**December 26, 2024-2025 Honda Unicorn Launched**
Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India launched the updated 2025 Unicorn on December 26, 2024, priced at Rs 1,19,481 ex-showroom Delhi at launch - a hike of approximately Rs 8,000 over the outgoing model. The price increase was driven by OBD2B emission compliance upgrades and new equipment: an LED headlight with chrome accents, a fully digital LCD instrument cluster, a USB Type-C charging port, and a side-stand engine cut-off sensor. The engine itself - the 162.71cc air-cooled unit - remains mechanically unchanged, though it now meets the stricter OBD2B norms that are mandatory for all new two-wheelers sold in India.

**What Changed from the Previous Model**
The outgoing Unicorn (2020-2024) ran OBD2A-compliant mechanicals and featured an analogue-semi-digital instrument cluster without a gear position indicator. The 2025 model brings the digital console to par with modern commuters in the segment. The headlight upgrade is the most visible change - the halogen unit has been replaced with a projector-style LED assembly that improves night visibility significantly.

**What Didn't Change**
Honda chose not to update the braking hardware - the rear drum brake and single-channel ABS configuration carry over. No Bluetooth connectivity has been added. The design language is also unchanged from the broad strokes perspective, though the headlight and some trim updates freshen the look.

## Updates
- 2026-04: Honda Unicorn recorded 39,310 units sold in April 2026, making it Honda's third best-selling model that month - a 51% year-on-year increase compared to 26,017 units in April 2025.
- 2026-03: Honda Unicorn sold 34,358 units in March 2026, achieving 17.01% year-on-year growth in the 150-200cc motorcycle segment, ranking third behind the Bajaj Pulsar 150 (55,360 units) and TVS Apache series.
- 2026-02: Honda Unicorn posted 36,317 units in February 2026, a 25.53% year-on-year increase, continuing a strong sales run since the 2025 model launch.
- 2024-12: Honda launched the 2025 Unicorn on December 26, 2024, at Rs 1,19,481 ex-showroom Delhi - an increase of Rs 8,180 over the outgoing model - with a new LED headlight, fully digital LCD instrument cluster, USB Type-C charging port, side-stand engine cut-off sensor, and OBD2B compliance.

As of May 2026, no further updates to the Unicorn have been announced. Honda's India product roadmap suggests the brand is focused on expanding the CB-series and Hornet lineup for the premium commuter segment. Any next revision to the Unicorn is likely to address the rear disc brake and Bluetooth connectivity gaps - both of which have been recurring requests from the owner community.
