The electric scooter segment in India is heating up. Two legacy manufacturers, Honda and Suzuki, have finally entered the space, bringing in the electrified versions of one of their most popular nameplates in the country. While Honda has already launched its first electric scooter, the Activa e:, Suzuki is preparing to announce the pricing of the e-Access soon. Despite following a very different approach for their electrification strategy, both scooters will lock horns in the market and here’s how these models stack up against each other in terms of battery, range, power output and more.
Honda Activa e: vs Suzuki e-Access : Battery & range
The Honda Activa e: comes with two swappable 1.5 kWh lithium-ion batteries paired with a 6 kW motor that churns out 22 Nm of torque. It claims a range of 102 km on a single charge and reaches a top speed of 80 kmph. But instead of offering home charging, Honda provides access to its e:SWAP stations where riders can exchange their depleted batteries with fully charged ones.
On the other hand, Suzuki’s e-Access opts for a fixed battery setup, using a 3.07 kWh LFP battery that offers a certified range of 95 km. The electric motor produces 4.1 kW of power and 15 Nm of torque, with a top speed of 71 kmph. Suzuki provides multiple charging options: at home, it takes about 6 hours and 42 minutes for a full charge using the portable charger, while a DC fast charger can juice it up fully in just 2 hours and 12 minutes.

It comes with a digital instrument cluster offering smartphone connectivity for navigation, live traffic updates, and call/SMS alerts. Other highlights include a USB charging port, all-LED lighting, and fast charging support.
