    News Approved.

    Activa & its variants/ derivative models is the reason why Honda manages to hold on to the No. 2 rank in the Indian 2 Wheeler market.
    They aren't doing so well in motorcycles alone, but this continuing trend of gearless scooters is minting them some serious money & sales.

      Activa doesn't have class leading features..Honda's after sales service is also not the best.
      Then why and how ?

        Ehh what?



        That and the Shine 125 has been doing well since its inception. The Dream series have been working in the rural areas as per their press release. The Trigger is set to be replaced with the Hornet so their portfolio of motorcycles and scooters will definitely be rising side by side.

          Popularity just like apple fangirls buy iphones only, activa fangirls go for activa no matter what! A friend of mine wanted to buy an activa (read gearless scooter) and despite of suggesting better alternatives and went for activa, it had a waiting of almost 3 months and she didnt mind paying some extra amount to get a quicker delivery.

                i guess this is why they aren't much worried about higher CC bikes and also the service.
