The heart of the Activa 4G is a tried-and-tested 109cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine. The engine delivers 8bhp and 9Nm of torque through a CVT transmission. The engine gets Honda Eco Technology which aims to maximise efficiency without compromising on performance. The Activa returned 61.6kmpl in our standard test cycle, which when coupled with the 5.3 litre fuel tank gives it a maximum range of just over 320 kilometres.
The Activa 4G rides on trailing link suspension at the front and a monoshock at the rear. It gets 10-inch steel wheels at both ends shod with tubeless tyres. Brake setup consists of 130mm drum brakes front and rear. Honda’s proprietary combi braking system ( CBS) is offered as standard. This system automatically activates the front brake every time the rear brake is used.
The Activa 4G is available in seven paint schemes which add some glitz to the otherwise conservative-looking scooter – black, red, blue, grey, white brown and silver. The Activa 4G competes against the TVS Jupiter, Hero Maestro Edge and the Yamaha Fascino.
