In India there’s been a lot of flurry surrounding the electric scooter segment, but when it comes to IC-engine scooters and the premium performance-oriented scooter space, in particular, there’s not a lot that’s gone on. Yamaha caught us all by surprise earlier this year, when it took on this issue, with the Aerox 155. A glance at the scooter’s spec sheet reveals it to be the most powerful scooter in its class in our country. A Yamaha scooter powered by the R15 engine… sounds like fun, doesn’t it? And it is! Just how much fun? Let’s find out.
Design
With any premium two wheeler, looks play an important factor and that’s something the Aerox 155 definitely has going for it. Now this scooter is very aggressively styled. It’s got a very aggressively shaped front end as you can see from the design, the front apron protrudes and it has a split head lamp unit with very menacing looking DRLs. Also this paint scheme is the grey vermillion paint scheme which is one of the three colour options that you can have the scooter in. This one in particular comes with orange 14-inch alloy wheels which include a 110/80 front and chunky 140/80 section rear tyre and this adds to the imposing stance of the scooter.
