In a big update for scooter lovers, Honda has officially launched the 2025 edition of the popular Dio 125, and it’s already creating buzz across the Indian two-wheeler market. Priced at Rs 96,749 (ex-showroom, Pune), this updated model is brimming with improvements in both styling and technology and feels more premium than ever before. At Rs 8,798 more expensive than the older model, Honda is evidently making big bets on its smart tech popularity.
Powertrain & Performance
At its core, the new Honda Dio 125 features the trusted 125cc single-cylinder engine, now OBD2B emission norm compliant. The engine pumps in:
- 8.16 bhp of power
- 10.4 Nm of maximum torque
The ride configuration features:
Telescopic front forks for improved control and handling. Preload-adjustable rear monoshock for added comfort over rough roads.
Braking responsibilities are taken care of by a front disc and rear drum, fitted to sleek 12-inch alloy wheels for added stability and flair.
Key Features That Stand Out
The 2025 Dio 125 is no longer just about looks — it’s smarter too, thanks to Honda’s H-Smart technology:
- Keyless start and stop
- Smart find feature
- Anti-theft security system
- Side-stand engine cut-off sensor
- Combi-Brake System (CBS) for added safety

Variants & Colour Options
The Dio 125 now comes in several exciting new shades:
- Mat Marvel Blue Metallic
- Pearl Sports Yellow
- Pearl Igneous Black
- Pearl Deep Ground Gray
- Imperial Red
The top-end H-Smart variant is priced at Rs 1.02 lakh (ex-showroom Pune).
Final Thoughts
With upgraded safety, connectivity, and emission compliance, the new Honda Dio 125 is aimed at younger urban riders looking for both convenience and performance. While it costs more than before, the feature-rich offering and bold design make it a solid choice in the 125cc scooter segment. Honda has once again raised the bar in smart commuting.
