That bike, with a couple of changes, is now being sold in N. America.
Hence the uncanny looks between the 2.
Honestly, I would spend the extra money for the Honda, despite the engine being smaller, because it also makes the actual HP it's rated for. That 150cc is every bit as capable of the same top speed as a CG250 powered Hawk or similar.

I don't know how it would translate to crank HP, but there is a video of one on a Dyno, and it makes just shy of 11 HP at the wheel, at around 7,500 rpm, and makes at least 10HP from about 6,300- 8,600 rpm. I makes about 8 ft lbs of torque between 5,000, and 7,000 rpm. . I don't know how much a properly jetted , but otherwise stock Hawk, or similar would make on a wheel Dyno.
