Hero Maestro Edge 125 vs Honda Activa 125 FI 2025 Comparison

The Hero Maestro Edge 125 gets a competitive entry price starting from ₹ 58,500 for the drum brake version, but the FI model is priced at a steep ₹ 62,700 (all prices, ex-showroom Delhi). For the money, it manages to tick all the right boxes in terms of offering the essentials in a 125 cc model. It’s not outrightly sporty and it isn’t commuter-ish either, it sits in a sweet spot right in the middle where it’s exciting enough for a new user but commuter enough for day to day responsibilities.

The Honda Activa 125 offers a no-frills scooter which is comfortable and efficient, in the 125 cc segment. The performance is adequate but not exciting enough. The Activa 125 offers a long list of features and Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India also offers peace of mind with a special 6-year warranty package (3 years standard + 3 years optional extended warranty) on the Activa 125. Top speed is around 90 kmph, and fuel economy of over 45 kmpl.
