Honda Vietnam (HVN) rolled out a new version of the Honda Rebel 500 on Thursday in Viet Nam.

The model has quickly gained the trust of customers who are in love with the combination of a classic, timeless look and the forward-looking, contemporary style of a cruiser.

The bike impresses owners with three new colours (black red, dark grey, and rough black) which not only create a fresh, unique look but also highlight the ­­throwback, classical features of the model.

New Rebel 500s are equipped with a dual-channel anti-lock braking system to enhance the driving ­experience for users on every ­journey. The bike’s speedometer is equipped with a blue-backlight LCD screen, which is a glorious ode to the bike’s ­reductionist design allowing riders to easily observe the necessary ­information.

The new version of the Rebel 500, imported from Thailand, is available at Honda Motor shops at the retail price of VND180.8 million ($7,533), VAT included. — VNS
