Honda, the Japanese automaker, has been in India since 2001 and has established itself as one of the most trusted brands in India. The Honda Activa series of scooters are among the most popular in India and are preferred by many, thanks to their stylish and trendy design and excellent performance.
If you’re looking to buy a new scooter that’s under INR 50,000, you can choose from one of these three Honda Activa scooters that we have picked out for you based on our own review of all the Honda Activa models available in India.
1) Honda Activa-i
The youngest member of the Activa series, the Honda Activa-i can be purchased for INR 49,570.

This motorbike features smooth and stable performance, so it's a good option for commuting daily.
This bike has three-spoke alloy wheels and drums for front and back brakes.
