The importance of creating brand awareness is something that a must, especially in sectors that are highly dynamic, like the one of two-wheelers. And when it comes to a market like India, where competition is sky high, making a name becomes critical. Now, for makers of two wheeler, making sub-brands, becomes important, such as Bajaj Pulsar, Bajaj Discover, Hero Splendor and Hero Passion. Though Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has made stunning progress in India, it has not been able to cement one series but is trying to change that with the “Dream” series, which includes CD 110, Yuga and Neo models.
is a commuter segment bike that claims to be a fusion between mileage, comfort, technology and style, which is rather a lofty statement but it pretty much lives up to one of those factors. The highlights of this bike are long seat, long wheelbase, and high ground clearance for good stability and HET (Honda Eco Technology) for enhanced performance. This bike is powered by a 109-cc engine that helps it to develop a power level of around 8.25 BHP along with torque of 8.63 Nm. According to company claims, this bike delivers a mileage of around 74 kmpl in optimum conditions.
The next model in this series is Honda Dream Yuga, which is much more stylish and improved than CD 110. A stylishly designed vehicle, this bike features a long seat, 5-step rear adjustable suspension, viscous air filter, attractive graphics, stylish grab rail, a 3D emblem on the tank and tubeless tyres. This bike runs on a 109 cc engine that delivers the same output and torque as the Honda Dream CD 110.
The official website of Honda has written quite attractively about the Honda Dream Neo, saying, “These days, superstars aren’t limited to tinsel towns. They are humble folks who find a way through narrow, winding roads with ease. Not chasing spotlights, they carry their world on their strong, able shoulders. Presenting Dream Neo, the new action-packed member of the Honda family that packs more than a punch. Lights! Camera! Vrooooom! Be the superstar of your film with the new Dream Neo.”
The main highlights of this bike are HET, elegant alloy wheels, long comfortable seat, sleek silencer, smart instrument panel, attractive graphics and high mileage. The mechanical configuration of this bike is exactly the same as the other two bikes in the series. To sum things up, though the entire range of Dream bikes from Honda is same mechanically, there is a lot of difference when it comes to style and in the end, would depend on the customer, whether he would go for the CD Dream 110 or Dream Neo.
