The Activa 125 now gets a new range-topping H-Smart variant, which brings in a key fob and gives you access to a whole host of features.
Honda has updated its products to meet the new BS6 Stage II emission deadline that will come into effect from April 1, 2023. The latest model to be updated is the Activa 125, which now gets a new H-Smart variant like the smaller (but hugely popular) Activa 6G.
Honda Activa 125 prices start from Rs 78,920 for the base drum variant and go up to Rs 88,903 for the H-Smart variant.
The Activa 125 now gets a new range-topping H-Smart variant, which brings in a key fob and gives you access to a whole host of features. The digital inset on the dash has also been updated to now feature an eco indicator (it lights up when you’re riding in a fuel-efficient manner) and a distance to empty indicator. Honda has also given the updated Activa 125 a handy front cubby to store knick-knacks.
The Activa 125 is powered by an air-cooled, 124cc, single-cylinder engine and while Honda hasn’t released official output figures for this updated mill, it shouldn’t be much different from the earlier figures which made 8.3hp and 10.3Nm Was. For BS6 model.
The three variants that were on sale earlier – Drum (Rs 78,920), Drum Alloy (Rs 82,588) and Disc (Rs 86,903) – have now become marginally costlier by Rs 1,177. The range-topping H-Smart variant costs ₹2,000 more than the disc variant at ₹88,903.
In terms of features, the Honda Activa 125 gets a silent start system, LED headlight and DRLs and the engine gets a new auto-choke function (same as the new Honda Shine 100).
The Honda Activa 125 goes up against some stiff competition in the 125cc scooter space from domestic as well as Japanese rivals. The Activa 125 is on the more affordable end of the spectrum and with its new H-Smart variant, it should be able to blow away its rivals.
