Yamaha NMAX 125 2024

Yamaha NMAX 125 2024

The NMAX 125 is and remains an uncomplicated scooter that works great - and now looks even snazzier. Just sit on it, ride off and feel good. Thanks to its low weight, it remains very nimble in curves, and manoeuvring in the city is child's play. The driving performance is okay, the chassis offers sufficient comfort and the braking system seems surprisingly mature. The cargo compartment under the seat cannot compete with the X-Max 125, but it offers a surprising amount of space compared to the direct competition. In the end, the moderate price is also fully justified.

Piaggio Liberty 125 2025

Piaggio Liberty 125 2025

The Piaggio Liberty 125 is the scooter for everyday use, the loyal companion that gets its rider to their destination safely and on a stable track, is easy on the wallet (compared to Vespas) but of course doesn't have quite as much character at the pub-talk. On the other hand, it is clearly the better scooter and convinces unspectacularly in everyday use - day after day. If Piaggio could now find more space for a normal helmet under the seat, then everyone would be really happy.

16 inch front wheel makes it stable yet agile

Model update with minor improvements at no extra charge

New topcase can be fitted without extras

Bright display, even in colour in the dark

Connectivity via smartphone possible

solid brakes, solid suspension with reserves

good price-performance ratio

Storage space under the seat too small for a full-face or large jet helmet
