It’s no secret: Metro Manila, for all its vibrancy, has quite a notorious reputation for its vehicular traffic. Very often slow-moving and heavy— if not, bumper-to-bumper— the city streets have become a battleground for your patience and perseverance, with even the best of drivers losing both in fits of frustration. Sure, we have had a bit of a respite from all that, over the course of pandemic-induced lockdowns, which cleared the roads (and the air) for some months. But things are gradually returning to a semblance of normalcy. And, while that’s a good thing, vehicular traffic is again almost at pre-pandemic levels.
Apart from traffic on the city’s main thoroughfares, many of the metro’s side streets, which we often take for shortcuts around traffic, are typically tight and congested with pedestrians and peddlers, alike. It’s difficult to navigate these narrow byways, on board a car.
You can sit it out in your car, spending hours on the road, burning precious time and costly fuel. You can stress about tight road conditions, which make city driving even more of a chore. Or, you can tap into the Culture of Toughness with Yamaha Motor Philippines’ Yamaha Mio Gear, the automatic motorcycle that is the tough and functional, “Ready to Play” solution to all your commuting woes.
Built for your urban needs
Given the situation, scores of commuters have relied on taking motorcycle taxi services to get from Point A to Point B in the easiest manner and quickest possible time. But, with the pandemic, many people have become hesitant about close-contact ride sharing, for health and safety reasons. Moreover, while motorcycle taxi services are indeed much more convenient and faster, they can also be rather costly, in the long run; not to mention, difficult to book, most especially during peak hours.
Not so with your very own motorbike, however. When you invest in a Yamaha Mio Gear, you are making life easier for yourself and investing in your safety and peace of mind, as well. The Mio Gear enables you to enjoy the ride through the concrete jungle. It is built to be tough, functional, resilient, and expressive—everything you need to face the daily challenges of the metro’s potentially stressful streets.
Always ready to play
At a price that won’t break the bank, the Mio Gear is loaded with diverse features that make it a high-performing automatic motorcycle that is always ready to play. Its highly functional design includes an electric power socket, so you never run out of juice for your phone battery; an answer-back system that helps you locate your motorcycle by simply pressing the remote key button; tubeless tires, for comfortable driving and maneuvering; rider-side backstep and a wider slip-resistant footboard, for easy access and convenience; and double hooks so you can load all your items, with ease. The Mio Gear offers all that, in a slim and compact body that is perfect for your own self-expression and individuality, especially given its extensibility.
A tough and functional solution
But this automatic motorcycle is way more than its clean, sleek aesthetic. The Mio Gear is built for toughness and durability. You are ready to play, with its 125cc blue core engine that delivers a steady, comfortable, and enjoyable ride. Plus, with great fuel economy, this is a viable option for today’s environmental needs. The Smart Motor Generator (SMG) works hand-in-hand with the Stop & Start System, which allows for quick, quiet engine restarts—no noise pollution here! Additionally, the Stop & Start System, when activated, aids in economic fuel usage by automatically stopping the engine during idling. Restart the engine quickly with a twist of the throttle grip.
Bright and durable LED lights help you safely traverse the metro’s busy streets, even at night. Meanwhile, hazard lights enable you to signal other motorists during emergency situations.
Elevate your lifestyle, today
The Yamaha Mio Gear is not only your practical solution to your commuting problems; it is also a choice that elevates your lifestyle. Be tough yet ready to play—despite the traffic around you.
