I've made it absolutely no secret that I like bright colors. I've also loved scooters for a long time, both for their eminent practicality, and also their omnipresent unwillingness to be so. bloody. serious. They're stylish, cute, and built for real life; that's why so many people all over the world use them as everyday transport. Sometimes, you just want simple and cute. Cheap and cheerful. Neo and retro.
And that, friends, is exactly what Honda's partnership with Sundiro in China is bringing to the table with the NS150LA. It's got stylish neo-retro looks for days, and will come in two different trim levels: Youth and Pro. The Youth version is stripped down to the essentials, and doesn't have the little windscreen, front rack, or top box that the Pro gets. It also doesn't get the built-in dashcam functionality of the Pro, nor the disc brakes of the Pro, so those are also less visible things to keep in mind if you're deciding between the two.
Both the Youth and Pro versions come in your choice of four different colorways: yellow, white, pink, or a really cool gray metallic if you're not feeling particularly bright. The price difference between the two trim levels isn't massive, either. Pick a Youth NS150LA, and it'll run you 14980 RMB, which is equivalent to about US $2,121 at the time of writing. Go for all the bells and whistles with the Pro, and it's 16,580 RMB, or about US $2,347.
