Honda is all set to launch its third BS6-compliant two-wheeler, the Activa 6G, tomorrow. The upcoming Activa 6G is likely to command a premium of around Rs 6,000 to Rs 8,000 over the current generation scooter. For reference, the Activa 5G starts from Rs 55,934 (ex-showroom Delhi).

Some of the specifications of the Activa 6G leaked recently, and as per the document, the upcoming scooter is likely to make slightly less power than the current-generation model. You can read all about it here.

As far as the features are concerned, the Activa 6G is expected to come with an external fuel filler cap, which should make refuelling a lot easier than using an underseat fuel cap. Like the Activa 125 BS6, expect the Activa 6G to also get an ACG starter which will ensure silent startups. Other features like a semi-digital instrument cluster, LED headlamp and an optional USB charging port are expected to be carried over from the Activa 5G. That said, if we’re lucky, the higher-end version of the Activa 6G could also come with a more informative instrument cluster complete with real-time fuel efficiency, range and the likes.
