Honda Activa is one of the most popular and best-selling automatic scooters in India. Gear-less scooters are very popular in India because they are very easy and comfortable to ride. Honda Activa is powered by a 109cc, 4-stroke engine, which develops maximum power of 8 BHP at 7500 rpm with maximum torque of 8.74 NM at 5500 rpm. It is equipped with front and rear 130mm drum brakes. The company claimed mileage of the scooter is 70 KMPL and you can expect the real-world figure to be less by 5-15 KMPL under routine driving conditions. Other popular scooters in India are Suzuki Access, Piaggio Vespa, Yamaha Ray, Hero Maestro, Mahindra Rodeo RZ and TVS Wego. Out of these scooters Piaggio Vespa is quite unique in terms of design and style. It is equipped with a 125cc engine, which generates maximum power and maximum torque of 9.92 BHP and 10.6 NM respectively. The only negative point of Vespa is the price; the on-road price of the scooter is more than seventy thousand rupees. This makes Honda Activa the winner among all these scooters and Activa recently proved this by out-selling the Hero Splendor, which was the best-selling 2-wheeler in India.
