Yamaha Aerox 155

The Yamaha Aerox 155 is a sporty automatic scooter built for riders who want sharper performance and aggressive styling compared to standard city models. In our reliable scooter rental provider catalog it appears as a reference model for mid-capacity scooters that combine everyday practicality with a sport-bike attitude. Its 155 cc liquid-cooled engine with Variable Valve Actuation (VVA) delivers stronger midrange acceleration than typical scooters, making it suitable for riders who need extra confidence when carrying a passenger or tackling hilly roads outside Chiang Mai. The Aerox’s design emphasizes speed and control, with aerodynamic bodywork, LED headlights, and a digital instrument panel that add to its modern appeal. A larger fuel tank extends riding range, while under-seat storage provides space for essentials such as groceries or a helmet. Low, sporty ergonomics give the Aerox a distinct character, appealing to younger riders who want both practicality and performance in one package.

On Chiang Mai’s busy streets, the Aerox 155 feels nimble yet more planted than smaller scooters. Its sportier suspension tuning absorbs bumps without excessive softness, giving riders confidence at higher city speeds and on ring-road transfers. Brakes are strong and predictable, with ABS available on newer versions, which adds extra safety in wet or downhill conditions. The low stance and responsive handling make it easy to weave through traffic, though the firmer seat reminds riders of its sporty bias. In café districts and university neighborhoods, the Aerox often attracts attention thanks to its bold looks and distinctive sound.

For suburban commutes and light regional loops, the Aerox 155 shows its strengths. The VVA engine keeps power steady on climbs, making trips to hill viewpoints like Doi Suthep easier than on smaller scooters. Passengers benefit from a longer seat and firmer suspension, which hold up well even with added weight. Taller riders enjoy the extra legroom compared to entry-level models, though the low seating angle feels more aggressive than upright commuter scooters. While the Aerox performs admirably on shorter tours, its sport-focused ergonomics may feel less comfortable on all-day rides, where maxi-scooters offer better relaxation.

Fuel economy averages 38–45 km per liter, which is efficient given its sporty performance. The under-seat storage fits a half-face helmet or shopping bags, and a front power socket adds convenience for charging devices. Maintenance is straightforward, with Yamaha’s extensive Thai service network ensuring easy support and parts. Suspension and tires are optimized for paved surfaces, providing excellent grip on city and suburban roads, though rough rural paths can feel harsh at speed.
