India’s first mild-hybrid scooter is available at a tempting price
Few days after launching the FZ 25 Monster Energy MotoGP Edition, Yamaha India has announced the pricing of the new Fascino 125 FI Hybrid, the first scooter in India to come with hybrid tech. The scooter was first showcased during the launch of the Yamaha FZ-X.
The Yamaha Fascino 125 FI Hybrid has been priced at Rs 70,000 for the drum brake variant while the disc brake variant will set you back by Rs 76,530. Interestingly, the outgoing model was priced at Rs 72,030 (drum) and Rs 75,530 (DLX disc). Considering the bunch of changes that come with this model, the Japanese brand has priced this scooter quite aggressively.

The Fascino 125 FI Hybrid is powered by the same fuel-injected 125cc motor, but it now comes with a smart motor generator that functions as electric motor assist when you accelerate from a stop. It now produces 8.2PS (same as before), but the torque has gone up by 0.6Nm to 10.3Nm. To know more about how the mild-hybrid system functions, read this story.
Yamaha has also equipped the scooter with a bunch of new features, including LED illumination, a new digital console and smartphone connectivity via Yamaha Motorcycle Connect X App, USB charging, and side-stand engine cutoff. However, some of these features are restricted to the disc variant.
The Yamaha Fascino 125 Hybrid goes up against the likes of the Suzuki Access 125 and Honda Activa 125. However, given the plethora of features, the unique mild-hybrid engine, and competitive pricing, the Yamaha is certainly a tempting proposition. The scooter will hit showrooms at the end of this month.
Yamaha Fascino 125 Fi Hybrid (2019-2025) User Reviews
- one of the most easiest scooters overallIt is one of the smoothest and most nimble handling scooters available in the market with a strong competition it offers a very good accessibility for new riders as well as the friendly nature makes it easy to ride in everyday traffic. the positive thing of this scooter is the handling, it is very easy to handle in heavy traffic, even with travelling a small amount of household goods, also the smoothness of the vehicle, negative points will be it has stiff suspension and under seat fuel filling system which cannot be accessible to the most. yes the bike can be recommended to a new rider or who wants overall comfort, mileage and easy going nature if the scooter, also one must consider the pricing, though it falls in a premium segment the features are comparatively less, but has very strong points to balance out.Read More
- Good driving with pillion .Good driving with pillion. Nice pickup power, must maintain periodically without fail or it will issue its mileage and performance. Good option for daily based and long rides without much shivering of handels in the road. Boot space is limited in the front area in of the disadvantages, otherwise it’s a good to go option.Read More2 1

- Review after 4 years of ridingFor Looks and spacious, because of the hybrid system , bluetooth connectivity, other scooter have classy but i selected for over all features, other scooters does not offers many features at that time. Engine get noisy within 300 km if we have habbit of sudden throttling and habit of rash driving so bike must be handled slow and gradual increase in throttle then we wont get any noise,it will settle after several km of slow and steady throttling, speedometer wire get become faulty 6 months once , scooter will accelerate itself after 6 month because of some fault in accelerator wire at fist it will 10 km/h then if we did not fix it with mechanic it will gradually increase and go upto 40 km/h when we start the bike its act a cruise control but we need do unwanted breaking and loss in mileage, breaks must be periodically tightened other it will become loose, I do not have experience with other bike hence this is my first bike I do not have any experience with other scooters so I do not have knowledge and experience to comment about this , bike have good pickup once we reached a speed of 40 to 60 km per hour then we can over take anything without any lag , but at first 40 km we will feel rubber band effect .Read More1 6
- it can be a choice but not so good choice 😁the speed meter wire is not up to the mark.. every pot hole feels like you got into it and the front wheel touches the protector so it makes noise. the real world mileage for an average driver would come down to 50kmpl. Not suitable for heavy weight drivers. Take it only if you like the design. should consider other options before you take it.Read More3 1
