Q. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ACTIVA 5G DLX AND ACTIVA 5G STD?
  • ACTIVA 5g is analogue speedometer, fuel gauge and headlight is also bulb type. But ACTIVA 5g DLX is having led headlight (more brightness than bulb type), speedometer is analogue but trip meter is display type. This is also useful for using every time km driven, service indication ( spanner icon is also there) service indicates with blinking this icon for remind me service.
  • Dlx model has digital cluster console which will tell the trip meter & odometer, service indicator etc. STD model doesn't have trip meter and service indicator. Thats the difference.
  • If u compare the quality of any parts between these two wheeler activa 5g is better than tvs jupiter. In Dlx major specs & features are digital with analog speedometer,time,service due indicator,ecospeed indication, turning indications.

Q. Which is better, Honda Activa 5G or Suzuki Access 125 in terms of mileage, performance, maintenance and service?
  • Suzuki access leads the way because of its ride quality and sturdy looks. If you go for BS 6 then the mileage part is slightly better than Activa 5g. I personally feel the torque is slightly better than Activa 5G.
  • I dont have any experience with jupiter. But I own honda activa. the power in the vehicle is sufficient but when it comes to the comfort and mileage then it is nowhere especially the front suspension of honda activa is more than worst. The balance and the comfort of the access 125 is also good. The engine of the access is very decent. Overall the honda activa is not a worth buying vehicle.
  • When you are starting any bike in the morning, you must use kick till the scooter gets on. When it's on whole day you can use self. If you use self in the morning then engine would not start.

    Decent build quality 

    It provides decent build quality and good fit and finishing with good storage space. It gives good riding range and performance and well made riding and handling. It is very easy to handle and with right tyre size and reliable braking and also has user friendly features. This electric scooter gives around 60 km per charge range and the top speed is around 42 kmph but hardware should be improved. It is elegant and beautiful looking electric scooter but has low ground clearance. It is very easy to handle in traffic but feels dated.
