ACTIVA e is a newly developed model based on the body and frame of the ACTIVA, Honda’s best-selling motorcycle globally and in the Indian market, selling approximately 2.5 million units annually. ACTIVA e is an electric commuter model equivalent to a 110 cc internal combustion engine model, powered by two Honda Mobile Power Pack e: swappable batteries.

• Its design follows the ACTIVA, which has an established reputation among Indian customers, while its simple styling is instantly recognizable as an electric motorcycle, with LED combination lights and indicators for the front and rear provide a futuristic look.
• Two Honda Mobile Power Pack e swappable batteries are used for ACTIVA e:’s power source. Honda’s original wheel-side motor delivers a rated output of 4.2 kW and a maximum output of 6.0 kW. Optimization of the magnetic circuit and structure has also resulted in higher efficiency and a cruising range of 102 km [4], which is sufficient for everyday use.
• Three driving modes (STANDARD, SPORT, and ECON) can be selected according to various riding situations and customer preference, and a reverse mode is also provided for convenient parking.
• ACTIVA e is also available with Honda RoadSync Duo®[5, 6] Honda’s unique service that allows users to make phone calls and use navigation functions by connecting a smartphone via Bluetooth®[7].
