^NEW Dio: Technologically ahead of time!

India’s most preferred moto-scooter is ahead of its time and comes equipped with Combi Brake System (CBS) with Equalizer technology. (As per Government regulations, CBS will be mandatory on all two-wheelers up to 125cc engine capacity from April 1, 2018).

The unique Equalizer in Honda’s advanced Combi Brake System (CBS) distributes braking force proportionately between front and rear wheels simultaneously by pressing just the left lever. This results in reduced braking distance & improved balance, leading to more confident riding compared to conventional braking.

Powered by Honda’s trusted 109cc Honda Eco Technology (HET) engine, the ^NEW Dio is now both AHO and BS-IV compliant.
