Thoughts About The Honda Activa Becoming India's Top-Selling Scooter

Honda launched the Activa at the right time. There were at that point products like the Scooty and the Scooty Pep that offered way lesser than the Activa did. The scooter was always destined to rule the segment. We think it will continue ruling the Indian markets. Kudos to HMSI and its team.
