The 2025 update also brought revised pricing - the DLX (now called STD) was priced at Rs 96,749 and the H-Smart at Rs 1,02,144 ex-showroom Pune at launch.

July 2023 - Original Dio 125 Launch Honda launched the Dio 125 in India in July 2023 at Rs 83,400 (Standard) and Rs 91,300 (Smart), positioning it as a 125cc sporty scooter to take on the TVS NTorq 125 and Suzuki Avenis 125.
