Honda Activa is value for money; it has average looks, gives good fuel economy.
Can be zipped around through traffic, the driving experience is great, no more fatigue during long drive.
For last four years I have been using this vehicle and totally satisfied.
Repairs are expensive but frequency of repair is less if regularly serviced compared to Kinetic Honda, it ha to be services at interval of six months irrespective of kilometers covered.
The brake need to be improved, after reaching 50 to 60 KPH, it is difficult to handle the scooter when brakes are applied, braking distance required is more compared to kinetic Honda scooter
Indicator buttons can be further improved if superior quality material is used.
Plus points
1) Fuel Economy
2) good pick up
3) average looks
4) Boot space is good
5) Not frequent repair is required.
Improvement required
1) Small mechanical defects needs to be removed/improved
2) Brakes to be made more effective
3) During long drive, more engine power is required
4) Reapirs are very expensive
5) electrical buttons should be of good quality.
If fuel economy and low maintenance is on your mind then Honda Activa is definitely a buy for you.
