2016 NMAX

Hong Leong Yamaha yesterday launched the 2016 NMax scooter for the Malaysian market. With a 155 cc liquid-cooled single cylinder engine, the NMax enters a market niche already occupied by the Honda PCX150.

The NMax’s engine is good for 14.8 hp and torque is claimed at 14.4 Nm at 6,000 rpm. ABS will not be included on the CKD NMax, but braking will still be with 230 mm diameter discs front and rear. Fuel injection will ensure optimum power and peak fuel efficiency.

Gearbox is a dry-clutch CVT going to a v-belt final drive. Hong Leong Yamaha has priced the 2016 N-Max at RM8,812 including GST, but excluding road tax, insurance and number plates, compared to the Honda PCX150 at RM11,990.
