Honda CB300F Flex-Fuel Launched: Eco-Friendly 300cc Beast with Ethanol Power & Smart Features

Honda has taken a bold step towards green mobility in India with the launch of its all-new Honda CB300F Flex-Fuel, the country’s first 300cc flex-fuel motorcycle. Designed for eco-conscious riders and performance seekers, this bike runs on a fuel blend of up to 85% ethanol (E85), making it a future-ready solution amidst rising fuel prices and emissions concerns.

Performance and Engine

The CB300F Flex-Fuel is powered by a 293.5cc single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine mated to a 6-speed gearbox. It churns out an impressive 24.5 PS of power and 25.9 Nm of torque, delivering strong low and mid-range performance for both city and highway rides. Honda’s slipper-assist clutch and Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) provide extra safety and smooth gear transitions, even under challenging conditions.

Ethanol Compatibility & FlexTech

Thanks to Honda’s FlexTech system, this bike supports E20 to E85 fuel blends, making it a pioneer in India’s ethanol-powered two-wheeler segment. The bike includes an Intelligent Ethanol Indicator that warns the rider if the ethanol blend exceeds the safe limit, ensuring maximum engine protection.

Premium Features & Design

The CB300F Flex-Fuel doesn’t compromise on tech. It features full-LED lighting, a digital LCD display with brightness adjustment, gear-position indicator, Bluetooth connectivity for calls and navigation, and a handy USB charging port. Its aggressive naked streetfighter design is enhanced by golden USD front forks and sporty graphics, making it stand out from the crowd.

Comfort, Suspension & Safety

With a kerb weight of just 153 kg and a 14.1-litre fuel tank, the CB300F strikes a perfect balance between agility and range. The suspension setup includes golden USD forks at the front and a preload-adjustable monoshock at the rear. For braking duties, the bike gets a 276 mm front disc and a 220 mm rear disc, both backed by dual-channel ABS for enhanced safety.

Mileage & Price

On the mileage front, the CB300F Flex offers an impressive ARAI-claimed fuel efficiency of 30 kmpl, with real-world figures often crossing 35 kmpl once the engine settles in. The bike is priced at ₹1.70 lakh ex-showroom, and on-road pricing may reach around ₹1.93 lakh in cities like Ahmedabad.

Final Verdict

If you’re looking for a stylish, performance-driven bike that also cares for the environment, the Honda CB300F Flex-Fuel is a standout choice. With ethanol compatibility, premium features, and Honda’s trusted engineering, this motorcycle is future-ready and built for both thrill and sustainability.
