Yamaha Aerox 2026
At the Indonesia International Motor Show 2026, Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing pulled the covers off the refreshed Yamaha Aerox Alpha. The sporty scooter arrives with more aggressive styling, additional variants, and improved technology, clearly designed to appeal to younger riders looking for a stylish and performance-oriented urban machine.
Six Variants with Distinct Identities
The 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha comes in six versions: Standard, Cybercity, Cybercity ABS, Turbo, Turbo Ultimate, and Turbo 70th Livery.
Different colors and graphics are available, including Black, Red, Blue, Matte Purple Black, White Pearl Blue, and 70th Livery. These options give riders more choices while keeping the sporty Aerox design.
Proven Chassis and Urban-Friendly Dimensions
Underneath its sporty bodywork, the Yamaha Aerox Alpha retains its proven underbone chassis setup. Suspension duties are handled by 30 mm telescopic front forks and dual rear shock absorbers, giving the scooter a balance between sporty handling and daily comfort.
The Aerox Alpha measures 1,980 mm long, 710 mm wide, and 1,170 mm tall, with a 1,350 mm wheelbase. A 145 mm ground clearance and manageable 790 mm seat height make it well suited for city riding and everyday practicality.
The 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha is equipped with 14-inch wheels wrapped in tubeless tires measuring 110/80 at the front and 140/70 at the rear. Disc brakes are fitted at both ends, while ABS is available on selected variants. With this configuration, the Aerox Alpha competes directly with sporty scooters such as the Honda Vario and Honda Air Blade.
Upgraded 155 cc Engine with YECVT
The biggest change for the 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha comes under the bodywork, where Yamaha introduces its latest 155 cc VVA Blue Core engine combined with the new Yamaha Electric CVT (YECVT) system.
Producing 11.3 kW at 8,000 rpm and 14.2 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm, the updated setup promises punchier mid-range performance and quicker throttle response — key traits for sporty city riding.
Yamaha also adds a 3-level Y-Shift function that lets riders adjust acceleration and engine-braking feel depending on riding conditions. Meanwhile, dedicated S-Mode and T-Mode settings help tailor the scooter for either sharper urban performance or smoother long-distance cruising.
Advanced Technology and Connectivity
One of the key highlights of the 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha is its fully digital TFT instrument display. The panel supports Y-Connect smartphone integration, providing access to riding information, navigation assistance, music controls, and call and message notifications.
Through CCU 2.0 connectivity, riders can also review trip history, locate nearby fuel stations, and monitor the scooter’s location.
Additional convenience features include a USB charging port, smart key system, automatic start/stop function, and a spacious 24.5-litre storage compartment, all designed to improve everyday usability.
Turbo Variants: Added Performance and Style
The range-topping Turbo and Turbo Ultimate versions of the 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha bring an extra layer of sportiness and refinement. They feature a Performance Damper for better high-speed stability, more aggressive exhaust tips, and a redesigned windscreen that sharpens both aerodynamic performance and overall visual presence.
Pricing and Market Position
In the Indonesian market, the 2026 Yamaha Aerox Alpha carries prices ranging from 29.9 million to 41.73 million Rupiah, depending on the version chosen.
By unveiling the scooter at the Indonesia International Motor Show 2026, Yamaha is clearly signaling its intention to further expand its influence in Southeast Asia’s fiercely competitive sporty scooter segment.
