Hero Maestro Edge would be a better option over Honda Activa 3G as it comes with loads of extra features for the same price as that of the 3rd generation Activa. Maestro Edge comes with a claimed mileage of 65.8 kmpl whereas Activa claims a 60 kmpl mileage only. It gets telescopic front shock absorbers whereas the Activa uses spring loaded type suspension, making it outdated in front of the Maestro Edge. The front wheel of the newcomer is 12 inch in diameter, providing better and stable ride. The Maestro Edge comes with alloy wheels, tubeless tyres, mobile charging point, underseat luggage lamp, immobilizer and designer LED tail light. It even gets a sporty and attractive design than the Activa 3G. All this comes with a price tag of INR 49,500-50,700.

Hero Maestro Edge is a better option over the current Maestro. The basic reason behind the fact comes out to be the engine of the scooter, which would be a 125 cc unit on the new one. It is expected to produce 9.1 BHP and 10 NM of torque. The scooter will come with a comfortable 770 mm of seat height and 155 mm of ground clearance. A disc brake is expected for the front wheel, or even it can be offered with an optional disc. The rear will get the 130 mm of drum brake. The scooter will rival the Activa 125 and we expect it to be for INR 55,000. The new product will surely outrun the older one, making good sales if priced much aggressively.
