Honda Activa User Reviews
- thank to the appVery good app, easy to use, and helps find the best one for myself. I wish it would improve more in the future and help us in finding and giving the best scooter. Thanks a lot to this app for so many gifts and rewards. Since if we got to buy a new bike or scooter at a dealer, it costs a lot, but it now helps us to find the best one.Read More7 8

- it is best in segment for me and very value for money.When I bought this I think I will regret but because it's competitors like jupiter, Honda dio, ntorq, suzuki access. Have more features, more space but I didn't regret because in one litre of petrol, I get the average of 55km which is quite good according to my driving style because my driving style is little aggressive and with less features, it is more reliable and a very good torque which I feel in every throttle.Read More4
