Honda launches New Dio Scooter in Bangladesh

Bangladesh Honda Private Limited has launched the new Honda Dio, a 110cc automatic scooter designed for convenient, comfortable and stylish urban commuting, under the tagline “Smart vibe, Easy ride.” 

The new Honda Dio features a 109.51cc PGM-FI engine producing 10.82 PS of power at 8,000 rpm and 9.03 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. It comes with an automatic clutch, allowing riders to simply twist and go without manual gear shifting.

The scooter is equipped with an Idling Stop System (ISS) and ACG Silent Starter for smoother stop-and-go riding and quieter restarts. Its Combi Brake System (CBS) provides more effective and stable braking, while a side-stand engine cut-off adds an extra safety feature.

Commenting on the launch, Mr Susumu Morisawa, Managing Director & CEO of Bangladesh Honda Private Limited, said: "Today, we are opening a new chapter for two-wheelers in Bangladesh. More young people, women and men alike, including first-time riders, are looking for mobility that fits naturally into their everyday lives. Our answer is a new SMART transportation solution for the city through easy to ride, confidence on every journey, convenience for city life, and now more within reach with greater safety. Through the localization in Bangladesh we can proudly provide Dio at a reasonable price maintaining Honda quality.”

Designed for city traffic, Honda Dio has a 765 mm seat height, with a narrow width of 680 mm and weighs 101.5kg. It also offers telescopic front and unit swing rear suspension.

For added convenience, the scooter comes with 18-litre under-seat storage, an open glovebox, floorboard space and a 15W Type-C charging port. An external fuel lid allows refueling without opening the seat. The new design also features a DRL headlamp.

Mr Shah Muhammad Ashequr Rahman, Chief Marketing Officer, Bangladesh Honda Private Limited said: “The new Dio brings together easy handling, convenience and style in one smart package. With its automatic transmission, low seat height, light weight and compact design, it is easy to control in city traffic, while PGM-FI and the Idling Stop System help riders save fuel and cost. Dio delivers a smart and comfortable riding experience for everyday commuters.”

Bangladesh Honda is offering a two-year or 20,000km warranty, whichever comes earlier, along with five free services and two paid services.

The new Dio is available in Mat Marvel Blue Metallic, Mat Axis Gray Metallic and Imperial Red Metallic colors. The market price of the new Honda Dio in Bangladesh has been set at BDT 157,000.
