Two Yamaha models named Nickel and Tricity are on display, but no information is available in terms of sale.

In two days of December 31, 2022 – January 1, 2023, Yamaha Vietnam held the Yamaha Expo Exhibition in Da Nang city. The Japanese automaker brings not only products for sale, but also unique models. Among which is the 3-wheel motorcycle duo Yamaha Nickel (blue) and Tricity.

Yamaha Nickel was introduced by the company in 2017. The scooter is designed using LMW technology (tilting the bike when cornering with multi-wheel vehicles), helping to keep the experience and driving feeling for multi-wheel vehicles. At the same time, it increases sturdiness when cornering.

Notably in this technology is the front suspension with a total of 4 upside-down shock absorbers, divided into two pairs for the two front wheels. This design not only helps it operate stably but also has an aesthetic effect, increasing the sporty appearance. Front/rear rim sizes are 15/17 inches, respectively, while tires are 120/70 and 190/55.

The size of the Yamaha Nickel reaches 2,150 x 885 x 1,250 mm; the seat height reaches 820 mm. In terms of weight, this model weighs about 263 kg.

The vehicle uses an electronic display that displays speed and parameters. The two sides of the steering wheel integrate buttons such as ignition, headlights, and especially with automatic throttle (Cruise Control).

Regarding the engine, Yamaha Nickel uses an 847cc, 3-cylinder, liquid-cooled machine, with a maximum capacity of 115 horsepower and 87.5 Nm of torque. Currently this model is not officially distributed.

Unlike Nickel, Yamaha Tricity is a model suitable for urban areas. It still owns a 3-wheel configuration to help optimize balance and stability for the driver in many situations.

Yamaha Tricity wheels have sizes of 14 inches in front and 12 inches at the rear; tire parameters are 90/80 and 110/90 respectively. The scooter uses disc brakes for both front and rear wheels combined with ABS.

The Yamaha Tricity 125 has dimensions of 1,905 x 735 x 1,215 mm, a seat height of 780 mm. The weight of the car is 156 kg.

The handlebars of Yamaha Tricity are designed quite simply, with buttons such as headlight, start button, and horn. The speedometer cluster is digital, monochrome.

Yamaha Tricity uses a 124.8cc, liquid-cooled engine, with a maximum capacity of approximately 11 horsepower and 10.4 Nm of torque. Like Nickel, this model is currently not officially distributed. In 2016, a private dealer imported this model for about 140 million VND.
