    Dimension

    The Yamaha Nmax Turbo is 1,935 millimeters (mm) long; 740 mm wide; and 1,200 mm tall with a 770 mm seat height, 135 mm ground clearance, and 1,340 mm wheelbase.

    Design updates

    Up front, the new Yamaha Nmax Turbo comes with a bolder appearance, complemented by the full LED lighting system with dual projectors. More aesthetic upgrades are seen at the rear — primarily on the tail lamp appearance.

    The scooter also features a redesigned cockpit that is equipped with a new handlebar design and an updated thin-film-transistor digital display.

    Performance upgrades

    Powering the new Yamaha NMax Turbo is the tweaked version of the existing Blue Core 155cc engine with variable valve actuator that can dish out 15 horsepower (hp) and 14.2 Newton-meters (Nm) of torque. For comparison, the Philippine-spec Yamaha Nmax also has the same hp delivery but a slightly-lower output in terms of oomph (13.9 Nm).

    Yamaha is attributing the additional pulling power to the presence of the latest Yamaha Electric Continuously Variable Transmission (YECVT) technology. The said system replaces the conventional CVT, which gives riders of the new Yamaha NMax turbo two ride modes: town commuting  and sport touring.

    In addition, the new Yamaha Nmax Turbo has the T-Shift feature that provides three drive levels (low, medium, and high). Managed via the operation button under the handlebar’s left portion, the technology gives a turbo sensation and can also be used to decelerate during downhills and entering corners.
