            Style is Excellent
            I am going to buy only. I have ready to book one. If I get by Jan 2025, I will give you the FAQ. Since I am using Active (Petrol) from 2005, I am happy with it. So this also will be giving better performance. the name of Honda is a world wide trade name. If Honda is producing the new EV of course will be excellent.

            Activa e > Ola
            It's a great product from honda. It'll give tough competition to ola as not everyone want too high speed and too much loaded with features. Activa e provides great stability at a good price. And a scooter from honda is something we can trust easily as we all know it's hard to trust Ola. Overall it's great for people older than 40. With basic features and stable ev

            River indie is a good EV
            The River Indie is a scooter that delivers on all its promises. It has ample range for everyday urban riding, storage large enough to move houses, and most importantly, it’s fun to ride. The only problem still with the Indie is that it’s not yet available in cities except Bangalore and Hyderabad. That, and the front suspension is too stiff for a solo rider. Priced at Rs 1.38 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s positioned between the Ola S1 Pro and the new Ather Rizta. ”
