2024 Honda NAVI: TWIST AND GO!
Introducing the 2024 Honda NAVI…
As the most affordable and approachable road bike in Honda’s powersports lineup, the Navi is all about opening the door for new riders to experience the freedom and enjoyment that can only be found on two wheels. With its compact size, light overall weight and automatic CVT transmission, the Navi makes developing the core motorcycle-riding skills simple and unintimidating. In just three years on the U.S. market, the Navi has become one of the top-selling motorcycles in the industry, thanks in part to its popularity among Gen Z riders (highlighted in the photo and video content from Honda’s collaboration with integrated marketing agency Hakuhodo). The Navi’s recipe of a super-low MSRP, gas-sipping performance and long maintenance intervals make it incredibly practical and accessible to almost any customer.

Updated Grom Headlines Honda miniMOTO/Scooter Announcement
- Iconic Grom gets a fresh new look for the 2025 model year
- Affordable, approachable Navi continues to win over new riders
- ADV160, Ruckus, Metropolitan scooters return for 2025
American Honda revealed today that the Grom—one of the powersports industry’s most popular models—gets an exciting aesthetic makeover for the 2025 model year. In the same announcement, Honda confirmed the return of several other models that are small in size but big in fun: the incredibly affordable Navi is back, offered in a host of fun new colors, while three popular scooters—the “City Adventure” ADV160, the industrial Ruckus and the Euro-influenced Metropolitan—are again being offered for 2025.
“When it comes to diminutive powersports models, Honda consistently outpaces the competition,” said Colin Miller, Assistant Manager of Public Relations at American Honda. “There’s no better example of that than the Grom, and we know that the enjoyable, sporty vibe of this gen-4 refresh will be a hit with our customers. Following in the Grom’s miniMOTO tradition is the Navi, which has quickly captured the hearts of American customers looking for a bike that’s easy to ride and easy on the wallet. On the scooter front, the ADV160, Ruckus and Metropolitan all possess the mix of practicality and fun that this category demands. Add it all up, and the five models in this announcement are a reminder that at least sometimes, smaller can be better.”
The updated Grom and other Honda miniMOTO models will be on display this weekend during the Barber Small Bore event at Barber Motorsports Park in Birmingham, Alabama.
2024 Honda NAVI Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits
DESIGN / STYLING
For styling inspiration, one could hardly do better than Honda’s very own Grom—the most successful miniMOTO on the market, and one of the best-selling models in the powersports industry. As a result, the Navi boasts a sporty motorcycle look and feel, with the rider’s legs straddling the fuel tank and feet placed on side-mounted pegs, rather than the scooter-style step-through/floorboard design. The rear brake is actuated by a foot lever on the right, as opposed to a left hand-lever as with scooters.
That said, the engine is located at the rear like a scooter, freeing up space in front of the seat for a convenient, lockable storage pod—perfect for stashing textbooks, a jacket or a water bottle. While the frame, wheels, suspension, engine and exhaust are all black, they’re offset by boldly colored side panels, with shapes somewhat evocative of Honda’s legendary CRF family of dirt bikes. The prominent headlight has a hexagonal shape.
Like the Grom, the Navi’s design makes it a blank canvas for customization, begging owners to update it with personal touches from the long list of offerings the aftermarket has available for Honda miniMOTO machines.
The simple-but-functional instrumentation package includes a large, easy-to-read analog speedometer and a useful fuel gauge.
For the 2024 model year, the Navi is now available in not only standard, non-painted White, but also three new painted colors.
ENGINE / DRIVETRAIN
While the looks are all motorcycle, the engine is all scooter, meaning it’s rear-mounted and requires no shifting. In fact, the smooth-running, quiet power plant comes from the acclaimed Activa (a hugely popular model in scooter-crazy Asia), and touts Honda’s super-efficient eSP friction-reducing technology, delivering excellent fuel economy, with an incredible Honda-tested fuel mileage rating of 110.3 mpg.
This obviously makes for an extremely affordable cost of operation, especially when one considers Honda’s legendary durability and dependability. Those attributes—along with safety and convenience—were key priorities with the Navi. The engine is a fan-cooled 109.2cc, single-cylinder, two-valve, overhead-camshaft four-stroke that is tilted forward at 80º. Bore and stroke are 55.0mm and 55.6mm, respectively, and the compression ratio is 9.5:1. The Navi delivers ample usable power for accelerating from stops and overtaking traffic, and it’s ready to provide miles and miles of worry-free passage.
Induction is via a 16mm carburetor, and power is transferred via Honda’s proven, efficient, easy-to-maintain V-Matic® automatic transmission to a reliable belt drive. With no clutch lever or shift lever, vehicle operation is simple and intuitive, so riders can focus on navigating streets and neighborhoods while enjoying the ride.
CHASSIS / SUSPENSION
The Navi frame design utilizes the engine as a stressed member and is carefully engineered to offer excellent handling feel with superb stability—also thanks in part to the relatively long 50.6-inch wheelbase. Ride comfort is exceptional.
A sturdy 26.8mm inverted telescopic fork is matched with a side-mounted single rear shock absorber to provide a smooth, comfortable, planted ride, and the pressed-steel wheels are sized 12 inches and 10 inches front and rear, respectively, to confidently handle road imperfections. Slowing and stopping duties are performed by 130mm drum-type front-and-rear brakes, and a parking brake is actuated by a lever on the left of the handlebar.
The seat height is a comfortable 30.0 inches, and the seat narrows toward the front, making it easy for most riders to get both feet on the ground at stops. A grab rail at the back of the seat provides a secure grip for the passenger.
Fuel capacity is .9 gallons, delivering surprising range thanks to the Navi’s fuel-stingy nature. Fully fueled and read to ride, the Navi weighs just 234 pounds, making it a breeze to maneuver through traffic, push into a tight parking spot or load on an RV bumper rack.
Transferable one-year, unlimited-mileage limited warranty; extended coverage available with a Honda Protection Plan.
- Meets current EPA standards.
- Models sold in California meet current CARB standards and may differ slightly due to emissions equipment.
