Honda Dio 125 On-Road Price in Chennai (2026)
The on-road price of Honda Dio 125 in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, is ₹1,10,762 for the base STD variant. This breaks down into an ex-showroom price of ₹93,289, road tax of ₹7,463 at 8% of the ex-showroom price, insurance charges of ₹6,510, and dealer handling and documentation fees of ₹3,500.
The road tax in Tamil Nadu is calculated as a percentage of the ex-showroom price and paid once at the time of registration at your local RTO. Insurance comprises third-party (TP) cover at ₹3,851 - which is mandatory under the Motor Vehicles Act - and own-damage (OD) cover at ₹2,659, which is highly recommended to protect against theft, accidents, and natural damage.
On a 3-year loan at 10.5% interest with a 20% down payment, the EMI for the Honda Dio 125 in Chennai works out to approximately Rs 2,600-2,800 per month depending on the variant. Most authorised Honda dealers in Chennai work with HDFC Bank, Bajaj Finance, and TVS Credit. Compare quotes from at least two lenders before finalising, as interest rates vary.
If you're upgrading from an older scooter, ask your dealer about Honda's exchange bonus - typically Rs 3,000-5,000 during festive season - which can reduce your effective on-road price further. Some dealers in Chennai also bundle a free first service or accessories package; it's worth negotiating before you sign.
