History
Honda began selling a new version of the Activa in the Indian market on 8 May 2009, with a new Шаблон:Cvt engine. Honda said the Fuel economy was improved by 15%.[2]
In April 2014, Honda began an upgraded model of Activa with a Шаблон:Cvt engine and rebranded the model as Activa 125. Currently, both Activa-i and Activa 125 are sold in India along with traditional Honda Activa.
Honda began selling the Activa-i in India, a cheaper and lighter version of the Activa, in December 2013. It is powered by a Шаблон:Cvt engine. On September 22, 2015, Honda announced that they had sold over 1 million Activas in five months in the Indian market, from April to August.[3]
Honda launched their 5th generation of Honda Activa in 2018,[4] and the sixth-generation Honda Activa 6G have been launched in India with prices starting at ₹ 63,912 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
Milestones
In April, 2014, The Economic Times reported the Honda Activa to be the best selling two wheeler in India, outselling the Hero Splendor. During the month of September 2013, 141,996 Honda Activa scooters were sold,[5] nearly equal to Honda's entire annual sales in North America.[6]
The 110cc Activa is the company's biggest seller, by far. It is responsible for over 200,000 sales units each month.
In November 2018, HMSI crossed the 2.5 crore sales mark in the scooter segment. It has become the first company to reach this milestone and the biggest contributor to this massive figure is the Honda Activa.[7]
It took Honda 13 years to achieve the one crore sales figure, but it managed to add another crore in the span of just three years. It then went on to achieve the next 50 lakh in just one year. Honda claims that it is now India's top scooter-selling brand, holding 57 percent of the market share. Honda has also said that every second scooter sold in India is one of theirs.[8]
