Honda H-Smart Technology
On December 21, 2022, Honda Motors Co. Ltd. registered the H-Smart trademark. It is a two-wheeler anti-theft system and alarm, according to the trademark document's goods and services description. For its entry-level two-wheelers like the Activa, Dio, Shine, and other bikes and scooters, Honda appears to be aiming to introduce the new anti-theft technology.
Theft of two-wheelers is a major issue in the nation. Two-wheeler owners will benefit from having anti-theft technologies and devices in their vehicles since it will make them feel less anxious. The new Honda H-Smart technology appears to be a smart connected technology that will alert the scooter owner via their phone as to the scooter's whereabouts. Additionally, if the scooter is stolen, this can assist in shutting down the ignition electronically.

The Honda Ignition Security System (H.I.S.S) is a security system that Honda provides for high-end motorcycles. H.I.S.S. is an electronic anti-theft device (also known as an immobiliser) that uses electronic control to automatically block the engine's starting. This feature is anticipated to be scaled back in the Honda H-Smart.
Verdict: Honda Motorcycle & Scooter will be able to increase the safety of their two-wheelers using the new H-Smart technology. The owners of scooters and motorcycles can be less concerned about the theft of their vehicles thanks to upcoming anti-theft technology. Honda might raise the cost of its two-wheelers in India along with the new functionality.
