Honda Activa 125 facelift launched to recover lost space

Honda Activa 125 has always faced a tough competition from Suzuki Access 125, but the former has always been the company's favourite due to its massive success, therefore, the auto firm has again launched its updated version priced at Rs 59,621 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
 
The updated new Activa 125 comes with a LED headlight, a redesigned semi-digital instrument console (with an eco-mode and service due indicator), four-in-one ignition, and a separate switch to open the seat, said an AutoCar report, adding that cosmetic updates include a chrome muffler cover (on the top-spec disc variant) and grey alloy wheels on the mid and top-spec variant. 
 
The new 125cc scooter is reportedly available in two new matte shades of ‘matte crust metallic’ and ‘matte selene silver metallic’. 
 
With an under seat mobile charger, which is an optional extra, the 2018 Honda Activa 125 gets a 3-step adjustable monoshock unit at the back, while the telescopic fork at front is similar to the older model. The updated version also carries forward the metal body panels.
 
Powered by the same 8.52hp/10.54Nm 124.9cc engine, the new Activa 125's base and mid variant boasts of drum brake on both wheels, while front disc brake is only offered on the top-spec variant. CBS (combined braking system) is standard across the range, AutoCar said.
 
With it latest updates, the Activa 125 is likely to give tough competition to its arch rival Suzuki Access 125.
