All
Yamaha scooters are powered by a 113cc single-cylinder engine that produces 7.1
PS of power at 7,500 rpm and 8.1 Nm of peak torque at 5,000 rpm, mated to a
V-Belt Automatic transmission. Interestingly, the prices of the UBS models are
higher by only up to INR 600 as compared to the non-UBS models.
