The Honda Dio has for a long time now been the quintessential youngsters’ scooter. It has just the right amount of style and in its latest iteration has become more comfortable as well thanks to the new telescopic fork up front. It is easy to see just why the Honda Dio features so high up on the list of most youngsters. It is powered by a 109.51cc, single-cylinder engine that puts out 7.74bhp at 8,000rpm and 9.03Nm at 4,750rpm.

The Yamaha Fascino is among the most stylish scooters in this list. It has got curves all over and one would struggle to find a flat body panel.
