Yamaha NMAX została wprowadzona w 2015 roku jako skuter miejski premium, początkowo wyposażony w silnik o pojemności 125 cm3, zanim wariant 155 cc/160 cm3 został wprowadzony na wybrane rynki. Poważne przeprojektowanie drugiej generacji nastąpiło w latach 2020-2021, wprowadzając bezkluczykowy zapłon, kontrolę trakcji i wyrafinowany silnik Blue Core z technologią zmiennego uruchamiania zaworów (VVA). NMAX 160 wyróżnia się sportową stylistyką, połączonymi funkcjami za pośrednictwem aplikacji Y-Connect oraz dużą popularnością w Azji Południowo-Wschodniej i Europie jako praktyczny, ale zorientowany na osiągi skuter maxi-scooter.

Co kupujący powinni wiedzieć
Blue Core Engine Reliability
The 155cc Blue Core engine is known for exceptional fuel efficiency (around 40-45 km/L) and long-term durability when serviced regularly. Owners report minimal mechanical issues well past 30,000 km with proper oil change intervals.
Watch the CVT Belt
The CVT drive belt is a common wear item that should be inspected every 8,000-10,000 km and typically replaced around 20,000-25,000 km. Neglecting this can lead to slipping transmission and costly repairs.
Strong Resale Value
The NMAX 160 holds its resale value better than most competitors in the premium scooter segment, often retaining 70-80% of its value after two years. Its popularity and widespread Yamaha dealer network make it easy to sell or trade.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"The sharpest sensible scooter money can buy used."
$2,800-$4,500 usedThe N-Max 160 is one of those scooters that genuinely surprises you. Yamaha got the balance right here — it's not trying to be a sportbike pretending to be a scooter, it's just a really well-sorted commuter that does its job with minimal drama. The 160cc Blue Core engine pulls smoothly through traffic, fuel economy hovers around 70mpg in real-world riding, and the underseat storage actually fits a full-face helmet. That's not nothing. Buying used, check the front fork seals and inspect the CVT belt — owners who ignored maintenance schedules show their sins quickly on these. The 2020+ refresh brought better suspension tuning and smartphone connectivity, so those are the years worth hunting. Pre-2020 bikes aren't bad, just softer around the edges. Watch for crash damage on the bodywork panels too, since replacements are pricier than you'd expect for a scooter.
