Yamaha Fascino

<p>Alex Rins has finally confirmed what many in the paddock were already sensing. The Spaniard will leave Yamaha Factory Racing at the end of the 2026 MotoGP season. With rumours of Ai Ogura set to step in alongside Jorge Martin from 2027, Yamaha is clearly resetting its line-up for the next phase of MotoGP, especially with the 850cc era around the corner. The move underlines a shift in focus as Yamaha looks to rebuild its competitiveness for the future.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/motogp-spanish-gp-heres-when-where-and-how-to-watch-2026-jerez-race-in-india-123421/">MotoGP Spanish GP: Here's When, Where and How to Watch 2026 Jerez Race in India</a></p><p>On paper, Rins’s 2026 season looks quiet. Just three points from three rounds, compared to six for Fabio Quartararo. But anyone following the races knows the numbers do not tell the full story. Yamaha’s switch to a V4 engine has been anything but smooth. The bike still looks like a prototype in progress rather than a finished race machine, and it continues to evolve.</p><p>There are flashes of potential, but not enough consistency. Rins has been stuck trying to extract something from a package that is still finding its identity. The balance, rear grip, and overall performance window remain inconsistent. It has left both riders searching for answers, while rivals continue to move forward with more settled and competitive machinery across different circuits this season.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/04/MotoGP-Yamaha-Alex-Rins-1777014587123.webp" alt="MotoGP Yamaha Alex Rins.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>What really adds a twist here is how the news reached him. Rins admitted he first read about his exit in the media before speaking to team director Massimo Meregalli. The confirmation came later, without details on who would replace him. In a paddock where timing and trust matter, that says a lot about how quickly things can move.</p><p>Yamaha, for its part, has stayed quiet on the official announcement. The hold-up is linked to ongoing discussions with Liberty Media regarding the commercial side of MotoGP’s future. Still, Rins did not dodge the topic when he spoke ahead of the race weekend at Circuito de Jerez, making his position clear.</p><p>It is easy to forget that this is a rider who has delivered at the top level. Before Yamaha, Rins took wins with Suzuki and Honda, building a reputation as someone who can deliver on the right day. He also confirmed that the leg injury from 2023 is no longer holding him back at this stage.</p><p>
      
    <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2023/07/MotoGP-Alex-Rins-1-.jpg" alt="MotoGP Alex Rins 1 " style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Now, the focus shifts to what comes next. Rins has already ruled out World Superbike and is not sounding confident about a move to Pramac Racing. With seats for 2027 disappearing fast, he is in a tight spot. But if there is one thing MotoGP has shown time and again, it is that performances can still change everything.</p>

Updated Yamaha Fascino 125 Fi Hybrid Launched in India; Prices Start at Rs 76,500

Yamaha has launched the Fascino 125 Fi Hybrid with an updated tail section. Prices of the scooter start at Rs 76,500 and reach up to Rs 95,200 (both, ex-showroom). 

