TVS Ntorq 150 vs Yamaha Aerox 155 : In India, motocross riders and scooters are no longer viewed as symbols of comfort and methods of transport. Today, the riders want performance, style, and technology in an everyday ride. The forthcoming TVS Ntorq 150 and Yamaha Aerox 155 are two scooters that answer the demand. They are both sporty, powerful scooters that have a cozy space between speed and convenience for the young rider. Let’s see how they stack up against each other.
More injuries and aggressiveness are expected in the TVS Ntorq 150, probably following the style pattern of the Ntorq family, but with sharper, sportier lines to match the bigger engine. Expect red-hot graphics and muscular posturing drawing the attention of all. The Aerox 155, meanwhile, is widely accepted as a scooter with design cues from a maxi-scooter. It sports a cramped body that fades into huge wheels, combination headlamps, and a feature that with a major portion of the sharp tail section has an air that seems quite premium and futuristic.
The new Ntorq 150 is expected to come with a new engine displacing 150cc, thus generating more power than the older 125cc variant. This entails quick acceleration and a good cruise, with good city manners for fair road use. The Yamaha Aerox 155 comes powered by a tested and proven 155cc liquid-cooled engine developing about 15 bhp. An Arso would call it a powerful scooter in terms of the class, thus enjoying the performance thrill with technology borrowed from Yamaha’s R15 Bike.
TVS has always loaded Ntorq with features, and the 150 should have Bluetooth-enabled navigation assist, digital display, riding modes, and LED lighting. Aerox 155 is also loaded, with features such as a fully digital instrument cluster, smartphone connectivity, LED lights, and smart key technology. Both scooters employ tech heavily, but Aerox renders a more cultured image, whereas the Ntorq seems to be built on a more value-for-money concept.
The Ntorq 150 will be sporty and fun while providing a good amount of comfort, making it practical on Indian roads. The Aerox 155 is stable on the highway and spirited riding, thanks to the larger wheels and stiff suspension action, which gets quite stiff on the bumps. If you ride mostly in the city, Ntorq may be more comfortable; the Aerox will be more at home out in open roads for spirited rides.
The pricing is expected to be between ₹1.2–1.3 lakh for the TVS Ntorq 150, whereas the Yamaha Aerox 155 is already on sale for around ₹1.4 lakh (ex-showroom).
If you want a feature-laiden scooter at an economical price, TVS Ntorq 150 is a smart choice. If you want premium design and performance reminiscent of a motorcycle, Yamaha Aerox 155 is the sassy choice among scooters.
