The Yamaha Fascino 125 FI Hybrid, with its neo-retro design language, stands out from other scooters in the 125cc class. It is a handsome scooter. Among India's lightest scooters is the Yamaha Fascino.
Design
The Fascino 125 FI has curved panels that appear larger, and the tail part is notably longer. Additionally, Yamaha moved the handlebar 20 millimetres higher and closer to the rider by 18 millimetres. This ought to guarantee ergonomic comfort. The curved exhaust heat shield neatly hides the stubby exhaust shape, complementing the scooter's overall design.
90-section front and 110-section rear tubeless tyres, respectively, are mounted on the 12-inch front and 10-inch rear alloy wheels. It's interesting to note that at 99 kg kerb, the scooter is the lightest 125cc scooter available for purchase in India.

Its torque output increased from 9.7 Nm to 10.3 Nm as a result. But its 8.2 PS of power is still the same as it was. It still operates with its start-stop and silent start mechanisms.
