Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 - Top features

Yamaha Mio range of scooters is doing very well in the Philippines. The top-end model of this range is the Mio Aerox 155 which is also one of the most advanced and feature-laden scooters that Yamaha has to offer in the country right now. So, what exactly is the Mio Aerox 155 all about? Let’s find out in this story where we are going to discuss some of its top features.

Sporty aesthetics

Most of the automatic scooters in this range are designed to lure in the more younger generation of the population. And the Mio Aerox 155 is not left behind. Yamaha has done a brilliant job in making sure that the Mio Aerox 155 attracts as many eyeballs as possible. It features an aggressive and sporty styling. The front has a nice and sharp fairing that houses the even sharper LED headlights. The side profile looks spectacular thanks to the step-up single-piece seat and the sporty blacked-out exhaust. Coming to the rear end of the scooter, we are greeted by a single-piece LED tail lamp that fits perfectly with the sporty ambience.

Attractive graphics

This is another way of making a product look more attractive. Yamaha has put on some really good graphics on the Mio Aerox 155 which make it stand out of the crowd. We specifically like the branding done at the side of the scooter.

Advanced 155 cc engine

Powering the Mio Aerox 155 is Yamaha’s advanced 155 cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine which has been tuned to churn out 15 PS of max power at 8,000 revs per minute and 13.8 Nm of peak torque at 6,250 revs per minute. Yamaha has integrated its Blue Core technology which provides optimum combustion, increases cooling efficiency, and reduces power loss. All this gives you more power, more fuel economy, and less fuel consumption.

Variable Valve Actuation (VVA)

It’s not just the Blue Core technology in the Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 specs sheet that impresses everyone, Yamaha has implemented the Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) as well. This system is designed to provide a good spread of torque throughout the rev range. So you get a nice pull even at the low revs which really helps in heavy traffic conditions.

LED dual headlights and tail lamp

Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 comes with dual LED headlamps that not only look cool and sporty but also work brilliantly. They light up the dark pretty well. The same goes for the LED tail lamp. It has a nice design that goes with the design of the scooter. It is bright enough which makes you visible from a distance. And since both the headlight and tail lamp are LEDs, they consume less power thus, reducing the load on the battery.

LCD digital meter

The large 5.8-in fully digital LCD instrument console on the Mio Aerox 155 provides detailed information. It has a speedometer, odometer, fuel level indicator, VVA indicator, tachometer, etc. There are a handful of necessary tell-tale lights placed around the meter panel. Yamaha has also made sure that the layout of the information of the digital display is in such a manner that it doesn’t lose out on the sporty character of the scooter.

Large under-seat storage

Having large under-seat storage becomes a necessity for such scooters. It’s a feature that most of the customers look out for. Thankfully, the Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 has 25-litres of under-seat storage capacity. It is large enough to accommodate a full-size or full-face helmet along with a few other of your personal belongings.

Electric power socket

The Mio Aerox 155 also comes with an electric power socket so that you can keep your smartphone charged at all times. Smartphones have become a very important part of our daily lives and we do tend to panic when they are running out of battery. One of the most important features of a smartphone that many of us use daily is navigation. We use it to travel within as well as outside of the city. This will be possible only when your smartphone is charged. And you don’t need to worry about that in the Mio Aerox 155.

These were the top features of the Mio Aerox 155 which we think should be more than sufficient to familiarise you with the scooter. Available in three color options - Race Blue, Vibrant Orange and Black Raven - the Yamaha Mio Aerox 155 price here in the Philippines is Php 99,800. There’s even a higher variant available called the Mio Aerox 155 S. It adds a couple of new colours and graphics, ABS, start-stop system, and smart key system. It is priced at Php 122,900.
