Context
Why does this story matter?
The 2022 Yamaha NMax 155 offers good looks, several electronic riding aids, and decent performance. It should attract a lot of buyers in the Chinese market. It is unclear whether the two-wheeler will arrive in India. Provided it does, it will take on rivals such as the Suzuki Burgman Street, Keeway Vieste 300, and the Aprilia SXR 160.
Design
The scooter has a USB port and windscreen
The 2022 Yamaha NMax 155 has a headlight-mounted front apron, DRLs mounted on the fairings, a raised windscreen, a single-piece seat with a pillion grab rail, and a side-mounted exhaust. The maxi-scooter packs an all-LED setup for lighting, a Bluetooth-enabled digital instrument console, a USB charging socket, and rides on designer blacked-out wheels. It is offered in seven color options.
Information
It runs on a 15hp, 155cc engine
The new Yamaha NMax 155 maxi-scooter draws power from a 155cc, liquid-cooled engine sourced from the Aerox 155. The mill generates a maximum power of 15.14hp and a peak torque of 13.7Nm.
Safety
It gets dual-channel ABS
To ensure the safety of the rider, the 2022 Yamaha NMax 155 is equipped with disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, along with dual-channel ABS and traction control to avoid skidding while braking. Suspension duties on the two-wheeler are taken care of by telescopic forks on the front end and gas-charged twin shock absorbers on the rear end.
