The best selling scooter in India, Honda Activa recently achieved another milestone when it registered a majestic total unit sales of 1 crore since its inception in the year 2001. The first product from Honda’s portfolio in the country, the Activa, succeeded way ahead of the company’s expectations and made the scooter market alive again with its superior all-round performance and premium looks.
Honda Activa became the market leader in the scooter segment in just 3 years with 55,000 units sold in the initial year of 2001. After that, the vehicle has been seeing constant progress with its recent selling numbers standing at an impressive 2.1 million units in FY’2014-15. With this, Honda Motorcycles and Scooters India (HMSI) is undisputedly the market leader in Indian scooter segment with a commanding 59% share.
Expressing delight on this landmark, Mr. Keita Muramatsu – President & CEO, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd. said, “This achievement is more significant since Activa (an automatic scooter) has gained the trust of One Crore happy families in India. From reactivating the scooter segment in India in 2001 to leading the Scooterization of industry today, Honda’s iconic Activa has changed the way Indians ride to fulfill their dreams. We thank our valued customers and families who have made Activa the most preferred choice of families for commuting in India.”
Elaborating on how Activa is changing the Indian 2Wheeler industry, Mr. Yadvinder Singh Guleria, Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd. said, “A decade ago who would have bet that a scooter would once again be the largest selling two-wheeler in India. But today, Activa has broken the glass ceiling. First, it is only automatic scooter which has become India’s No. 1 Selling 2Wheeler (in June’15, July’15). Secondly, backed by its demand, Honda has become the First Manufacturer to sell more than 2.5 lac scooters in a single month ever in July’15. We believe this demand for automatic scooters will continue to rise. And to further extend its undisputed market leadership and meet the future demand, Honda will continue to innovate its products and services.”
Honda Activa is midweight utility scooter, which is available in 110cc and 125cc engine capacities. The scooter comes with a host of convenience features such as Combi Braking System (CBS), Convenient Lift-up Independent Cover (CLIC) and Honda Eco Technology (HET) that helps it achieve a respectable mileage of 60kmpl as claimed by the company. The one crore unit sales of Activa in the country simply means that one out of two scooter customers here owns a Honda Activa.
