Powered by two 1.5kWh swappable batteries, the Activa e offers a claimed range of 102km per charge.

The e-scooter boasts a seven-inch TFT screen with Honda RoadSync Duo integration, offering navigation and connectivity features.

It rides on 12-inch alloy wheels, features telescopic front forks, and uses a disc-drum brake setup.
