Set to launch on November 27, the Honda Activa E is HMSI’s first foray into the electric scooter sector. It will be available in two versions, offer a range of 104 kilometres, and include high-tech features designed to attract consumers in a competitive market.

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) is set to enter the electric two-wheeler market with the introduction of its first electric scooter, the Honda Activa E, with a launch date of November 27. The excitement for this launch has been building, thanks to a series of promotional teasers that have slowly unveiled the scooter’s features.

The most recent teaser offers a look at the two variants of the Activa E, which are differentiated by their digital instrument clusters. The base model will be equipped with a simple TFT display, whereas the more advanced model will feature a vibrant, multi-coloured screen. This enhanced display will provide critical information such as battery status, remaining range, speed, and selected ride mode. It will also include sophisticated features like turn-by-turn navigation and controls for music playback.

Performance expectations for the Activa E are set with a range of 104 kilometers on a full charge under standard conditions, with a sport mode available that promises quicker throttle response at the expense of some range. The powertrain is expected to include swingarm-mounted motors, a design choice similar to those seen in competitors like the Bajaj Chetak and Vida V1, making it a suitable option for families looking for a mid-tier performance electric scooter.

Design teasers have showcased a sleek LED headlamp and a comfortable seating arrangement, hinting at a scooter that doesn’t compromise on practicality or aesthetics. While full specifications are yet to be disclosed, the scooter is anticipated to meet the essential demands of contemporary electric mobility.

In the pricing strategy, Honda aims to position the Activa E competitively within the mass-market electric two-wheeler segment, which is currently led by brands such as Ola Electric, Bajaj, and TVS. This strategic pricing is intended to allow Honda to secure a significant market share in this growing segment.
