It’s hard to think of scooters in India without mentioning the Honda Activa. For years, the Activa has been a popular choice. But when it comes to the Honda Activa 125, this model is a bit different. It’s more powerful and advanced than its smaller sibling, the Activa 110. If you’re considering buying one, there are a few important things you need to know.
Tubeless tyres
The Honda Activa 125 now comes with tubeless tires. It features a 12-inch front wheel and a 10-inch rear wheel. This combination gives the scooter a more balanced and smooth riding experience.
Side-stand engine cut-off feature
Honda has made significant improvements in safety. The Activa 125 features a side-stand engine cut-off feature. This means the engine won’t start if the side stand is engaged. And if the stand is accidentally engaged while driving, the engine will immediately shut off. This significantly reduces the risk of accidents.
Auto Start/Stop System
Fuel efficiency is everyone’s top priority these days. The Honda Activa 125 features an auto start/stop system. This means that when you stop at a traffic signal or in a jam, the engine will automatically shut off, and will restart immediately when you press the accelerator.
TFT display and Bluetooth connectivity
The Activa 125 is also not far behind in terms of technology. It features a 4.2-inch Bluetooth-enabled TFT display. This display displays information such as calls, music, and navigation. This means your phone will remain safe in your pocket while you ride, and you’ll receive important updates on the scooter itself.
Colour options and variants
The Honda Activa 125 is available in two variants and six color options – Red, Matte Grey, Matte Greenish-Grey, Black, White, and Dark Blue. With so many colors, every rider can choose their favorite option.
Engine
Powering the scooter is a 123.9cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine that produces 8.4 hp and 10.5 Nm of torque. This makes it not just a great commuter, but also a fast and comfortable everyday ride.
