Honda sold the Navi (NVA110) in the US for the 2022-2023 model years as an ultra-affordable 109cc automatic commuter priced at just $1,807 MSRP, making it the cheapest new Honda available in the American market. It uses a 109cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine derived from the Honda Activa scooter platform with a CVT automatic transmission, no manual clutch or gear lever. Manufactured at Honda's facility in India, the Navi blends motorcycle-style ergonomics (upright seating, large wheels) with scooter simplicity (twist-and-go CVT). Its brief US production run and low price point mean replacement body panels can approach the original cost of the bike. Each Navi part at Sun Coast Cycle Sports is individually inspected and cataloged at our Florida facility.
Navi generation and parts compatibility
The Navi received no mechanical changes between its 2022 and 2023 US model years. Honda offered only color variations between the two years. All parts interchange freely between 2022 and 2023 models. The Navi shares no parts with the Grom, Monkey 125, Z125 Pro, Super Cub, Trail 125, or any other Honda model sold in the US. Its 109cc Activa-derived engine is a completely different platform from Honda's other small-displacement US offerings. The Activa engine family is widely produced for Asian markets but the Navi is the only US-market Honda to use it.
The Navi has a unique hybrid design that is neither a traditional motorcycle nor a traditional scooter. It uses motorcycle-sized 12-inch wheels front and rear, has no under-seat storage (the storage compartment is accessed through a removable cover where a fuel tank would normally sit), and has a step-through frame. There is no other Honda product with the same form factor in the US market.
Common Navi failure points and replacement parts
The Navi has no NHTSA recalls and no documented systemic failures. The 109cc Activa engine is one of Honda's highest-volume engines worldwide (tens of millions produced for Indian and Southeast Asian markets) and is extremely reliable. Parts needs are almost entirely cosmetic or related to the bike's use as an urban commuter.
Body panel damage: The Navi's lightweight plastic body panels crack easily from parking lot tip-overs, which are common given the bike's light weight (236 lbs) and narrow tires. Panel replacement is the most frequent parts need. Given the Navi's very low purchase price, a single body panel can represent a significant percentage of the bike's value.
CVT belt wear: The CVT drive belt is a standard wear item. Replacement intervals depend on riding conditions but are typically in the 10,000-15,000 mile range. The Navi's small engine works relatively hard in traffic, which can accelerate belt wear compared to larger-displacement scooters.
Battery drain: The small battery can discharge during storage periods. City riders who use the Navi daily generally have no issues, but bikes that sit for more than two weeks between rides should be connected to a battery tender.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Does the Navi share parts with the Grom or any other Honda
No. The Navi uses a 109cc Activa-derived engine and CVT that is unique to this model in the US market. It shares no engine, frame, or body components with the Grom, Monkey, Super Cub, or any other Honda. The Activa platform is a separate engine family from Honda's other 125cc offerings.
Q: Are 2022 and 2023 Navi parts identical
Yes. Honda made no mechanical or dimensional changes between the two US model years. Only color options changed. All parts interchange freely.
