Starting January 1, 2025, excited customers can officially book their slot for this electric wonder. Deliveries will begin in February 2025 with a promise of making the shift to electric mobility swift for many.
A Fierce Competition
The Activa Electric will soon shake the competitive electric scooter market as it is going to compete with already well-established players like Vida V2, Bajaj Chetak 2903, Ola S1 X, and TVS i-Cube.
Style and Substance
The Activa Electric will be offered in a variety of sleek shades such as Pearl Shallow Blue, Pearl Misty White, Pearl Serenity Blue, Matte Foggy Silver Metallic, and Pearl Igneous Black, to help customers express their personal style.
Power and Performance
Powered by two portable 1.5kWh battery packs, the Activa Electric boasts an impressive range of 102 km on a single charge. Accelerating from 0 to 60 kmph in a swift 7.3 seconds, this scooter delivers a thrilling riding experience with a top speed of 80 kmph.
Performance and Efficiency
The heart of the Activa Electric lies in its very powerful electric motor mounted on the rear wheel. This yields a very robust 8 hp of power and also 22 Nm of torque, which makes it effortlessly smooth in performance.
Riding Modes for Every Need
To cater to diverse riding styles and preferences, the Activa Electric will offer three unique riding modes: Econ, Standard, and Sport. These modes allow riders to optimize their range, performance, and energy consumption according to their needs.
Convenient charging solutions
The Activa Electric comes with a convenient home charger, which means hassle-free charging at your doorstep. A full charge can be achieved in about 6:50 hours, and an 80% charge can be attained in just 4:30 hours, thereby reducing downtime and maximizing convenience.
Expected Price and Availability
The Activa Electric will be rolled out from Honda’s high-tech Narasapura plant in the vicinity of Bangalore. These will primarily be available in key metro cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore with an ex-showroom starting price of Rs 90,000, which will also make it attractive for budget-conscious consumers looking at embracing electric mobility.
Style and Technology Blend
The Activa Electric is not only about performance but a statement of style and technology. With 12-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, a spacious flat footboard, comfortable single-piece dual-tone seat, and all-LED lighting, the scooter exudes a premium look and feel.

The Future of Battery Ownership
Honda is poised to change the game of battery ownership with its new Battery as a Service (BaaS) program. This is a subscription-based model, where the customer rents the battery pack, thereby avoiding upfront costs and associated maintenance concerns. The BaaS program offers the most flexibility and affordability. Customers will pay a monthly subscription fee based on their usage, so electric mobility will be much more accessible to the broader market. It also gets rid of the requirement of customers to invest in and maintain expensive battery packs on their own.
Conclusion
Honda Activa Electric is a groundbreaking step forward in the evolution of mobility in the urban space. With its attractive design, class-leading performance, cutting-edge technology, and innovative BaaS program, the Activa Electric is sure to win over the hearts of Indian commuters and usher into a new era of sustainable convenient transportation.