<p>Yamaha’s entry into the electric space in India has been a long time coming. And now that it’s here, the brand hasn’t taken the conventional route of going all-in on one headline-grabbing product. Instead, it has entered the field with two different machines – the sporty Aerox E and the more utilitarian EC-06. I recently had the chance to ride both scooters, and while I have already published my thoughts on the Aerox E, it is now time to talk about the EC-06.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-EC-06-EV-Scooters-1774873929171.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E EC-06 EV Scooters.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>For the uninitiated, the EC-06 has been built in collaboration with River and based on the Indie. So, is the EC-06 just a rebadged Indie and will it add any value to Yamaha’s EV portfolio in the country? Is it perhaps the dark horse that might help Yamaha set a strong foot in the EV market?</p><h2>Yamaha EC-06 Review: Design and Styling</h2><p>As mentioned earlier, the EC-06 is based on the Indie, and the two look very similar. That is not to say that there aren’t any differences.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image"><br>
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-EC-06-Front-Three-Quarters-Design-1774888850437.webp" alt="Yamaha EC-06 Front Three Quarters Design.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>For starters, the twin-pod LED headlamp is replaced by a single rectangular unit with rounded corners. The taillight is different, and there are no pannier mounts on the side panels. You will also not find the crash protectors on the apron's sides, nor the innovative footpads seen in the Indie.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>While the Indie comes with a storage box up front, the EC-06 does not. While it reduces the number of storage spaces, you do gain a little room to place your feet.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>Even the underseat storage is not as large as the Indie's, at 24.5 litres. It is large enough to keep a smaller helmet. As a result of these changes, the EC-06 does not feel as utilitarian as the Indie.</p><p>Despite my limited time with the scooter, the seat felt more comfortable than the Indie's. I do like that Yamaha has gone with switches for operating the charging flap and seat lock.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>The Indie requires you to use the key in several places to access these individually. What really stood out, though, was the overall build quality. The EC-06 feels a notch above the River offering and even most startup-driven scooters. Panel gaps are consistent, and the paint quality looks and feels premium.</p><h2>Yamaha EC-06 Review: Performance &amp; Handling</h2><p>On paper, the EC-06 has the same power and torque figures as the Indie but has a lower top speed of 79km/h, compared to Indie’s 90km/h. Out on the road, however, the difference isn’t particularly noticeable, especially in the city.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>You get to pick from three modes, and while the response in Eco mode is rather slow, the pace is much better in the other two. The EC-06 accelerates briskly and should make overtaking jobs in the city a fairly easy affair. Despite being down on numbers compared to the Aerox E, I was surprised to find that the EC-06 delivered better acceleration and felt much more engaging to ride.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>I was also pleasantly surprised by the suspension performance. While it has the same hardware as the Indie, the damping feels better here. It manages to soak up the undulations somewhat better. It is not the most comfortable scooter in the segment, but it does offer a respectable ride quality.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        
      <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>There is a decent amount of confidence and stillness when pushed around twisty sections of the tarmac. Some of the credit for that also goes to the 14-inch tyres, which are fairly wide, resulting in a larger contact patch.</p><h2>Yamaha EC-06 Review: Verdict</h2><p>The EC-06 might not be the flashiest electric scooter in Yamaha’s line-up, but it feels like a well-rounded and thoughtfully executed product. It doesn’t rely on gimmicks or headline features. Instead, it focuses on the basics – decent performance, good ride quality, and solid build. It does not just feel like a good scooter in the Yamaha lineup; it feels like a solid offering in the EV space, period.</p><p>
      <br></p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

      </div>
    
      </div>
    <p><br></p><p>Yes, the Rs 1.69 lakh price tag does feel a bit steep at first glance, especially when you consider what some rivals offer on paper. But spend some time with it, and you begin to see where that money is going – refinement, fit and finish, and a sense of polish that’s often missing in this segment. In a space filled with ambitious newcomers, the EC-06 takes a more measured approach. It may not shout for attention, but it quietly makes a strong case for itself. And in the long run, that might just work in its favour.</p><p>

Yamaha EC-06 First Ride Review: Hitting the Bullseye

Is the EC-06 the smarter Yamaha EV to buy over the Aerox E? We ride the more practical sibling to find out if it makes a stronger real-world case.

