Yamaha has added a new model to its Saluto range, with which it has also revived its legendary RX badge. However, the Saluto RX, unlike its wheelie-happy predecessor, is Yamaha’s bid to achieve big sales numbers in the hotly contested 110cc commuter space. It rivals the likes of the Honda Dream Neo, Hero Passion XPro and the recently launched TVS Victor. While you cannot choose the pick of the lot without a head-to-head battle, here’s how Yamaha’s latest offering fares against the competition on paper.

Powertrain (Engine and Gearbox)

The Saluto RX’s 110cc single-cylinder motor generates 7.5hp of power and 8.5Nm of torque, both of which are the lowest outputs in this comparison. The TVS Victor on the other hand produces the healthiest outputs of 9.6hp and 9.4Nm from its 109cc engine. The Hero Passion XPro’s 109.1cc engine cranks out 8.7hp and 9.36Nm, while the Honda Dream Neo’s 109.2cc motor delivers 8.36hp and 8.63Nm of torque. All four bikes transmit power to the rear wheels via a four-speed transmission.
