Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) has expanded its mid-size motorcycle portfolio with the launch of the all-new CB350C Special Edition. Bookings are now open, and deliveries will begin from the first week of October 2025 through the company’s BigWing premium dealerships. Priced at Rs 2,01,900 (ex-showroom, Bengaluru), the new Special Edition aims to offer a refreshed take on Honda’s retro-classic 350cc lineup.
Positioning and Identity
With this launch, Honda has rebranded the CB350 as the CB350C, strengthening its identity among classic motorcycle enthusiasts. The motorcycle gets a new CB350C badge and a dedicated Special Edition sticker on the fuel tank, creating a distinct identity within the segment.
The CB350C Special Edition features new striped graphics across the tank, front and rear fenders, enhancing its premium and bold appeal. Additional touches such as a chrome rear grab rail and a choice of black or brown seats further elevate the motorcycle’s retro-inspired design. It will be offered in two colour options – Rebel Red Metallic and Matt Dune Brown.
The motorcycle continues to combine classic styling with modern features. It gets a digital-analogue instrument cluster with Honda Smartphone Voice Control System (HSVCS) for navigation and notifications, along with an assist & slipper clutch, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) and dual-channel ABS.
Engine and Performance
Power comes from a 348.36cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, BSVI OBD2B E20-compliant PGM-FI engine that delivers 15.5 kW at 5,500 rpm and 29.5 Nm of torque at 3,000 rpm, paired with a 5-speed gearbox.