<p>Scooters are usually considered to be practical tools and often have a boring image. However, every now and then, an offering comes along that breaks free from conventional roles and does things differently. For Yamaha, that scooter was the Aerox 155. It looked different, rode differently, and did not give a hoot about practicality. And yet, it was a hit amongst the younger crowds. Yamaha is now gearing up to launch the electric version of the scooter, the Aerox E. So, does the Japanese automaker have another ace up its sleeve?</p><h2>Yamaha Aerox E: Ergonomics and Practicality</h2><p>The design and physical footprint of the Aerox E are very similar to those of the internal combustion engine-powered counterpart. I did find the ergonomics somewhat odd. You sit rather high up relative to the handlebars, resulting in a riding position that takes some time to get used to. The seat cushion is angled and keeps pushing the rider into the handlebars.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-On-Off-Knob-1774857061556.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E On Off Knob.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>While it is great to see that you get keyless operation and that most of the controls are in one place, I did not like the feel of the buttons for opening the charging lid and the seat. They feel rather rubbery and can be harder to operate with gloves on. The underseat storage space is rather less, due to the presence of the removable batteries (more on that later).</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-Underseat-Storage-1774857164794.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E Underseat Storage.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>You can still keep a rather small bag here or some papers. There is a storage compartment on the left side of the apron that also has a charger. While in the ICE-powered Aerox, one would open the flap to fill with petrol, in the electric version, it hides the charging port and a cavity to hold the charger.&nbsp; All in all, the Aerox E is not a practical or sensible offering, like its ICE-powered counterpart, but it could have had somewhat better ergonomics.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-Instrument-Cluster-1774857051939.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E Instrument Cluster.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>You get a 5-inch colour TFT instrument cluster that is functional, but I do feel that it pales in comparison to the fancy touchscreens seen on competitor models.</p><h2>Yamaha Aerox E: Performance and Handling</h2><p>On paper, the Aerox E makes more power and torque than the EC-06, Yamaha's other EV offering, which has a higher top speed of 95.5km/h (with Boost) and even a sporty pedigree. So, I was expecting this scooter to impress mightily with its performance. Unfortunately, that wasn't exactly the case.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-EC-06-Electric-Scooters-1774857013231.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E EC-06 Electric Scooters.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>When you twist the accelerator, the scooter thinks for a little while before delivering power. This is rather reminiscent of EVs of days gone by and not a trait I expected to see in this package. Once you do get rolling, however, there is decent grunt to keep you on the move. But I was really surprised to find the Aerox E's acceleration less impressive than the more utilitarian EC-06's. There are three riding modes, and I was mostly testing the Aerox E in the most powerful one. Using the Boost Mode helps things along, but  this is a momentary surge in power and needs time to recharge once used.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-Tracking-Shot-1774857138693.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E Tracking Shot.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      The ride quality is decent compared to the regular Aerox, but the suspension still tends to bottom out on bumps and potholes; this is especially true of the front forks. At slower speeds, the absorption levels are a little better. Even though the braking setup consists of disc brakes on both wheels and single-channel ABS, the performance feels a little lacking. The bite from the setup is not nearly as good as one would expect. Yamaha has also thrown in traction control, which is a nice safety net to have, but not really necessary. You can switch it off if you so wish.</div>
    <div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-Swappable-Battery-Packs-1774857111549.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E Swappable Battery Packs.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>With the Aerox E, Yamaha is taking the swappable battery route. There are two 1.5kWh units that can be charged outside the scooter or even when they are plugged in (thankfully!) However, each battery pack is rather heavy, and you will have to put your back into lifting them. Once again, it feels like something you would have encountered in the lead-acid battery era of EVs.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">
        <img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/03/Yamaha-Aerox-E-Batteries-1774857007473.webp" alt="Yamaha Aerox E Batteries.png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;">
      </div>
    <p>The 117km IDC range figure is not confidence-inspiring either. I did not have enough time to do a range test, but I can safely bet that in the real world, that figure will be closer to 70-75km. So, if you were planning on taking the Aerox E for your long office commutes, you might have to charge on almost daily.</p><h2>Yamaha Aerox E: Verdict</h2><p>Perhaps my expectations were a little too high for the Aerox E, given the reputation of its petrol-powered namesake, leaving me feeling a little underwhelmed by what was ultimately presented. The scooter undoubtedly looks good and has a decent amount of rider aids.</p><div style="width: 100%; height: auto;" class="post-image">

    <p>However, the performance felt lacking, and the range won't cut it in 2026. It does not help that competitors are offering better instrument clusters. Prices are not out yet, but they will be rather high, making the Aerox E feel like too little, too late.</p><p>[tabs]</p>

Yamaha Aerox E First Ride Review: The Right EVolution?

Can the Yamaha Aerox E manage to impress the performance-hungry crowds in the same way that the petrol-powered iteration did?

<p>Yamaha has revealed the 2026 Tricity 300 scooter with a new airbag feature. This is not a regular update, as it brings a safety system usually seen in cars. The integrated rider airbag, developed with Autoliv, is placed in the front apron and is designed to deploy during frontal impacts. It makes the Tricity 300 the first production scooter in the world to get this feature. For daily riders in busy city traffic, this adds an extra layer of protection. The design has been updated to match the new hardware, with a sharper and more compact front fairing. The changes also help accommodate the airbag unit while improving aerodynamics.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/yamaha-xsr155-prices-hiked-new-metallic-black-colour-scheme-launched-123013/">Yamaha XSR155 Prices Hiked; New Metallic Black Colour Scheme Launched</a></p><p>It gets vertically stacked triple LED position lights and a split LED tail lamp, giving it a more modern look. <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/yamaha/">Yamaha</a> has also revised the side panels and added new graphics.

Yamaha EC-06 Electric Scooter Launched in India at Rs 1.68 Lakh

<p>Jorge Martin’s name is back in the middle of the MotoGP rider market, with reports linking him to a Yamaha move for the 2027 season. According the source, the talk in the paddock is that the deal could run for two years, taking effect once his Aprilia contract ends in 2026. Nothing has been signed yet, but the timing makes sense. Yamaha is expected to have room in its factory set-up, and teams are already planning well ahead with big regulation changes coming in 2027. After everything Martin has dealt with over the past two seasons, this reported move feels like a reset point rather than just another transfer story.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/motogp-fabio-quartararo-reportedly-set-for-honda-switch-in-surprise-move-122801/">MotoGP: Fabio Quartararo Reportedly Set for Honda Switch in Surprise Move</a></p><p>His time with Aprilia has never really settled. Martin arrived in 2025 after Ducati chose a different factory direction, but things quickly became difficult. Injuries hit early and kept returning, including surgeries to his left wrist and right collarbone.

