Hero Xtreme 200S vs Honda Activa 5G Comparison

At a price of ₹ 98,500 (ex-showroom, Delhi), the Hero Xtreme 200S makes a good case for itself and not only is it a good-looking motorcycle but is also stacked with features. The performance is decent and the motorcycle should serve as a stylish fully-faired commuter motorcycle within the city. The value for money quotient with the 200S is quite high and you get excellent after-market service network and easy availability of spares too.

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.
