Honda’s filing for the name Ryden 160 has drawn attention because it appears in Indonesia’s intellectual property database, not in a product launch announcement. The move has fueled speculation that Astra Honda Motor may be preparing a new 160 cc scooter for one of the region’s most competitive markets.
According to the official PDKI record, the Ryden 160 trademark application was submitted on 11 June 2026 and published on 17 June 2026. It is registered in Class 12, which covers two-wheeled vehicles, motorcycles, electric motorcycles, and related components.
Why the name stands out
The “160” suffix immediately places the filing alongside Honda’s existing premium scooter lineup in Indonesia. That segment is currently represented by the Vario 160, PCX 160, ADV 160, and Stylo 160, all of which have become familiar names to local buyers.
What makes the filing even more interesting is that the Ryden name has not been used on any known Honda global product line. That detail has led to the possibility that the model could be intended specifically for Indonesia, a market that remains one of the world’s largest for motorcycles.
Honda has not confirmed a new model
AHM has not announced any product launch tied to the name. Ahmad Muhibbuddin, General Manager of Corporate Communication at AHM, said trademark registration is a normal step taken by companies to protect intellectual property.
He also stressed that whether the name will be used on a new product is still a management decision to be made later. In other words, the filing alone does not mean the scooter will soon reach showrooms.
What the filing suggests
Even without confirmation, the registration is being read as a signal that Honda may be preparing something in the 160 cc scooter space. That category remains highly attractive in Indonesia because Honda’s 160 cc engines are widely seen as a balance of power and efficiency.
In a market where premium scooters continue to compete closely, a new name such as Ryden 160 would add another layer of interest if it eventually enters production. For now, the only confirmed facts are the trademark status, the Class 12 registration, and its connection to two-wheeled vehicles.
The public now waits to see whether Honda will turn the Ryden 160 name into an actual model for Indonesian roads. Until then, the filing remains a notable clue rather than a confirmed product reveal.
