Giving a scooter the feel of shifting through electronic control is an interesting attempt. How rewarding a ride feels comes down to how well you can converse with the machine. If the NMAX brings that kind of fun to everyday city riding, I'll give it credit without hesitation.

YECVT - first time I've heard that name, how's it different from a regular CVT?

How much did the info density actually increase with this dual-panel display?

The MAX series has always been particular about its display info, so this direction of evolution makes sense.

'Electronically controlled CVT' sounds nice, but curious how much of a real-world difference you'd actually feel.

So the NMAX keeps getting refined like this since its first big change, huh.

A CVT with a downshift function is a pretty bold idea for a scooter.
