2017 Honda X-ADV specifications

Being an amalgamation of large scooter and adventure motorcycle, Honda's new 2017 X-ADV is certainly a very unusual bike.

Built around a tubular steel frame, features include long-travel suspension, wire-spoke wheels, hand guards, an aluminium bash plate and a five-position adjustable windscreen. For convenience, there's 21 litres of under-seat storage and keyless ignition.

Power is provided by a twin-cylinder engine that's been tuned to deliver plenty of low- and mid-range torque. It comes mated to a dual-clutch transmission as standard (a traditional manual gearbox isn't available).

When sales begin, customers will have a choice of Victory Red, Matt Bullet Silver, Digital Silver Metallic or Pearl Glare White Tricolour colour schemes.

Pricing has yet to be announced.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

The Alfa Romeo MiTo supermini is now available with the innovative two-cylinder TwinAir petrol engine.

Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle.
