Those who have been put off by the high price of the X-Max 125 can now be happy about the NMAX. Although not quite as sporty, it is almost 2000 euros cheaper - and not significantly worse made. The performance is okay, the chassis offers sufficient comfort and the braking system has ABS on board as standard. The cargo compartment under the seat cannot compete with that of the X-Max 125, but compared to the direct competition, the compartment offers a surprising amount of space.
