM-FI fuel injection and electric start offers reliability, ease of use and fuel efficiency.
2.2 Styling
Practical and stylish NEW
The sleek, attractive body design offers comfortable seating for two, a generous storage compartment under the seat and a large 5.5-litre fuel tank, giving a range of over 286 kilometres between fill-ups.
2.3 Wheels
14" or 16" wheel options NEW
The Vision 50 with 14" wheels offer great value for money and agility. For a small premium the 16" front wheel version gives more secure handling on rough roads, particularly the cobbled surfaces found in many European cities.
2.4 Brakes
Combined Braking System NEW
The Vision 50 boasts Honda's Combined Braking System (CBS), which links the front and rear brakes to provide swift, stable braking regardless of rider experience or road conditions.
3. Model details
3.1 Engine
Reliable four-stroke technology
Honda's long expertise in four stroke technology has been used to design a 50cm3 single-cylinder engine that delivers both efficiency and performance, with minimal harmful emissions. The unit is also lightweight and compact, meaning the chassis and body of the scooter could be designed without compromise. The Vision 50's smooth and refined power delivery is strong enough for the rider to feel secure and confident in traffic, with minimal noise and vibration.
Fuel-efficient, low emissions
By choosing air-cooling for the single-cylinder engine, the weight and complexity of radiators and a coolant pump have been eliminated, while the four-stroke technology offers efficiency, ease of use and impressive quietness. A focus on friction reduction, combined with a Programmed Fuel Injection System (PGM-FI) has yielded outstanding efficiency for a typical fuel consumption figure of 52km/l.
