Yamaha Neo's
About
The Yamaha Neos is an electric scooter designed to replace traditional 50cc ICE scooters, but it has been tailored for the Indian market with some key modifications. It features a brushless DC hub motor that produces 2.5 kW in standard mode and 1.58 kW in eco mode, with top speeds of 40 kmph and 35 kmph respectively. The scooter boasts a removable battery design, which is a significant convenience, allowing users to charge the battery indoors. The battery setup delivers a range of 100-115 km on a single charge, with standard charging taking around 8 hours and DC fast charging reducing this to just 1 hour. The Neos also includes features like keyless start, a small LCD instrument cluster that can be paired with the Yamaha MyRide app, and a comfortable riding position. With its ergonomic design, alloy wheels, and stylish appearance, the Yamaha Neos aims to provide a blend of performance, comfort, and style, making it a strong contender in the Indian electric scooter market.

Our take on this /// Verdict
The Yamaha Neos, although initially designed for the European market, is set to make its mark in India with some significant tweaks to cater to local conditions. My experience with this scooter has been mixed, but it does offer several compelling features. The Neos is stylish, with a high-quality finish that Yamaha is known for, and it comes in two attractive color options. The scooter is extremely light and well-balanced, making it suitable for riders of all sizes. It boasts a powerful brushless DC hub motor, delivering 2.5 kW in standard mode and 1.58 kW in eco mode, which is impressive for its segment. However, the top speed of 40 kmph in standard mode and 35 kmph in eco mode might be a bit limiting for some users. The scooters handling is smooth and quiet, with a tight turning circle, which is a bonus for urban riding. Despite its limitations, the Neos is a great commuter scooter, especially with its easy charging system and removable battery design. However, its pricing in India might be a hurdle, as it competes with other established electric scooters in the market.
Price
The Yamaha Neos is expected to be launched in India on January 14, 2025, with an ex-showroom price starting at around Rs 2.5 lakhs. This pricing places it in a competitive but somewhat premium segment of the electric scooter market in India. When considering the on-road price, you can expect to add another Rs 10,000 to Rs 20,000, depending on the state and local taxes, bringing the total to approximately Rs 2.6 to Rs 2.7 lakhs. While the price is steep compared to some of its competitors like the Ather 450X or the Bajaj Chetak, the Neos offers unique features such as its integrated power unit and a potentially longer range when manufactured in India. However, the price needs to be competitive to attract a significant market share, especially given the subsidies available for electric vehicles in India.
Mileage
Tuesday, 19 November 2024 06:46 PM
The mileage of the Yamaha Neos in India is a significant selling point. With a claimed range of 100-115 km on a single charge, it outperforms many of its competitors. This range is achieved thanks to the integrated power unit and the super-powered battery setup. The standard mode offers a slightly lower range compared to eco mode, but it still provides ample mileage for daily commutes. This makes the Neos an attractive option for those concerned about running costs and mileage, especially considering the rising fuel prices and the environmental benefits of electric vehicles.
