It returned 55.9kmpl on the highway. Not everyone rides a scooter out on the highway everyday, but no matter where you live, a city or tier-2 and tier-3 towns, catching short highway runs is almost unavoidable. And the Activa 6G does fairly well with its frugality. We held the throttle at 55kmph, tried to maintain the engine’s relaxed cruising speed and commuted for a distance of 100km. In fact, it’s done slightly better than the last generation 5G, which we tested a few years ago.

Honda Activa 6G Road Test Review: Likes And Dislikes
In the city, the Activa 6G knocks it out of the park with its 59.5kmpl fuel efficiency. Those are good numbers to have if you’re someone who commutes around town for work and needs a reliable, go-to vehicle. It’s simple, uncomplicated and more efficient than before too. We maintained an average speed of 21kmph under urban riding conditions for a distance of 50km. What’s most satisfying is that the Activa 6G still offers almost the same fuel efficiency as the Activa 5G; in fact, it does it better and a share of credit goes to its new and revised engine.
See, for a scooter that will be handled by many members of the family, each one with a very different throttle hand and travel routine, this Activa is frugal enough to return an average combined real world mileage of 57.7kmpl if ridden economically.

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 More
Smooth engine & performance: Honda ka technology engine bohot quiet aur smooth hai. Initial pickup accha hai aur city traffic me chalana bohot aasan hai. Behtaren Mileage: Daily ride me 45–52 kmpl tak ka mileage aaram se mil jata hai, jo city commute ke hisaab se kaafi budget-friendly hai. Build quality & safety: Full metal body hone ki wajah se scooter bohot sturdy aur durable lagta hai. Telescopic suspension ke kaaran kharab sadkon par bhi accha comfort milta hai.Read More
