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.
