Pros Cons Honda Dio

Pros

  • This 110cc engine produces a smooth power output that is essential for city riding duties.
  • Since it weighs about 105 kg, this scooter feels incredibly friendly for everyone.
  • Fitting a telescopic front suspension translates into improved stability over bad roads.
  • Honda’s silent ACG starter generator gives it that noise-free engine cranking.
  • If you opt for the top-end H-Smart variant, it uses a remote key fob for convenience and security.
  • The external fuel filler cap ensures that the rider does not need to lift the seat while refuelling.

Cons

  • If you choose the base variant, you will get a dim halogen bulb instead of an LED headlight.
  • Since there is no option of a disc brake setup, one must rely on the front and rear drum brakes.
  • Lower variants have basic analogue instrument panel and miss out on a digital readout.
  • The front floorboard is not spacious and restrictive in case you need to carry large grocery bags.
  • The rider will feel vibrations from this scooter as it goes beyond 70 kmph mark.

Verdict

The 110cc Honda Dio is the choice for younger buyers who want Honda’s bulletproof reliability (the Activa platform), but with a younger appeal. It delivers a lively performance in traffic while keeping running costs reasonably low. But we also admit that the average plastic quality and small luggage floorboard can affect its practicality. All-in-all, the addition of the H-Smart keyless system makes it a highly competent urban tool. For college students or young commuters searching for zero headaches, it makes immense sense.
