Honda will soon be launching two limited-edition colour schemes of one of the highest selling scooters in the country – the Activa 5G. The scooter is available in STD and DLX variants, and both will be offered with the limited-edition colours that come at a reasonable hike of Rs 400. The limited-edition STD is priced at Rs 55,032, while the limited-edition DLX costs Rs 56,897 (both prices, ex-showroom, Delhi). Dealerships are accepting bookings for the scooter, with deliveries set to start later this week.

The special dual-toned colour options include a silver and black scheme and a pearl white and gold one. Meanwhile, the seat and inside of the apron on the latter receive a brown finish. The scooters also get blacked-out wheels, a pinstripe down the front mudguard and one along the side body panels with a ‘Limited Edition’ decal.

We believe the scooters will continue to be powered by the same 109.1cc engine that’s good for 8hp and 9Nm of torque. However, we do know that a heavily updated BS-VI compliant Activa is in the works. The limited-edition colour schemes could be a move to counter the recent slump in Activa sales.
