Piaggio Vespa 150 vs Honda Activa 5G Comparison

Piaggio’s Vespa 150 is a scooter available at a starting price of Rs. 1,48,261 in India. It is available in 2 variants and 6 colours with top variant price starting from Rs. 1,53,727. The Piaggio Vespa 150 is powered by 149.5 cc BS6 engine which develops a power of 10.32 bhp and a torque of 10.60 Nm. With front disc and rear drum brakes, the Piaggio Vespa 150 comes up with anti-locking braking system.

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.
