Honda Rebel 300
The Honda Rebel 300 is an entry-level casual cruiser powered by a 286cc liquid-cooled engine producing around 30 hp. The engine was previously seen on the Honda CB300R and is paired with a six-speed gearbox. The Rebel 300 will be available in two variants, including an E-Clutch version.
The E-Clutch variant uses electronic actuators to operate the clutch automatically, allowing riders to shift gears without using the clutch lever. The clutch can still be operated manually when needed, and its settings can be adjusted through the TFT display. Plus, it comes with a low-slung bobber design with a teardrop-shaped fuel tank, round LED headlamp, two-piece seat and short exhaust. Features include a circular TFT instrument display with Honda RoadSync connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation, along with LED lighting and dual-channel ABS.

Questions you may find useful
Hi Autocar team, I'm really stuck between two bikes for my first motorcycle purchase and could use your advice: the Honda Rebel 300 and Triumph Bonneville T40. I'm 5'10" tall, weigh 75 kg and currently ride an Activa 125. I also have some experience riding 150cc bikes in both city and highway conditions. Budget isn't a major constraint, as I'm comfortable spending around Rs 3.5-4 lakh on-road. Since the price difference between these two bikes isn't a deciding factor for me, choosing between them has become even harder. My usage will mainly involve a short daily commute of 7-8 km, with occasional weekend highway rides of 100-150 km. I love the Rebel's distinctive looks, but its 125mm ground clearance makes me nervous about uneven speed breakers and rough patches. The Bonneville T40 looks gorgeous, has plenty of ground clearance and seems more practical for occasionally carrying a pillion. However, its tubed-spoke wheels make me anxious about punctures on Indian roads. The delivery timelines also matter slightly, as I want to move away from my daily commuter. Another point to consider is that both dealerships are in another city, around 100km away on a round trip, so I'd have to travel that distance for servicing and any issues that might arise. Between the two, which would you pick as a sensible yet characterful step up from a commuter? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Given that we are yet to ride both the Triumph Bonneville T40 and Honda Rebel 300, we can't yet comment on which one is better, although judging purely from a practicality standpoint, the Bonnie ought to tackle Indian roads better with its longer suspension travel, larger wheels and taller ground clearance. If you must have either of these bikes, we'd recommend waiting a few months until ownership and media reviews are out and you can test ride both before making a decision. This is especially pertinent since you mentioned that neither brand has a presence in your city and it's a 100km round trip for you.In the meantime, why don't you check out the slower and heavier but charming and proven Royal Enfield Classic 350? The Classic may lose a comparison against these two judged purely based on its specification sheet, but if you like an effortless, torque-rich riding experience with great comfort, then the Classic will be up your alley. We've seen spy shots of the bike (finally!) coming with centre-laced spoked wheels, which will permit tubeless tyres, and we recommend you go for that when it is launched.
When will deliveries of the Honda Rebel 300 begin?
Deliveries of the new Honda Rebel 300 (both the standard & E-Clutch variants) are likely to begin by the end of this year or latest in the first quarter of 2027. For a more specific timeline, if you have pre-booked the motorcycle, we'd recommend reaching out to your nearest BigWing dealer.
I used to own a Karizma R, and I currently ride a Honda Shine. I'm confused between the TVS Ronin and the Honda Rebel 300. My priorities are a lightweight motorcycle that's easy to commute on daily, while also being capable of occasional highway rides. If there's another motorcycle that suits my requirements better, kindly suggest. My budget is within Rs 2.5 lakh. Also, if I buy a petrol motorcycle instead of an EV, could that become a problem in the future?
Since you're considering the TVS Ronin and the upcoming Honda Rebel 300, we advise you to consider the Honda CB350 range and the Royal Enfield Hunter 350. The Ronin and the air-cooled 350cc motorcycles offer a similar character, with laidback performance and relaxed handling. The Rebel 300, on the other hand, is expected to feel more refined and deliver stronger performance.It would be sensible to wait a few months for the Honda Rebel 300 to launch officially. Take a test ride and compare it with the other options before you go ahead with your purchase.
I am a new rider and am planning to buy the new Honda Rebel with the e-Clutch as my first bike. Should I go for the Rebel 300 or wait for the Rebel 500 which is expected to launch next February? I do not want a heavy bike like my brother's Super Meteor 650. I just want something cool and fun to ride. Also, will I be comfortable on a Rebel as I am 6 feet tall?
If this is to be your very first motorcycle, it makes more sense to go for the smaller Honda Rebel 300 over the bigger 500, although the 500 can also work as your first bike if you plan to keep it for many years but the learning curve will be quite steep in the initial days of your motorcycling journey. Both the Rebel models are much lighter than the comparable Royal Enfield bike so weight really isn't the issue. Coming to whether you will fit on the Rebel, we can't yet comment on that as we haven't been able to spend some quality seat time on either of them. We suggest you wait until both are available in a showroom near you and take a test ride before you make a decision.
