Yamaha MIO 125 : Yamaha has once again redefined urban mobility with the launch of the MIO 125, the world’s first geared scooter. Blending the ease of a scooter with the engagement of a manual transmission, this innovative model caters to riders who seek both comfort and control. Whether navigating city streets or cruising on highways, the MIO 125 promises a unique riding experience that bridges the gap between traditional scooters and motorcycles.

Sleek and Sporty Design

The MIO 125 has a fierce, modern look. Sharp lines, an LED headlamp and a small digital instrument cluster make it look futuristic. It comes in eye-catching colors, such as Red, Blue, Matte Black and White, designed to stand out. Here, the scooter’s hybrid construction combines the agility of a moped with the sturdy posture of a street bike. Plus premium touches such as alloy wheels and tubeless tires make their own contribution to the fashion and function of the RZ.

Power with Control: Motor and Performance

It’s powered by a 125cc air-cooled single cylinder engine which produces 11 PS and 10.4 Nm of torque. What separates MIO 125 with other bikes is its 5-speed manual transmission enables riders to easily control speed and fuel consumption. This is an interesting combination, offering the convenience of something like a CVT scooter, but also the mechanical feel of a regular motorcycle gearbox. Topline performance, for darting in and out of traffic or cruising on the open road, the MIO 125 delivers smooth, dependable power.

It also has a well-upholstered and upright riding position that’s comfortable during longer rides. Thanks to the scooter’s compact turning radius, it is easier to weave your way through cramped streets, and its well-rounded weight distribution provides confidence on both ends of the spectrum.

The New Name In Sleek, Modern Exciting Features For Convenience & Safety

  • Base Model (₹83,000 ex-showroom): Includes essentials like a digital meter and 5-speed transmission.
  • Deluxe Model (₹88,000 ex-showroom): Upgrades with LED lighting, USB charging, and a front disc brake.
