Mixed Design
The front fascia is very similar to the Mio Smile with the turn signals and dusk lights integrated below. But uniquely, the rear tail actually resembles the first generation Mio Soul with a more rounded design and rear lights. The appearance is quite interesting and can be used as a reference.

Back to the design, the wheel shape is still maintained with 5 fan-shaped spokes wrapped in 70/90 front and 80/90 rear tires, the new model mirrors are sharp like the latest Yamaha scooters, the exhaust design is different.
