Hyosung has taken the wraps off the GV300 cruiser that is expected to be the replacement to the Aquila 250

Hyosung GV300

Hyosung seems to be gearing up to update to its entire model range in 2016. Along with the GT650R and the smaller GT300R, Hyosung has also unveiled a new offering in the cruiser segment – the GV300.

Expected to replace Hyosung’s current Aquila 250, the GV300 is an all new design. It sports a teardrop shaped tank, a round headlight and split seats. Being a cruiser, the GV300 has a lot of chrome bits all around on the exhaust, handlebars, mirrors and the rear suspension. In fact, the blackened out engine and the alloy wheels highlight the chrome even further.

At the heart of things, the GV300 will sport the same engine that will also power the GT300R. It gets a 275cc air/oil-cooled V-twin that produces 26.6PS of power at 8,500rpm and 23.5Nm at 7,000rpm. This unit comes mated to a 5-speed transmission. Suspension duties are performed by telescopic forks up front and hydraulic double shocks at the back. As far as the brakes are concerned, the GV300 gets a 300mm disc up front and a 270mm disc at the back, both of which are assisted by ABS. In terms of dimensions, the Hyosung GV300 is 2,294mm long, 1,130mm wide and 875mm tall. It has a wheelbase of 1,515mm.

In India the Hyosung GV300 will be launched sometime next year, and when it does it is expected to be priced around Rs 3 lakh.
