2024 model of Yamaha Vino 50cc scooter focuses primarily on visual updates that include three new colour options
In its home market Japan, Yamaha has introduced the 2024 version of the Vino 50cc compact scooter. The cute looking two-wheeler is preferred for its retro styling, lightweight profile and high fuel efficiency. While three new colour options are available, mechanicals remain the same as earlier.
2024 Yamaha Vino – New colours
Three new colour options have been introduced – Fighting Red, Puko Blue and Matte Jeans Blue Metallic. The one that really stands out is the Matte Blue shade. It has contrasting Cyan and Gray graphics on the front and side panels. Chrome finishing on the turn indicators, circular rear-view mirrors, grab rail and tail lamp housing further enhances the scooter’s charming profile.
Vino’s new red colour comes in glossy finish. It has black and silver graphics on the front and side panels. The floorboard area, glovebox and the seat are done entirely in black. The third new colour option of Puco Blue is the most sober.
However, the colour palette is much wider. There’s a vibrant mix of light blue, ivory white, black and brown. Front and side panels have graphics in brown shade. The Puco Blue appears to best complement the retro profile of the scooter.
Colour options that have been retained from the outgoing model include Mahogany Brown Metallic, Harvest Beige and Graphite Black. Three colour options available with the 2023 model have been removed – Pearl Shining Yellow, Matte Armored Green Metallic and Bonnie Blue. There are now a total of six colour options available with 2024 Yamaha Vino 50cc scooter. Apart from the three new colours and three discontinued shades, there aren’t any major visual updates to the scooter.
