Pros Cons Honda Activa 5G

Pros

  • Refined Engine
  • Honda’s superior service network.
  • Low maintenance.

Cons

  • The front brake doesn’t offer enough bite.
  • Outdated suspensions.
  • The plastic quality is not very adequate.

Verdict

Based on the features, technology and design, the Honda Activa 5G  is one of the most reliable scooters in the market.

Honda Activa 5G offers a smooth ride, comfortable ergonomics, along with an extended mileage of 60 kmpl.

Its qualities combinedly make it an ideal scooter for long drives and daily use but at a competitive price.

There is no doubt that the 5G model is a much enhanced and refined variant of its predecessors. However, most Indian riders who buy a scooter over a bike do so because of the former’s utility and features. Missing out on essential elements like telescopic suspensions and disc brakes can affect the scooter’s popularity, especially when the competitors provide the parts at the same price.

However, with just a few tweaks, such as stronger brakes, telescopic suspension, and a few more functional enhancements, Honda can comfortably justify 5G’s price.
