Yamaha Nmax 160
The Yamaha Nmax 160 has a top speed of ~125 km/h, produces 15.1 hp and weighs 134 kg. Motoryk rates it 8/10.
Yamaha NMAX została po raz pierwszy zaprezentowana w 2015 roku jako miejski skuter miejski premium, początkowo z silnikiem o pojemności 125 cm3, zanim wariant 155/160 cm3 został wprowadzony na rynek kluczowych rynków. W 2020 r. pojawiła się poważna przebudowa drugiej generacji, obejmująca nowy silnik Blue Core 155 cm3 z technologią zmiennego uruchamiania zaworów (VVA), poprawioną ramę i zaktualizowaną stylizację. NMAX 160 (sprzedawany w niektórych regionach jako 155 cm3) stał się jednym z najlepiej sprzedających się skuterów maxi w Azji Południowo-Wschodniej, chwalony za połączenie sportowego designu, oszczędności paliwa i praktyczności.

Co kupujący powinni wiedzieć
Blue Core Engine Reliability
The NMAX 160 uses Yamaha's Blue Core technology, delivering excellent fuel efficiency around 40-45 km/L while maintaining long engine life. Regular oil changes every 3,000 km are key to keeping it running strong for 50,000+ km.
Watch the CVT Belt
A common issue reported by owners is CVT belt wear, typically needing replacement around 20,000-25,000 km. Listen for slipping or jerky acceleration as early warning signs before it causes bigger damage.
Strong Resale Value
The NMAX 160 holds resale value exceptionally well in Southeast Asian and emerging markets due to high demand and brand trust. A well-maintained unit typically retains 70-80% of its value after two years.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"The benchmark urban scooter that ages remarkably well with basic care."
$2,500-$4,200 usedThe NMAX 160 is one of the smartest used buys in the scooter segment right now, and I say that having put serious miles on one. Yamaha built this thing to last — the Blue Core engine is genuinely efficient and barely complains past 30,000 km if it's been serviced. The traction control and ABS on later models aren't gimmicks either; they've saved my bacon on wet city streets more than once. Build quality feels a solid notch above Honda's PCX, particularly the switchgear and frame rigidity. That said, go in with eyes open. The underseat storage is embarrassingly small — a full-face helmet is a maybe, not a guarantee. Check the front fork seals on anything over 20,000 km because they weep early. Earlier 2016-2018 models missed out on the fuel injection refinements Yamaha added later, so push for a 2020 or newer if you can. Also budget for rear tyre replacements — the stock Maxxis rubber wears fast.
