Honda Adv150
The Honda Adv150 has a top speed of ~115 km/h, produces ~15.1 hp and weighs 134 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
The Honda ADV150 was introduced in 2019 as a small-displacement adventure-styled scooter, building on the popularity of the X-ADV and targeting urban commuters who wanted rugged aesthetics with practical scooter functionality. It was notably the first model in Honda's ADV sub-brand at the 150cc class, featuring a semi-knobby tire setup and raised suspension for light off-road capability. It became particularly popular in Southeast Asian markets such as Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines, where it was positioned as a premium urban-adventure scooter.

What Buyers Should Know
Honda Reliability Record
The ADV150 uses Honda's proven eSP (Enhanced Smart Power) 149cc engine, known for low maintenance and long service life. Owners commonly report 30,000+ km with minimal issues beyond routine servicing.
Watch for These Issues
Some owners report wind noise and vibration from the tall windscreen at highway speeds, and the underbody storage is smaller than competitors. Early models also had minor fuel injector clogging if left sitting with stale fuel.
Strong Resale Value
The ADV150 holds resale value well due to Honda's brand reputation and the growing popularity of adventure-style scooters. Used units typically retain 70–80% of their value within the first two years.
Generations & Specs by Year
Initial release; 149cc eSP engine, 29mm telescopic forks, USB charger, underseat storage, adventure styling.
Used Buyer Review
"Smart city commuter, but don't mistake adventure styling for adventure capability."
$3,500-$4,800 usedThe ADV150 is Honda's answer to a question nobody knew they were asking — and it works surprisingly well. It's not trying to be a real adventure bike, but that 149cc eSP engine pulls cleanly through city traffic, the ground clearance handles broken pavement and the occasional dirt lot without drama, and the underseat storage actually fits a half-face helmet. Honda build quality means you're unlikely to find a neglected example that's genuinely broken, which matters when shopping used. That said, know what you're buying. Highway speeds above 70mph feel genuinely unpleasant — wind blast, engine strain, the whole package. The suspension is soft and wallows if you push hard through corners. Used prices held stubbornly high through 2022-23, so don't overpay just because it says Honda. Check the drive belt condition immediately — it's the one consumable that gets ignored and costs real money to replace.
