Cutting-edge technology and the spirit of Honda

Our fundamental design philosophy seeks to maximise space and comfort for people, while minimising the space required for mechanical components. With this aim in mind, Honda's R&D activities include product-specific development and fundamental research.

Silent Start with ACG Starter Motor

  • The brush-less ACG starter has been developed to start the engine smoothly.
  • Engine starting quietness is achieved by mounting this component directly on the end of the crankshaft, serving as both a “starter motor” and an “alternator.” Available up to 125cc Honda ATSC and motorcycle.

Honda ACG Starter Motor vs. Conventional Starter Motor

Benefits of ACG Starter:

  • Silent Start – Eliminates typical cranking noise from the starter gear engagement and meshing
  • Low Maintenance – Due to brushless motor, fewer parts.
  • Battery Power: It also charges the battery
  • Reduces Fuel Consumption (Due to the decompression system simplifying the working piston)
