SELANGOR, 20 MARCH 2025 – Benda Malaysia has once again made waves in the motorcycle market with the launch of its latest model, Benda Chinchilla 500, a mid-range cruiser that blends power, style and cutting-edge technology.

This motorcycle is designed for riders seeking a relaxed yet powerful riding experience, offering a medium-sized engine, a well-balanced seat position and an ergonomic design for comfortable journeys through city streets.

Powered by a 475.6cc V2-cylinder, 4-stroke, 8-valve and DOHC engine, Benda Chinchilla 500 delivers an authentic and thrilling riding experience while prioritizing rider satisfaction. The official launch was held in conjunction with the ‘Santapan Berbuka Bersama Media’ event at Courtyard, Kuala Lumpur.

Benda Chinchilla 500 is priced at RM27,888 (excluding insurance and road tax) and is now available at all authorized MForce dealers nationwide.

This cruiser is available in three striking colors, Black, Blue and Grey, each exuding a unique personality. The blend of retro-modern design elements is captivating, with LED headlights and taillights that combine classic aesthetics with modern technology, enhancing both its bold appearance and rider safety.

Benda Chinchilla 500 generates a maximum power output of 35.0 kW at 9,000 rpm and a peak torque of 42.0 Nm at 7,200 rpm. Equipped with a liquid cooling system and an electronic fuel injection (EFI) system, this motorcycle delivers a smooth and efficient performance, making it ideal for both daily commutes and long-distance journeys.

Safety remains a top priority, with the dual-channel ABS and Traction Control System (TCS) ensuring optimal stability and tire grip, especially during sudden acceleration or emergency braking on slippery or uneven surfaces.

Additionally, the Side Stand Safety Switch prevents the motorcycle from starting when shifting gears if the side stand is still down, ensuring extra safety. The belt drive transmission system enhances smoothness and riding comfort by reducing vibration and maintenance needs compared to traditional chain drives.

With a 16-liter fuel tank capacity, Benda Chinchilla 500 offers an extended travel range, minimizing the need for frequent refuelling. The front suspension features an upside-down telescopic fork, while the rear suspension is equipped with dual shock absorbers, ensuring enhanced stability and control throughout the ride.

Staying true to its retro-modern concept, this model comes with a minimalist digital meter that displays clear riding information. Additionally, two USB charging ports (Type-A and Type-C) allow riders to conveniently charge their devices while on the go.

Designed for comfort, Benda Chinchilla 500 features dual seats for both the rider and passenger. Adding to the riding pleasure, the dual-exhaust system not only produces a deep, bassy engine roar but also adds a touch of style to the motorcycle.

Weighing 215kg, Benda Chinchilla 500 has a seat height of 705mm and dimensions of 2,220mm in length, 890mm in width, and 1,150mm in height. The front tire measures 150/80-16, while the rear tire is 180/65-16. The bore and stroke dimensions are 69mm and 63.6mm, respectively.

With its bold design, thrilling performance, and advanced safety features, Benda Chinchilla 500 is set to redefine the mid-range cruiser segment and capture the hearts of motorcycle enthusiasts across Malaysia.
