Rental overview
The Yamaha Aerox 155 is the sportiest scooter in our fleet. A light body, a punchy launch at the lights and an aggressive sport-bike style. It is for riders who want to enjoy the ride, not just get from A to B.
The riding position leans forward more than on a PCX or NMAX and the seat is higher (about 79 cm): riders from around 165 cm tall will be comfortable, shorter riders may find it harder to reach the ground. The storage is roomy for a scooter this size, and the 5.5 L tank means more frequent fuel stops on long rides.
Who it suits
- dynamic riding in town and on winding roads
- young riders and anyone who cares about looks
- solo or two-up short trips
- riders who want a scooter with attitude
Who it does not suit
- shorter riders: the seat is about 79 cm
- long-distance days: the tank is small
- passengers who want a soft ride
Good to know
- The suspension is firmer than the NMAX’s: you feel every bump but it is tight in corners.
- Bright styling makes the bike easy to spot on the road.
How it rides in Phuket
The Aerox 155 is a sporty scooter: a low fairing, an active riding position and a brisk pull. It loves corners and suits riders who mostly go solo and want performance rather than comfort: early rides to viewpoints and along the coast road.
The seat is firmer and narrower than on the PCX and NMAX, and the 5.5 L tank means keeping an eye on fuel stops. For long two-up rides a roomier model is the better choice.
