Honda’s Activa 125 is getting smarter with the introduction of the new H-Smart variant, and its details have been leaked. Here are the highlights: –
- Similar to the recently launched Honda Activa 6G H-Smart variant, the Activa 125 will also get a multi-function smartkey with keyless access and various other safety techs.
- As per the leaked information, the Honda Activa 125 H-Smart trim will get keyfob functions like Smart Unlock, Smart Start, Smart Find, and Smart Safe.
- Smart Unlock: It enables remote fuel lid and seat unlocking, and a keyless lock/unlocks of the handle within two metres of the scooter.
- Smart Start: This scooter does not require a key to start, as it has a knob to turn on the ignition and a button to start the engine.
- Smart Find: It helps locate the scooter in a parking lot. If you are within 10 metres of the scooter, you can trigger the turn indicators to flash by pressing a button on the keyfob.
- Smart Safe: This is essentially a proximity lock, which locks the scooter automatically when you walk 2 meters away from it.
