Honda was one of the first two-wheeler
companies in India to start rolling out updated BS-VI compliant products. The
last Honda scooter that underwent BS-IV to BS-VI conversion was the Dio. The
BS-VI 2020 Honda Dio was launched in February 2020. Now, the Japanese company
has released its TVC.
The commercial of the 2020 Dio highlights
some of its new features like LED DRL or position light, bright LED headlamp
and fully-digital instrument cluster that shows information like speed,
distance to empty, average fuel efficiency, real-time fuel efficiency, trip
meters, odometer, clock, service due indicator, etc.
The commercial also highlights the new Honda Dio’s large front pocket which can
easily accommodate a water bottle, external fuel lid for easy refuelling, side
stand engine cut off feature, telescopic front suspension, silent start with
ACG, split grab rail and advanced engine with Honda’s ESP technology.
The Honda Dio has always been one of the
most dynamic-looking scooters available in the country. In its BS-VI avatar, it
continues being that. In fact, it has become even better than before. It is
powered by a 109.51 cc single-cylinder engine that comes equipped with Honda’s
Programmed Fuel-Injection (PGM-Fi) for better throttle response, performance,
and fuel efficiency. This engine produces 5.71 kW or 7.79 PS of maximum power
at 8,000 rpm and generates 9 Nm of peak torque at 4,750 rpm.
The BS-VI Honda Dio is available in two
variants - Standard and Deluxe. The former is priced at INR 59,990* and comes
in 4 colour options - Matte Axis Grey Metallic, Candy Jazz Blue, Sports Red and
Vibrant Orange. The Deluxe variant of the 2020 Dio retails at INR 63,340* and
is offered in 3 colours - Matte Sangria Red Metallic, Matte Axis Grey Metallic
and Dazzle Yellow Metallic.
