Honda has introduced updates to its quarter-litre sportbike, the CBR250RR, for 2024 in Malaysia. These changes primarily enhance the engine, resulting in a slight power increase.

Engine and Performance Upgrades

The 2024 CBR250RR features a refined 249cc twin-cylinder engine. It now delivers 42hp at 13,000rpm and 25Nm of torque at 11,000rpm. This update offers a marginal boost of around 1.34hp, while the torque output remains consistent.

Suspension and Features

The CBR250RR is equipped with a 37mm Showa Separate Function Big Piston fork at the front and a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear. These enhancements ensure a smoother ride and improved handling.

Additional Features

This sportbike includes a blue backlit LCD dash and an all-LED lighting system, providing a modern and sleek appearance. With a fuel tank capacity of 14.5 litres, the CBR250RR weighs 189kg, balancing performance and fuel efficiency.

Pricing and Market Position

Priced at RM28000 in Malaysia, which converts to nearly Rs 5 lakh, the CBR250RR positions itself as a premium offering. Due to its high price tag, it is unlikely that Honda will introduce this model to the Indian market.

The 2024 Honda CBR250RR updates enhance its performance and features, maintaining its reputation as a top-tier quarter-litre sportbike. Although its entry into the Indian market remains uncertain, its premium appeal continues to attract enthusiasts in Malaysia.
