Buyer questions
What the differences mean
Current V3 prices and variants
Aerox V3 is currently ₱125,900–₱163,900; NMAX V3 is ₱155,900–₱175,900. These are dated observed records, not a promise of dealer inventory or final transaction price.
Engine comparison
Aerox V3 lists 155 cc, 15.4 hp and 14.2 Nm; NMAX V3 lists 155 cc, 15.1 hp and 14.2 Nm. Output figures are compared on paper only; gearing and test methods are not normalized here.
Which is lighter?
Curb weight: Aerox V3 is 7 kg lower than NMAX V3. Lower published weight can be relevant at parking and low speeds, but does not by itself prove easier handling.
Seat height and dimensions
Seat height: NMAX V3 is 20 mm lower than Aerox V3. Seat width, suspension sag, rider proportions and footwear also affect actual ground reach.
Fuel capacity and economy
Aerox V3 lists a 5.5 L tank; NMAX V3 lists 7.1 L. MotoIndex does not yet have directly comparable published fuel-economy figures for both records.
ABS and braking differences
Aerox V3: Variant-dependent; SP listings include ABS and traction control. NMAX V3: Dual-channel ABS. Variant-specific equipment can differ, so check the exact variant and the linked model sources before buying.
Technology and features
Aerox V3: Base-price Aerox configuration; CVT automatic; Current 155cc Aerox generation; Aerox SP; YECVT model. NMAX V3: Base-price NMAX configuration; Current 155cc NMAX generation; NMAX Tech Max; YECVT with Sport/Touring modes; Premium NMAX technology package.
Storage
MotoIndex does not yet list a directly comparable storage-capacity figure for both motorcycles. The comparison therefore does not invent a liters figure; check the individual model pages and linked manufacturer information.
Best fit for commuting
The current MotoIndex records compare Aerox V3 and NMAX V3 using dated prices and published specifications. Where the requested field is not normalized for both motorcycles, the page says so rather than filling the gap with an unsupported claim.
Best fit for longer trips
NMAX V3 has the larger published fuel tank. Tank size, published economy and ground clearance can help trip planning, but MotoIndex does not infer long-distance comfort from specifications alone.
No generic score
Which one should you choose?
Choose Aerox V3 if
- ₱30,000 lower observed starting price
- 0.3 hp more published power
- 7 kg lower curb weight
- 0.9 hp/100 kg higher derived power-to-weight figure
Choose NMAX V3 if
- 20 mm lower published seat
- 1.6 L larger fuel tank
These are factual advantages from the current model records, not an overall score or universal winner.
