The ARAI claimed mileage of Honda Activa 125 will be same as of Honda Activa 5g i.e 60 Kmpl. So, there won't be any difference in fuel consumption. Moreover, mileage totally depends on the driving style, road condition, tyre pressure, etc.

Scooters are for those who need a vehicle which can be used regularly for grocery shopping and short commutes in cities where traffic leads to ride fatigue. 125 cc motorcycle is for riders who need to cover longer city commutes regularly and that too on broken roads etc. 125cc motorcycles return better fuel average (other than D125) Decide basis the requirement. Best of both worlds could be something like an Aprilia 125 scooter

Hero Pleasure could be a good option as the scooter features a lower saddle height, lightweight, ease of handling & ride quality, and passable performance. The scooter is powered by a 102cc, air-cooled, four-stroke engine which is mated to a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). The scooter returns a claimed fuel efficiency of 63 km/l.

@ Zigwheels | Yamaha Fascino could be a better scooter if you are looking for a scooter with good overall performance and distinctive styling. The scooter also features good build quality, excellent fuel efficiency, nimble handling due to its lightweight and refined engine. Honda Activa 5G could be a better option too but the design feels a bit dated. Moreover, do take a test ride of the scooter for a better understanding of performance, comfort, and handling.

I came here searching for another scooter after a painstaking 2 years with fascino. Don't buy it. Worst scooter ever. Speedometer cable will be cut and needs to be replaced in every service. Costs you 190 for that. Service center people are horrible. They filled up my headlamp with water and the bulb burst because of that. They say there's a problem with electric wiring and needs to be checked and it would cost anywhere between 5,000 to 7,000. Went to local mechanic, he put in New bulb, removed water and now no broken bulbs. Back side weak body. It rattles. Full sound. Service center guys say the design itself is like that. Can't change it and all. I'll never ever buy a Yamaha product. Lesson learnt, money lost.
