Top 5 Used Scooters To Buy Under Rs 60,000: Honda Activa, Honda Dio, Suzuki Access 125 And More

Sceptical about buying a used scooter? Let us help you out

India is one of the largest scooter markets in the world. This year we have had some interesting launches but with the new models, we witnessed massive price hikes as well. So, if you are on a lookout for an used scooter with a budget of about Rs 60,000, here are some trusty options:

Honda Activa
Model Year: 2017-2019
Approx Mileage: 20,000 to 25,000km
Honda’s breadwinner has been steadily topping sales charts even now. Given the popularity of the Honda Activa, you’ll find plenty of options in the used two-wheeler market, ranging from prices as low as Rs 10,000. However, for Rs 45,000 to Rs 50,000 you’ll find plenty of Activa 4G and Activa 5G models, and with a seat height of 765mm it is pretty accessible for riders of all heights. Given Honda’s reliability and the vast service network, you cannot go wrong with this one.

Honda Dio
Model Year: 2016-2017
Approx Mileage: 15,000 to 20,000km
The Honda Dio has been every youngster’s go-to scooter for over a decade thanks to its styling and low seat height of 765mm. If you too are smitten by its youthful design, you’ll find scores of options in the market. Just like with the Activa, there are plenty of cheap options available, however, given that the users are mostly youngsters, we’d suggest sticking to the newer and slightly lesser run models. A decently run, five-year old Honda Dio could be priced around Rs 40,000 to Rs 45,000.

Suzuki Access 125
Model Year: 2017-2018
Approx Mileage: 15,000 to 25,000km
This is the underdog of the scooter market. Though it looks far from a sporty scooter, it is the quickest scooter we have tested in the segment. And it is not just quickest, but offers generous space too. The Access’ bulletproof engine found its way to the Burgman 125 as well. Given that the Suzuki Access 125 has been in the market for a while, there are plenty of options available, with a 2017 or 2018 model costing anywhere between Rs 50,000 to Rs 55,000.

TVS Jupiter
Model Year: 2017-2019
Approx Mileage: 15,000 to 25,000km
The TVS Jupiter has become increasingly popular, selling over 57,000 units in March 2021. Its fuel-efficient and refined engine coupled with the comfortable ride quality has been wooing college-goers and older riders alike. If you are not looking to spend much on a used scooter, this is your best bet. You could get yourself a  three-year old TVS Jupiter for as low as Rs 35,000.

TVS Scooty Pep+
Model Year: 2017-2018
Approx Mileage: 5,000 to 10,000km
The TVS Scooty’s popularity coined the term “scooty” in our country. This scooter has been extremely popular, especially in the south, where the brand recently launched a limited edition version. If you are looking for an affordable option, the TVS Scooty pep+ fits the bill. The market is flooded with models just three or four years old with a price tag of around Rs 20,000! Now, that’s quite a steal if you ask us.
