Honda Activa 125 vs Honda Super Cub C125

The Honda Activa 125 (2025) and the Honda Super Cub C125 (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda Activa 125 is a scooter with 124 cc, 8.3 hp and 107 kg; the Honda Super Cub C125 is a cub / underbone with 123 cc, 9.7 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 45.7 hp/ton versus 53.0 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda Super Cub C125 is 16% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda Activa 125 covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 36.16 s and the Honda Super Cub C125 in 39.63 s; the Honda Activa 125 is quicker by 3.47 s. In the 60-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 17.9 m for the Honda Activa 125 (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 16.9 m for the Honda Super Cub C125 (with ABS). The Honda Super Cub C125 stops 1.0 m shorter. The standard 60-0 test is used because one calculated top speed is below 110 km/h. Calculated top speed: 90 km/h (manufacturer claim) versus 93 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Honda Activa 125 and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda Super Cub C125. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
