Li-ions Elektrik Spock vs Honda Activa 5G Comparison

Li-ions Elektric Spock is the first product from Gurugram-based electric scooter start-up Li-ions Elektric. It comes with two 72V 20Ah lithium-ion battery packs offering a claimed range of 50-130km on a full charge. It also comes with three modes: Economy, Power, and Reverse mode. The battery powers a Brushless DC hub motor which generates 230Nm of torque and offers a claimed top speed of 45kmph. With a price tag of Rs. 65,000 the Spock isn’t very expensive, but the brand is not well-known.

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.
