The Honda PCX is a scooter developed by Honda. It is produced by Thai Honda Manufacturing in Thailand, and was first introduced for sale in November 2009.〔(Honda Begins Production and Sales of All-new Scooter PCX in Thailand ) retrieved on 31 January 2013〕 In 2012, the original engine was redesigned to decrease friction, increasing efficiency, and the displacement was increased to 152.9 cc.〔(Motorcycle.com -- 2013 Honda PCX150 Review ) retrieved on 5 February 2013〕 The new engine is based on Honda's eSP (Enhanced Smart Power) design.〔(Honda Announces PCX125 with Next Generation Engine eSP ) retrieved on 31 January 2013〕 Honda continues to produce the 125 cc version (with eSP) for export to select markets,〔(Honda Worldwide: Honda Announces PCX125 with Next Generation Engine eSP ) retrieved on 5 February 2013〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.moto-choice.com/en/Bike-Review/239/honda-pcx-150-idle-stop-2012-present-urban-frugality.html )〕 such as Europe, where local licence requirements favour this engine displacement. ==Technology== The global version of the Honda PCX is equipped with an idling stop system, which automatically shuts off the PCX when stopped.〔(Honda Worldwide: Engine idling stop system ) retrieved on 31 January 2013〕 This feature is not included on the US model due to safety concerns.〔(NHTSA puts brakes on Honda's 'Idle Stop' transmission technology, according to NetCompliance Website ) retrieved on 1 February 2013〕 To prevent excess wear on a separate starter motor, Honda PCX uses its alternator by supplying power to the stator (see Brushless DC electric motor). As a result, engine start is completely muted.〔(Honda ACG start technology on Honda's website ) retrieved on 30 August 2013〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Honda PCX」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
