Honda Activa Reaches Big Milestone, Sales Crosses 3 Crore Units

The company had achieved sales of one crore units of Activa about eight years ago. For the first time with Activa, the company introduced Tough Up Tube, which is the company’s patented puncture resistance technology. This reduces sudden punctures. Activa was the first scooter in this segment with BS6 compliant engine.

Earlier this year the company had launched Activa 6G. The company’s H-Smart technology has been given in it. This is the new premium variant of Activa. Activa is already the most popular scooter in the two-wheeler market. The starting price of the new Activa is Rs 74,536 (ex-showroom). It has been made available in three variants of Standard, Deluxe and Smart. HMSI had told that this scooter has a smart find feature through which the user can search the scooter using the smart key. With this key the user can lock and unlock the scooter without using the physical key. This key can start the engine of the scooter when it is within a radius of two meters. Engine start and stop switch is also provided in it.

Honda Activa H-Smart has a larger wheelbase, new passing switch and DC LED headlamp. It will have 12-inch alloy wheels, telescopic front suspension and adjustable rear suspension. The company has also claimed to have made the engine of this scooter more powerful than before. Its 110 cc PGM-FI engine comes with Enhanced Smart Power (eSP) technology. The new Activa competes with scooters like TVS Jupiter and Hero Maestro already present in the market. Next year the company plans to launch its first electric scooter. The sales of electric scooters are increasing rapidly in the country and due to this, HMSI is also preparing to launch some models in this segment.
