When Will It Launch and How Much Will It Cost?
Mark your calendars! The Honda Activa 7G is expected to hit the showrooms around March 15, 2025. Honda has chosen this time carefully because scooter sales usually go up during summer. When it comes to price, you’ll be happy to know that the base model will likely cost around ₹79,000 (ex-showroom). After adding insurance and taxes, the final price may go up to ₹85,000-₹90,000 depending on where you live. Interestingly, this makes it slightly cheaper than the current 2025 Honda Activa model.
What’s New in the Engine?
At the heart of Activa 7G is that same 109.51cc engine that people trust, but Honda tweaked it better. It’s now compliant with BS6 Phase 2 emission levels which makes it a greener option. The power is slightly increased to 7.8 bhp giving you better ride. But the best of all? Mileage is stated to be as high as 50-60km per liter! Less visits to the petrol pump and more saving in your pocket as it implies henceforth. Coming with Honda’s automatic transmission (CVT) like an all Activas, you need not deal with changing gears in the city.
Cool New Features You’ll Love
The Activa 7G is simply packed with features to make Honda Activa 7G smarter, safer. To start with, they now come with semi digital instrument cluster (full digital on the top models) so all your ride related data are formatted very well at the dashboard. The display in some models can even be used with phone via Bluetooth to display call alerts and messages. Now visualize you are able to get your navigation directions without the necessity of looking at your phone!
Also gaining considerable improvements is the safety. There is front disc brake on higher variants which better in bringing the scooter to a halt, especially in emergency situations or rainy seasons. CBS (Combined Braking System) is standard on every model, which acts exactly like you’d want when you hit the lever and apply braking. There is even a nifty side stand sensor so the engine will not fire if the stand is down – no more mortifying situations or spills!
More Space and Charging On-the-Go
Practicality is what Activa excels at, and 7G just takes it a step further. The under-seat storage is now about 15% larger, allowing you to cram in your full-face helmet and other stuff. There is even a USB Charging port for your phone – very handy food delivery partner or anyone who needs to navigate while riding. You will also get few good small storage areas in which you can keep your wallet, keys or phone if needs be.
Comfort and Style Upgrades
Because more comfortable rides, you have better suspension system. Front have telescopic suspension and rear adjust their dampers – in combination they are much better at digesting bad-road nasties. It even has new headlights too that are brighter, and longer-lasting than the old halogen bulbs giving the scooter a more sporty look as well. Keeping the tried and true Activa form everyone loves, there are some new color options to choose from.
How Does It Compare to Other Scooters?
Now, when we look at the Activa 7G in the fray of its main rivals – TVS Jupiter Vs. Suzuki Access 125 it fares pretty well. It commands a price of ₹79,000 falling between the Jupiter (₹74,691) and Access 125 (₹82,900). What you in fact get is reliability as is the norm with Honda paired to better mileage than both rivals. Despite the inflated cost of Jupiter, it lacks features of Activa 7G in terms of being a modern vehicle. The Access has bigger engine but gives less mileage.
Should You Wait for the Activa 7G?
The Activa 7G is worth the wait if you can hold out till March 2025, Right? It adds useful features such as Bluetooth, USB charging and even better brakes to the already Honda trustworthy DNA. The fact that it is said to give mileage of 50-60 kmpl is also good. Still, if you have to get scooter urgently then Activa 6G (current model) is again equally good from my personal experience.
It seems Honda Activa 7G will continue to fuel the success story of India’s no1 scootyer. Be it a mix of current amenities, consistent performance and good mileage, it has something for everyone —students, salaried, housewives and delivery professionals alike. This will cost you around ₹79,000 which again makes it good value for money. So, by 2025 if you want to get a scooter then its must be Activa 7G in your list!
