A new model from Yamaha is drawing attention for combining fuel economy, affordable price, and sports design in a 124 cc scooter that promises to revolutionize urban mobility.
Capable of traveling up to 200 kilometers on just 4 liters of gasoline, the JOG 125 is equipped with features that make it a practical alternative for everyday city use without sacrificing performance and functionality.
The model offers more than 50 km per liter of fuel autonomy, according to WMTC cycle tests, and weighs only 95 kg, making it easier to handle in congested traffic.

Ducati brings to Brazil the Superleggera V4 Centenario: 228 hp that become 247 with a track kit, carbon fiber and carbon-ceramic brakes, estimated price between R$ 1.5 and 2 million, deliveries only in 2027.
Highlights include the 21.3-liter trunk, brakes with a UBS (Unified Brake System), and an accessible seat with a height of just 735 mm.
Focusing on efficiency, the scooter is designed to cater to an urban audience looking for economy without compromising style.
Its 124 cc single-cylinder engine delivers 8.3 horsepower and a torque of 1.00 kgfm, ensuring quick response and comfortable handling at moderate speeds.
Spacious Trunk and Lightweight Structure
The lightweight structure, combined with a lowered center of gravity, provides better control and makes parking in tight spaces easier.
The storage compartment under the seat, with 21.3 liters of capacity, safely accommodates a helmet and personal items.
Additionally, there is a front hook for bags and a dedicated space on the panel for bottles up to 600 ml.
For those needing connectivity in daily life, the manufacturer offers a USB charger as an optional accessory, which can be installed in the front compartment.
Blue Core Engine Optimizes Economy
The engine of the JOG 125 uses Blue Core technology, developed to optimize combustion and reduce friction losses, increasing energy efficiency.
The V-Belt automatic transmission allows for smooth driving without the need for manual shifts, ideal for those facing heavy city traffic.
At a constant speed of 60 km/h, the consumption can reach 57.7 km/l, reinforcing the economic nature of the model.
The 4-liter tank guarantees a range exceeding 200 kilometers, making the JOG 125 one of the most efficient scooters in its class.
Braking System and Urban Stability
Even with a focus on low cost, Yamaha equipped the scooter with effective safety solutions.
The drum brakes on the front and rear wheels are assisted by the UBS system, which automatically distributes braking when the rear brake is applied, increasing stability during abrupt decelerations.
The front suspension is telescopic, while the rear uses a single shock, both adjusted to soften impacts on urban streets.
The 10-inch wheels, fitted with 90/90 tires, offer a balance between traction and comfort.
Design Inspired by Sports Models
Inspired by Yamaha’s sports lineup, such as the YZF-R1, the JOG 125 features rectangular headlights and stylized rear lights, maintaining modern and discreet lines.
The design harmonizes smooth lines with functional details, appealing to both youthful and professional uses.
With a length of 1,740 mm, width of 675 mm, and height of 1,090 mm, the scooter stands out for its ease of handling.
The wheelbase of 1,205 mm ensures stability in corners and quick maneuvers, while the lowered seat enhances accessibility for riders of various heights.
Attractive Price and Color Options
With an initial price equivalent to approximately R$ 8,600 in direct conversion, the JOG 125 positions itself as one of the most affordable scooters in the 125 cc category in the Asian market.
The difference compared to the previous generation is about R$ 300, influenced by currency fluctuations and adjustments in materials.
Yamaha offers the model in four distinct colors: light blue, metallic red, white, and black.
The variety of shades enhances its aesthetic appeal, which is an important factor for those looking to combine style with functionality in urban use.
Jog Line and Expansion in the Scooter Sector
Created in 1983, the Jog line began with a 50 cc model and a two-stroke engine.
Since then, it has evolved to incorporate new technologies, such as four-stroke engines and larger storage spaces.
The current version, with 124 cc, marks a new phase in the series, focusing on sustainable urban mobility and cost-effectiveness.
The launch of the JOG 125 is part of Yamaha’s strategy to expand its presence in the segment of lightweight and efficient scooters.
Other recent models, such as the Vino 2024 (retro style with a 50 cc engine) and the electric bicycle Grand Pather, reinforce the brand’s positioning regarding clean and affordable mobility.
Expectations for the Brazilian Market
Although there is still no official confirmation about the arrival of the JOG 125 in Brazil, the model generates expectations among consumers looking for economical alternatives to the scooters currently available.
In the national market, Yamaha sells options such as the Neo 125 and the Fluo, with prices starting at R$ 12,000, above the estimated value of the JOG.
To be sold in the country, the JOG 125 would need to undergo adaptations to Brazilian emissions and safety standards.
The demand for accessible and economical models is growing, driven by a 15% increase in scooter sales between 2023 and 2024, according to data from Fenabrave (National Federation of Motor Vehicle Distribution).
Functional Solution for Urban Commuting
Targeted at short and medium trips, the JOG 125 prioritizes functionality.
Its analog dashboard keeps costs low and facilitates the reading of basic information.
The compact chassis, positioned between the size of the old Jog 50 and the Axis Z, makes it easier to use in dense urban environments.
The center and side stands enhance practicality when parking, and Yamaha’s focus was to keep the model simple, durable, and easy to maintain — characteristics valued by users who rely on the scooter as their primary means of transport.
Do you think a scooter priced at R$ 8,600, with consumption over 50 km per liter and a sporty design, would have a place on the streets of Brazil?
