Mileage is one of the most crucial parameters when buying a motorcycle. Let’s start with a basic understanding of what mileage means and other things and proceed to find the best mileage bikes in India. The best mileage bikes have more search among customers over other motorcycles in the current booming petrol prices market scenario. We are here to help you make your choices much easier while choosing your bike with high fuel efficiency.
What is mileage or fuel efficiency, and how is it calculated?
Mileage means the total distance your motorcycle covers in one litre of fuel. In India, we calculate mileage in fuel consumption per litre. For example, if your bike covers a distance of 50km by consuming 1 litre of fuel, then 50km is your motorcycle mileage. To measure mileage, you must fill 1 litre of petrol into the empty tank. Then, reset the trip meter to zero and use the bike as usual. When the motorcycle stops due to fuel shortage, check the trip meter readings, which is the motorcycle’s mileage. Always make sure to do separate mileage tests in both city and highway conditions.
How to improve your motorcycle mileage?
- Get your bike service regularly
- Avoid rash driving
- Always keep a check on tire pressure and engine oil
- Use good quality fuel
- Avoid parking in sunlight
- Use the kill switch
- Keep your engine off at traffic signals
- Ride motorcycle at around 40-60km/h speed range
- Check carburetor settings
- Try to ride a motorcycle in higher gears (4 and above)
- Lubricate and clean the chain monthly
- Always ride the bike at a constant speed
Is engine capacity or displacement related to mileage?
Yes, the lower the engine capacity, the better the mileage. That’s why so many contenders in this list are from 100-125cc.
Does only mileage need to be considered while buying the motorcycle?
No, mileage is one of the significant factors, but we need to consider other factors like features, after-sales support, price and resale value, etc.
Are the mileage values mentioned in the best mileage bikes here 100% correct?
No, It depends upon the rider, road conditions, quality, vehicle maintenance, etc. Multiple people might get different mileage figures and are subject to change.

9. Honda Livo
The Honda Livo was recently launched as a spiritual successor to the CB Twister.

While the Twister was one of the most stylish 110cc commuter motorcycles in the Indian market, it failed to capture the buyers’ imagination. Honda has attempted to overcome this defeat by taking a toned-down approach towards styling, which, despite being less flashy than the CB Twister, makes the Livo look like a true blue-blooded steed.
Mileage: 60-64 kmpl
Displacement: 109.51 cc
Power: 8.67 bhp @ 7500 rpm
Fuel tank capacity: 9 litres
Price – ₹ 78,000 Onwards
