Verdict

The 250 Duke continues to be powered by a BS6 compliant 248.8 cc single-cylinder engine which makes 30.50 bhp of power at 9250 rpm and 25 Nm of peak torque at 7250 rpm.

Pros Cons Honda Dio

Pros

  • Stylish scooter
  • Reliable
  • Decent performance

Cons

  • Lacks features
  • No disc brake option
  • Average build quality

Verdict

The Honda Dio is the most exported scooter from Honda to other markets. It is a stylish 110 cc that serves as a nice alternative to the Activa. The Dio lacks features and has an average build quality. But it makes up in the styling department, with fancy colours, cool graphics and sporty performance. The Dio could be the ideal scooter for college-goers and young professionals. The ownership cost is very close to that of the Honda Activa.
