December 2019 scooter sales didn’t quite kick up any dust. On the contrary, it’s less wheels to the ground.
No doubt, Honda Activa continues to lead the brigade. Sales is down 24.37 percent, down to 1,31,899 units, down from 1,74,393 units. That’s about a fourth lost in volume. MoM sales decline has been far more steep as sales fell by 80,265 units, down from 2,12,164 units. Last week, Honda Activa 6G BSVI was launched at a starting price of Rs. 63,912 (ex-sh New Delhi).
