Price: Jupiter wins by ₹4,000
Jupiter 110 is ~₹4,000 cheaper. That’s real money. But let’s follow the full cost picture.
Mileage: Activa 110 wins
Honda Activa 110’s PGM-FI fuel injection delivers ~55 kmpl, compared to Jupiter’s ~50 kmpl.
At ₹112/litre petrol and 1,200 km/month:

The Verdict: Honda Activa 125 Wins
