The Yamaha Aerox 155 is India’s most affordable performance-oriented scooter with a liquid-cooled engine. The Aerox 155 is packed with features like LED illumination with hazard light function, a digital LCD instrument cluster, smartphone connectivity via Yamaha’s Y-connect app, single-channel ABS and segment-first traction control as standard. As the suffix suggests, the Yamaha Aerox 155 is powered by a 155cc engine, borrowed from… you guessed it, the R15 V4!
The Aerox 155 rolls on 14-inch tyres sprung on a telescopic fork and twin shock absorbers.
The Aerox primarily rivals the Aprilia SXR 160, which fails to match the Yamaha’s features or power figures.