MotoGP: Jorge Martin Reportedly Set for Yamaha Move in 2027

Jorge Martin is reportedly linked with a Yamaha move for 2027 as injuries, Aprilia tensions and Fabio Quartararo’s expected Honda switch shape the MotoGP rider market.

<p>The 2027 MotoGP rider market may have its first major storyline already taking shape, with Fabio Quartararo reportedly switching to Honda from Yamaha. With new regulations on the horizon, teams are quietly making long-term moves, and Quartararo’s name has now moved to the centre of that conversation. The French rider has spent his entire premier-class career with Yamaha, but recent seasons have raised questions about where his future truly lies. As Honda prepares for a full reset ahead of the next technical era, the possibility of pairing a World Champion with a new project is starting to make sense. While nothing is confirmed, the timing and direction of the talks have caught attention across the paddock.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/motogp-aprilias-jorge-martin-to-sit-out-first-sepang-test-122792/">MotoGP: Aprilia’s Jorge Martin to Sit Out First Sepang Test</a></p><p>The reported move is expected to add more noise to the rider market, even with 2027 still some distance away. With most contracts set to run until the end of 2026, teams will begin planning early, knowing that one decision can influence many others. Honda is likely to find itself at the centre of those discussions. </p><p>The current Honda factory line-up of Joan Mir and Luca Marini will come under quiet pressure as long-term plans start taking shape. Mir is expected to build on his breakthrough podium from 2025, while Marini will aim to continue his role as a consistent points scorer. As 2027 approaches, it is unlikely that every seat will remain secure.</p><p>Honda’s interest appears closely tied to the 2027 regulation overhaul. With new engine rules arriving, the manufacturer is expected to rebuild its MotoGP programme almost from scratch. Securing a rider like Quartararo early would allow Honda to shape development around proven feedback and race craft.</p><p>The reported switch has already added heat to early rider market chatter. With many contracts running until the end of 2026, teams are quietly planning ahead. One major move could easily trigger others as the grid starts forming for the new era.</p><p>For now, Honda’s 2027 line-up remains open, while Yamaha faces an uncertain period despite work continuing on its V4 engine. Until anything becomes official, Quartararo’s future will remain one of the biggest talking points heading towards MotoGP’s next reset.</p><p><a href="https://www.motorsport.com/motogp/news/exclusive-honda-signs-fabio-quartararo-for-2027-motogp-season/10793660/">Source</a></p>

MotoGP: Fabio Quartararo Reportedly Set for Honda Switch in Surprise Move

Fabio Quartararo is reportedly set to leave Yamaha for a Honda move in 2027, with rider market pressure building as MotoGP teams plan for the new era.

<p>Yamaha has revealed its 2026 MotoGP livery, giving the first proper look at the new V4-powered M1. The bike shown was the full factory version that will line up on the grid throughout the season. This launch matters because it confirms Yamaha’s biggest technical change in years, moving away from the inline-four engine heritage that defined the M1 for a long time. The switch to a V4 layout places Yamaha on a new path as the team looks to rebuild performance before the next regulation cycle. With testing soon already underway, the launch event marked a new beginning for Yamaha’s 2026 campaign.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/motogp-ducati-reveals-2026-desmosedici-gp26-in-red-and-white-livery-122729/">MotoGP: Ducati Reveals 2026 Desmosedici GP26 in Red and White Livery</a></p><p>The 2026 M1 continues with Yamaha’s familiar blue base, now mixed with black and white sections across the fairing, nose and tail. The layout follows the current factory identity and will remain the same for every round of the championship. While the colours stay recognisable, the arrangement gives the bike a cleaner race look under lights and in pit lane.</p><p>

Both riders stay with the factory team for 2026 and will play a key role in shaping the V4 project. Their focus now turns to structured testing as Yamaha gathers track data before the opening round of the season.</p><p>

Development started last season, with early prototypes running during private test sessions and in few MotoGP races by Augusto Fernández. The 2026 M1 is the first version built to handle full race distances, consistent performance and weekend workloads.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2026/01/2026-MotoGP-Yamaha-V4-Livery-(3)-1768997369712.webp" alt="2026 MotoGP Yamaha V4 Livery (3).png" style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>Yamaha’s new engine approach brings it closer to the direction used by most teams in the premier class. Development will continue during the season as engineers study data, reliability behaviour and rider feedback. With 2026 set to be the final year of the current 1000cc rules, the new M1 V4 also plays an important role in preparing Yamaha for the major regulation change coming in 2027.</p>
