The Activa 125 is now OBD2B-compliant and gets a range of updates such as a 4.2-inch TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) has now included the Activa 125 scooter in its cashback program. The offer is valid only for SBI credit card holders.

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI) is offering a cashback of Rs. 5,000 on the purchase of a new Activa 125.

Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India has announced that the company's BS6 two-wheeler dispatches have crossed the 60,000 mark. The Japanese manufacturer recently introduced its first two BS6 compliant models - the Honda Activa 125 and the Honda SP 125 - in the country, both catering to the mass market segment. The Activa and the SP 125 are popular sellers for the brand and the BS6 versions seem to be continuing the sales momentum despite the higher price tag. Honda further stated that the company has been seeing an overwhelming demand from all regions for its BS6 models.

Purchasing a new vehicle is usually an exciting process for any customer, possibly down to the part when you have to pay for it. Now, some may choose to take a loan, or swipe their credit cards to make the payment, and some choose to make an outright payment too and that usually is a great option for both the buyer and the dealership. However, in an amusing turn of events, a customer - Rakesh Gupta - in Satna district of Madhya Pradesh decided to purchase a new Honda Activa 125 BS6 on the auspicious occasion of Diwali but decided to pay for the same only in coins. Priced at nearly Rs. 83,000 (on-road), the dealership took about three hours to count the money.

The Honda Activa 125 becomes the first scooter to be BS6 compliant in India and it is on sale as well. We ride the scooter to sample the updates.
