Engine Performance and Mileage 9

The 109.51cc fan-cooled, 4 Stroke, SI engine that powers the Honda Dio complies with BS6, and it is coupled to a clutch-type automatic gearbox. The motor produces 7.65 horsepower of power and 9 Nm of torque. The motor has good beginning acceleration and gives passable performance for city commuting. The Dio, like every other 110cc scooter in its class, does not have a particularly strong top-end performance. The engine does, however, achieve a high speed of about 83 kmph, however it takes a long time to get there from the 70 kmph point. The car's high-speed stability is also subpar.

Additionally, the BS6 motor has been improved to the point that it no longer has an audible idle tone. Although the footpeg, floorboard, and handleboard are barely vibrated while riding at moderate speeds, the scooter does seem a little rough. However, when the speed rises, the ride quality significantly improves.

 

A sensor-based PGM-FI system on the Dio maintains the ideal fuel-air ratio. This aids in the engine's efficient combustion, which produces a stable output of power and increased mileage. The Dio is now a fuel-efficient scooter with a range of 48–53 km per litre under typical riding circumstances because of the PGM-FI technology.

Summary

The Honda Dio offers good performance with a great pick-up. The scooter is also quite fuel-efficient and it delivers around 48-53 kmpl mileage in real-world riding conditions.

Dio engine specifications:

Mileage	48 kmpl
Engine Displacement	109.51 cc
Top Speed	83 kmph
Power	7.75 bhp @ 8000 rpm
Torque	9.03 Nm @ 5250 rpm

Tyres, Brakes and Features 8

Honda Dio's foundation is an underbone-style frame with great stiffness. A telescopic fork at the front and a 3-step adjustable type spring-loaded hydraulic suspension at the back handle the scooter's suspension functions. The Honda Dio provides a comfortable and steady ride. Speed limits or damaged sections of road are easily crossed by it.

 

Drum brakes of 130 mm in size are used on both the front and back of the Dio. The Combi-brake System (CBS), which automatically applies the front brake to stop the scooter while you use the rear drum brake, works in conjunction with the braking system to stop the vehicle. This guarantees effective braking and helps the cyclist stop suddenly.

The Dio also gets tubeless tyres in the front and rear. The front tyre is sized 90/90-12 54J, whereas, the rear tyre is of the size 90/100-10 53J. Tyres of these sizes are known for providing good resistance against aquaplaning and should ensure a good amount of grip on bad sections of the road. 

On the features front, ACG quiet starting, side stand engine inhibitor, external fuel filler cap, dual function switch combining seat and fuel lid opener, front pocket, and a new DC LED headlight are additional highlights for the new Dio. It's interesting to note that it also keeps the completely digital instrument cluster with additional data like fuel range, average fuel efficiency, and real-time fuel efficiency.

Summary

The Honda Dio packs in decent hardware and offers a good ride quality. The Dio is also quite feature-loaded.

Dio features:

GPS & Navigation	No
USB charging port	No
Touch Screen	No
Instrument Console	Digital
