With an easy-to-use design and sporty MAX style – enhanced by high specifications and great value for money – this new lightweight Sport Scooter is an ideal choice for anyone looking for true freedom and the ability to go where they want, when they want.
Ever since Yamaha invented the Sport Scooter category with the launch of the legendary TMAX almost 25 years ago, the MAX range has led the market in terms of style, quality and appeal. The affordable new NMAX 125 gives the widest range of potential customers the opportunity to be part of the MAX family and experience the taste of a true Yamaha sport scooter that will transform their daily commute and make the city smaller and more accessible.
Special blend of style, practicality and economy

For a confident ride on low-grip surfaces, the Traction Control System (TCS) automatically adjusts the power level to the rear wheel to prevent wheel spin – and the lightweight 13-inch alloy wheels are fitted with a wide 130/70-13 rear tire and 110/70-13 front tire that provide plenty of grip, making this an ideal year-round urban commuter.
Responsive and economical 125cc EURO5+ engine
Developed using Yamaha’s advanced Blue Core technology, the economical 125cc EURO5+ engine is equipped with Start & Stop technology that minimizes fuel consumption for reduced emissions and lower running costs. The NMAX 125’s excellent fuel efficiency not only makes it one of the most cost-effective ways to get around – it also enables the 7.1-liter fuel tank to cover around 300km2 between refills. The 125cc 4-stroke engine’s quiet and responsive performance delivers smooth and seamless ‘throttle and go’ acceleration, making the NMAX 125 an ideal partner in the city and on the road for everyone from B license 1 drivers to experienced riders all looking for an economical, enjoyable and efficient way to get around.
