This is a data comparison, not a test-ride review. We have not ridden these scooters, so we say nothing about handling, comfort or sound.

Engine and size

Yamaha Aerox 155 Aprilia SR 160 Aprilia SR 175 HPE TVS NTORQ 150
Engine 155 cc 160 cc 174.7 cc 149.7 cc
Power 11.0 kW 8.29 kW 9.76 kW 9.7 kW

The Aerox lists about 13% more power than the SR 175 (11.0 ÷ 9.76 = 1.13) and about 33% more than the SR 160 (11.0 ÷ 8.29 = 1.33), though its torque is close to theirs. The Aprilia seats are 10 mm lower (790 − 780), and their tanks hold 0.5 litre more than the Aerox (6 − 5.5). Aprilia does not publish a kerb weight on these pages, so we cannot compare weight. We found no claimed mileage for any of the four, so we do not quote one; for published figures see best mileage scooters in Nepal.

Paying for it

Nepal Rastra Bank limits private vehicle loans to 60% of the vehicle value, and we found no separate limit for scooters. On the Aerox at Rs 5,04,900 that is up to Rs 3,02,940 (5,04,900 × 0.6), leaving Rs 2,01,960 to pay yourself. On the SR 175 at Rs 4,56,500 it is up to Rs 2,73,900, leaving Rs 1,82,600. Use the EMI calculator and read our bike and scooter loan guide.
