The Yamaha NVX 150 sports a design inspired by Yamaha's motorcycle lineup with dual headlight clusters, a motorcycle-inspired exhaust canister and a taillight cluster with LED brakelights.

Power for the Yamaha NVX 150 is expected to come from the same engine powering the Yamaha NMax. This is a 155 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled unit capable of 14.88 hp at 8,000 rpm and 14.4 Nm of torque at 6,000 rpm, and is paired to a V-Belt CVT unit.

Similar to the NMax, the Yamaha NVX 150 gets a petal-shaped disc brake at the front though the rear does with a drum brake. However, ABS and alloy wheels are expected to remain standard on the scooter. The Yamaha NVX 150 is expected to measure in the whereabouts of the NMax, at 1,955 mm in length, 745 mm in width, 1,115 mm in height and 1,350 mm in wheelbase. For reference, the NMax weighs 127 kg.

An all LCD instrument cluster is part of the feature list, as is a keyless start system.
