Pros and Cons of Yamaha Grande 2021
2.1. Advantages
The Yamaha Grande 2021 boasts a stunning front design with a five-sided diamond shape. The central LED light strip on the mask enhances visibility during night rides. The turn signal cluster utilizes halogen bulbs. Both sides of the mask feature a chrome strip running from top to bottom, forming the iconic Y shape for Yamaha.
The instrument panel is divided into two distinct sections, with the larger analog display showing speed. Below is a vibrant TFT screen instead of a monochrome LCD. The dashboard still provides all the essential metrics, similar to many scooters in the same segment.
The fuel tank lid has been moved down to the left fairing instead of being integrated under the seat like many other scooters. This design allows users to easily refuel without getting off the bike and opening a compartment, which is especially useful in rainy weather.
The standout feature of the Yamaha Grande 2021 is its hybrid engine. The hybrid engine runs on both petrol and electricity. The 125cc petrol engine produces 8.2 horsepower. The electric motor assists users in initial acceleration for the first 3 seconds, providing better acceleration and reducing engine strain. This also contributes to fuel efficiency.
As per the manufacturer's claims, the Yamaha Grande 2021 hybrid version is the most fuel-efficient scooter in Vietnam, with a fuel consumption rate of 1.7l/100km. However, real-world experience suggests the actual consumption is around 1.8l/100km. Compared to the general standard of scooters in Vietnam, the Yamaha Grande 2021 remains a remarkably fuel-efficient model.
2.2. Drawbacks
The seat height of the Yamaha Grande 2021 is relatively high compared to the average height of Vietnamese people. With a seat height of 790mm, it can pose challenges for petite riders. Those with a height around 1m55 and below may have to tiptoe when supporting the bike. Therefore, this model is more suitable for women with a height of 1m6 and above.
Yamaha Grande 2021 Prices
Grande Blue Core Hybrid standard edition: 45,500,000 VND
Grande Blue Core Hybrid special edition: 49,500,000 VND
Grande Blue Core Hybrid limited edition: 50,000,000 VND
However, this is just the manufacturer's suggested price. The actual selling price at dealerships may vary, but the difference is not significant.
Therefore, the Yamaha Grande 2021 is the only model equipped with ABS brakes. Although the selling price is slightly higher, it is a worthy investment for users to experience enhanced safety.
