After this, Honda is planning to introduce an all-new electric scooter. This shall be based on a brand new platform dedicated for the electric powertrain.

It will compete with the new high efficiency electric scooters available in the market. It will get new tech including swappable battery. The Japanese bike maker will set up 6000 battery swapping touchpoints throughout the country to create the new ecosystem for their electric two-wheeler.

The company will be investing heavily to localise the electric motor and the battery. Together with this, they’ll make changes to their manufacturing plant to provide both ICE and electric bikes and scooter under one roof.

Honda believes customers with limited running will go for electric Activa however those who travel longer distances will still desire the ICE model of the Activa.

Now a day, Ola, Ather, and Okinawa dominate the electric scooter market in India. Ola recently launched the Ola S1 Air as its least expensive EV to rival the Honda Activa, whereas Ather launched the 450X Gen 3 with several updates.
