First of Hong Leong Yamaha Malaysia’s new releases for 2020 is the Yamaha X-Max 250 scooter, priced at RM21,500 excluding road tax, insurance and registration. There are three new colours on offer with the matte theme from previous featuring strongly, in this year’s case, white, grey and blue.
The single-cylinder, four-stroke, SOHC power plant powering the X-Max displaces 250 cc and produces 22.5hp at 7,000 rpm and 24.3 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. Fuelling for the X-Max is by EFI with Yamaha’s Blue Core engine design giving better power and fuel economy.
As is usual for scooters, a CVT transmission belt drive gets power to the ground. The X-Max rolls on a 15-inch front wheel wearing a 120/70 tyre while the rear uses a 14-inch hoop shod in 140/70-14 rubber.
Fuel is carried inside a 13.2-litre tank and under the seat is a storage compartment large enough for two-full-face helmets. Keyless start is standard and other rider conveniences include a 12-volt outlet inside the front fairing, ABS and switchable traction control.
LED lighting is used throughout the X-Max and an LCD instrument panel is located between two analogue gauges, providing the rider with all necessary information. The 2020 Yamaha X-Max is available for purchase at authorised Hong Leong Yamaha Malaysia dealers from January 2020.

RM22k for a scooter? Mahal gila!
Fair enough..What price do you reckon is cheap or reasonable?Also name me a 250 scooter or motorbike that comes with traction control,ABS, keyless and charging point under RM20k but no Chinese brands ok.Give one and I’ll buy it in a blink of an eye.
Copy paste: “Modenas Elegan 250 is sold for RM12,800, that’s RM8,700 less. What is RM8,700 better at this scooter?”
Yamaha never called it’s “Affordable”, there are BMW 350cc scooter costing RM50k but still people buying it. Sorry you just simply can’t afford it.
Syukur x 1001. Yamaha Scooter still priced the same, without Naik-Harga. Price tag just 21K
Dah mahal lagi mau naik? Cekik darah nanti tu
Still overpriced than Xmax300cc at Indonesia… about rm16K++

Without ABS and TCS people would rather spend RM12k on PCX 150 instead of the Taiwan brands you mentioned.
We also have to keep in mind that this scooter is designed by hardworking Japanese. Their salaries are very high.
