HMSI was the first company to introduce BS-VI compliant products in the two-wheeler space. The company began the BS-VI transformation with the launch of the updated Activa 125 in September followed by the SP 125 in November last year. The company updated its highest selling model, the Activa (110) with BS-VI compliance earlier this month (January 2020).

Honda is proud to lead BS-VI transition in two-wheeler industry almost six months ahead of the deadline… The excitement will only grow as Honda’s BS-VI model line-up gets more robust and we move to 100% BS-VI production beginning February 2020.
