Honda Dio 125 X Edition: Visual Updates

The most noticeable change on the Dio 125 X Edition is its refreshed styling. Honda has introduced a new matte paint option called Pearl Siren Blue With Pearl Deep Ground Gray.

A major upgrade on the Dio 125 X Edition is the addition of a TFT instrument cluster.
