In Malaysia, the Honda Vario 125 sits in the 125 cc scooter segment, featuring a single‑cylinder, SOHC, liquid‑cooled engine displacing 124.9 cc. It produces around 11.5 hp at 8,500 rpm and 11.7–11.74 Nm of torque at 5,000 rpm. Power is delivered via a CVT and belt drive to the rear wheel. The scooter rides on 14‑inch wheels (90/80 front, 100/80 rear) and uses a front hydraulic disc brake and rear drum brake with Honda’s Combined Braking System (CBS). Notable Malaysian highlights include its Energy Efficient Vehicle (EEV) certification, three‑star MyMAP safety rating, smart key keyless start with anti‑theft alarm and answer‑back, idle stop‑start, full LED lighting, USB charging port, 18‑litre under‑seat storage, and LCD instrument panel.
