Despite bikes holding the larger share, Yamaha’s scooter range — especially the RayZR — continues to show strong momentum.
Yamaha has started 2026 on a strong note, with the RayZR leading the charge. The scooter’s impressive 40% growth highlights rising demand in the 125cc scooter segment, even as motorcycles continue to contribute the majority of the brand’s overall volumes.
