Yamaha has officially launched the 2025 version of its popular performance scooter, the Aerox 155, in India. This year, the scooter gets fresh new colors, OBD-2B compliance, and a few practical updates that make it more attractive to urban riders and young enthusiasts. With its sporty design and proven 155cc engine borrowed from the R15, the Aerox 155 continues to stand out in the premium scooter segment.
Let’s take a closer look at what the 2025 Yamaha Aerox 155 offers.
Design & Style
The Aerox 155 has always been known for its aggressive and sporty styling — and the 2025 update keeps that DNA alive. The overall silhouette remains the same, but Yamaha has added new color options this year. These include:
-
Racing Blue
-
Silver
-
Metallic Black
-
Grey Vermillion
These fresh color choices give the scooter a more premium and modern look, especially for younger riders who love visual appeal. The sharp front apron, split LED headlamp, aerodynamic lines, and integrated grab rails give the Aerox an edgy and dynamic appearance.
It looks less like a traditional scooter and more like a compact sports bike with a step-through frame. The 14-inch wheels also add to its sporty stance.
Engine & Performance
One of the biggest highlights of the Yamaha Aerox 155 is its engine. The scooter continues to use the 155cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine based on the Yamaha R15’s powertrain. It now complies with OBD-2B norms, making it cleaner and future-ready.
The engine produces:
-
14.8 PS of power at 8000 rpm
-
13.9 Nm of torque at 6500 rpm
This is one of the most powerful engines in the scooter segment in India. It’s paired with a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission), which makes city rides smooth and effortless.
Acceleration is quick, and the Aerox can comfortably cruise at higher speeds. Whether you’re overtaking traffic or riding on open roads, performance is never an issue.
Ride & Handling
Yamaha has tuned the Aerox 155 for urban agility and high-speed stability. The scooter uses a telescopic front fork and unit swing rear suspension, which work well for both city and highway conditions.
The 14-inch alloy wheels with wide tubeless tyres offer excellent grip. Braking duties are handled by:
-
Front disc brake (230mm) with ABS
-
Rear drum brake
While dual-channel ABS would have been better, the single-channel system works fine for daily use. The handling is nimble, especially in traffic, and the suspension offers decent comfort on broken roads.
The underbone frame gives the Aerox a low center of gravity, improving overall balance during turns.
Features & Tech
The 2025 Aerox 155 is not just about power — it also packs modern features that today’s riders expect. Here’s what’s on offer:
-
Fully digital LCD instrument cluster
-
Bluetooth connectivity via Yamaha Y-Connect app
-
Call, SMS, email alerts
-
Maintenance recommendation
-
Fuel consumption tracker
-
Hazard light switch
-
Smart motor generator for silent start
One of the new additions is the traction control system (TCS), which is a rare feature in this segment. It helps prevent wheel slippage, especially during sudden acceleration on slippery roads.
The scooter also has a multi-function key, USB charging socket, and a 24.5-litre under-seat storage — big enough for most full-face helmets.

Its 5.5-litre fuel tank is slightly on the smaller side, but still offers a decent range for daily commutes. Yamaha has optimized the fuel injection and variable valve actuation (VVA) system to balance power and efficiency.
Price & Variants
Yamaha has priced the 2025 Aerox 155 quite competitively given its features and performance.

It comes in a single variant, but the new color options give buyers more visual choices. Considering the kind of technology and engine it offers, the price is justified for those who want more than a basic scooter.
