DX Exclusive Tech Features

The DX trim adds Smart Key system, heated grips, and an electric windscreen adjuster over the standard TMAX, making it one of the most feature-rich maxi-scooters of its era.

🔧

Watch the Drive Belt

The CVT drive belt should be inspected every 8,000–10,000 km and replaced around 20,000 km; neglected belts can snap and cause costly damage to the variator assembly.

💰

Strong Resale Value

The TMAX consistently holds its value better than most scooters due to high demand and brand reputation, with well-maintained DX models retaining roughly 60–70% of original value after 3 years.
