Yamaha has unveiled its new Xenter E electric scooter, which is expected to go on sale in Europe by spring 2027. The 125cc-equivalent electric scooter will be produced in Vietnam.

Yamaha Xenter E: Design and Hardware
The Yamaha Xenter E gets a rectangular headlamp and a slim, upright front apron. Its conventional flat floorboard improves everyday practicality, while the stepped seat adds to its premium appearance. The scooter also features an aluminium swingarm.
It rides on large 16-inch wheels, with a 100-section front tyre and a 120-section rear tyre. Suspension duties are handled by telescopic front forks and a rear swingarm with shock absorbers. Braking comes from 245mm disc brakes at both ends. These are supported by ABS for improved braking control.

The Xenter E uses a three-phase excitation electric motor. It produces 7.5 kW of peak power and 33.3 Nm of maximum torque. The motor draws power from a fixed 70.2 Ah battery pack. Yamaha claims a riding range of up to 108 km on a full charge. The scooter also gets regenerative braking, which helps recover energy during deceleration.
