Two of Yamaha’s sportiest 155cc scooters compared in detailed visuals
Just a month ago, Yamaha launched the Aerox 155 in India, its sportiest scooter for the country yet. And then, a few days ago, the Japanese bike maker also launched the Force 2.0 in Taiwan. While the sporty siblings share their mechanicals, they are distinct in their own right. Here’s how.
Yamaha has equipped both scooters with a split-headlight setup. But while the Force 2.0 uses halogen units, the Aerox 155 gets LED illumination. Overall, the latter looks much sleeker.

The Force 2.0 gets a flat footboard and is a maxi-style scooter. On the other hand, the Aerox 155 gets a proper step-through maxi design. While it may look sporty, the practicality does take a hit.
Yamaha has provided the Force 2.0 with a 155cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder motor with VVA and a silent starter. The Aerox 155 uses the same engine and claims to dish out 15PS and 13.9Nm. However, unlike the latter, the Force 2.0 gets traction control as well.
Both get LCD consoles but the Aerox 155 benefits from Bluetooth-enabled smartphone connectivity.
The Force 2.0 gets a 6.1-litre underseat fuel tank, whereas the Aerox 155 has a 5.5-litre unit at the front.
Underseat storage on the Force 2.0 and Aerox 155 is 23.2 litres and 26.5 litres, respectively.
Both scooters are suspended on a telescopic front fork and twin rear springs. However, Yamaha India offers the Aerox 155 with optional gas-charged rear springs for Rs 17,024.
Braking hardware on the Force 2.0 consists of a 267mm front and a 230mm rear disc with dual-channel ABS. Meanwhile, the Aerox 155 has a 230mm front disc and a 130mm rear drum with single-channel ABS.
At 1340mm, the Force 2.0’s wheelbase is 10mm shorter than the Aerox.
The Aerox 155 gets a 790mm seat height while that of its sibling is 815mm.
In Thailand, the Yamaha Force 2.0 retails at an equivalent of Rs 2.66 lakh. On the other hand, the Aerox 155 costs Rs 1.29 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) in India.
To sum up, the Aerox 155 is not only the more affordable of the two but also has more features on offer.
Yamaha Aerox 155 User Reviews
- Yamaha Aerox 155The scooter is amazing. Great performance and good mileage as well was getting around 35 kmpl in city. Great handling and high-speed stability with good breaks. Everything is good but the scooter is not suitable for tall riders. The boot could fit an entire full-face helmet inside as well along with space to keep a jacket as well.Read More4

- Good scooty with lots of flaws to be correctedBecause of its performance. It looks good. It has a good pickup and the balance is also very good. The agility is also decent. And the engine is super refined. And it stands out in its competition easily. I have a mixed experience with this bike. The battery got dead in just 6000 km. I had to replace the battery. The issue with the rear rim was the worst. The socket in which the rim fits it got loose and when i went to the service centre, they didn't come up with the solution. The front suspension is so hard that you can't even take small pots on the road. And the fit and finish can be much better. The rear break is week. If the road condition is very good and millage is not an issue and someone who wants a scooter which can deliver power and has a good road presence can consider it. But personally I would not purchase again this scooter.Read More6 7
- Yamaha Aerox dashing review.I choose this because of the muscular looks and the bulkiness. I love the muscular looks specially this Yamaha Aerox. And the feel when you ride this giant scooter on road everyone see this like how a scooter looks like this muscular. Ride is comfortable and smooth braking system. And specially the disc is so much good that you just put your fingers on the brake and it stop immediately. And the comfortness of the back rider is also good. Yes who need a muscular body type scooty obviously go for it blind foldy. You get a smooth experience when your ride it on road. And the boot space is also huge you can store many things including helmet also.Read More2 1
