Honda Activa CNG has officially made headlines with its CNG-powered launch, creating massive buzz among daily commuters and middle-class families. With petrol prices continuing to burn monthly budgets and electric scooters still facing charging and cost concerns, Honda’s decision to introduce a CNG Activa is being seen as a practical and timely move. By combining the country’s most trusted scooter with low-cost CNG fuel, Honda is targeting riders who want immediate savings without changing their riding habits.
Design and Build Quality
Honda Activa CNG retains the familiar and family-friendly Activa design that dominates Indian roads. The clean body panels, wide floorboard, and comfortable upright seating posture remain unchanged, ensuring ease of use for riders of all age groups. The CNG cylinder is safely integrated into the scooter’s structure with proper shielding, maintaining balance and stability. Build quality focuses on durability and long-term usage, keeping the scooter suitable for daily city commuting and rough urban conditions.

Mileage and CNG Performance
The Honda Activa CNG delivers an impressive 90–100Km/kg mileage on CNG, making it significantly cheaper to run than the petrol version. Performance is tuned for smooth city riding, offering calm acceleration and consistent power delivery for traffic-heavy routes. While it is not designed for aggressive riding, the scooter handles daily office commutes, school runs, and delivery work comfortably, with a strong focus on efficiency and reliability.
Range and Refuelling Convenience
With a full CNG tank, the Activa CNG offers a range of around 200–220Km, reducing the need for frequent refuelling. Refuelling takes just a few minutes at a CNG station, giving it a major advantage over electric scooters that require hours of charging. This makes the Activa CNG especially practical in cities with established CNG infrastructure, allowing riders to stay mobile without downtime.
Features and Safety Features
Honda Activa CNG comes equipped with essential features focused on daily usability, including a clear instrument cluster that displays fuel status and riding information. Safety remains a priority, with a strong chassis, reliable braking system, and certified CNG safety valves to prevent leaks. Honda’s proven engine reliability, adapted for CNG use, ensures smooth operation and peace of mind for long-term ownership.
Price and Ownership Advantage
Honda Activa CNG is priced between ₹95,000 and ₹1.05 lakh, slightly higher than the petrol version but far cheaper to run. With CNG costing significantly less than petrol, riders can save thousands of rupees every year on fuel alone. Over time, these savings easily offset the higher initial cost, making the Activa CNG one of the smartest choices for high-usage commuters looking to cut expenses without shifting to electric.
