The Honda Activa E will have swingarm-mounted motors, similar to what the Bajaj Chetak and VidaV1 also get. Dubbed as the Activa Electric, the new offering is expected to be targeted towards the family buyer, which would explain why Honda has opted for a mid-performance setup.
Given the swingarm-mounted motor, Honda could price its electric scooter attractively compared to rivals. The company is eyeing the mass-market electric two-wheeler segment, which is led by Ola Electric, Bajaj and TVS. The previous teasers have further shown another glimpse of the LED headlamp and the seat on the new electric scooter.
