Colour updates for the 2026 Honda X-ADV in Malaysia, with recommended retail pricing starting at RM70,999, excluding road tax, insurance and registration. New colours are Matte Deep Mud Grey and Graphite Black, priced at RM70,999, and Matte Pearl Glare White at RM71,999. No changes otherwise in specification, with power coming from a parallel-twin, liquid-cooled mill displacing 745 cc, mated to a six-speed DCT (Dual Clutch Transmission) gearbox. Power is claimed to be 57.8 hp at 6,750 rpm and 69 Nm of torque at 4,750 rpm while the engine is Euro 5 compliant. Fitted with Honda’s Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT), the X-ADV gets five setting levels, with Level 1 the most relaxed while Level 4 shifts up at higher rpm and downshifts earlier for more engine braking effect. Level 2 is linked with the X-ADV’s Standard riding mode, while Level 3 is situated between Standard and Sport, with throttle response now refined for starting from standstill and control at low speed – under 10 km/h – especially for U-turns. Weight for the X-ADV is listed at 236 kg with 13.2 litres of fuel in tank. Seat height is set at 820 mm, with the seat cut away for better reach to the ground while there is a tall seat option at 920 mm. Riding conveniences include Honda’s Smart Key, storage space inside the front cowl, a 22-litre storage compartment under the seat, and a USB-C socket. Auto-cancelling turn signals – the turn signals double as DRLs – are included, and controlled via calculation of front and rear wheel speed difference when turning instead of the usual timer. There are four ride modes – Standard, Sport, Rain and Gravel – and a fifth User mode for custom settings for power delivery, engine braking, ABS and traction control. There are three levels of traction control (plus an ‘Off’ mode) with Level 1 allowing minimum intervention and some rear wheel spin while Level 3 is most aggressive and gives maximum control for slippery roads. Two-channel ABS is standard equipment on the X-ADV, with twin 296 mm discs and four-piston callipers in front and 240 mm brake disc with single-piston calliper in the rear. Suspension is done with upside-down forks in front and a monoshock in the rear.
