The Honda Activa has been the top choice for Indian customers for many years, and now, the company is preparing to launch its first electric version. There have been rumors about the Activa Electric for some time, but it has now been confirmed that the electric scooter will be launched in early 2025.
At the annual SIAM session, Honda revealed plans for its first electric scooter. Yogesh Mathur, Director of Sales and Marketing at Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India, shared more details.
Honda has already started preparing for the Activa Electric’s production by setting up two new manufacturing lines in Gujarat and Karnataka. The Karnataka plant is also being upgraded to produce electric scooters.
Production of the Activa Electric is expected to begin in December 2024, with the official launch planned for early 2025.
What Can We Expect from the Activa Electric?
The Activa Electric will be Honda’s first step into the electric scooter market. It will be an electric version of the popular Activa scooter with minor changes and won’t be built on a dedicated EV platform.
In terms of performance, it will feature a fixed battery pack and a top speed of around 50 km/h. While it may not offer many advanced features, and it will compete with electric scooters from brands like Ola Electric and Ather Energy in India.
