The Honda Activa 6G continues to dominate India’s two-wheeler market as the country’s most trusted and best-selling scooter. With its refined 110cc engine, impressive mileage, and practical features, it remains a top choice for students, professionals, and families alike. But does the latest version live up to the hype? Let’s find out.
Engine & Performance
Powered by a 109.51cc air-cooled engine, the Activa 6G delivers 7.88 BHP at 8000 RPM and 9.05 Nm torque at 5500 RPM. The engine is smooth, vibration-free, and fuel-efficient, making it ideal for daily city commutes. While not built for high-speed thrills, it offers reliable performance with easy maneuverability in traffic.
Mileage – Best in Class?
Honda claims an outstanding 55 kmpl mileage, making it one of the most fuel-efficient scooters in India. Real-world tests show 48-52 kmpl under mixed riding conditions, which is still excellent for a 110cc scooter. The 5.3-litre fuel tank ensures fewer fuel stops, perfect for daily office or college runs.
Features & Comfort
The Activa 6G comes with:
✔ Analog-digital instrument cluster (speedometer, odometer, trip meter)
✔ External fuel filler (for convenient refueling)
✔ Comfortable seat & ergonomic footboard (great for long rides)
✔ 12-inch front & 10-inch rear wheels (better stability)
✔ Tubeless tyres (puncture-resistant)
While it lacks a fully digital console or Bluetooth connectivity (unlike rivals like TVS Jupiter), its practicality and reliability make up for it.
