Slight changes were made in 2003. The Aerox was renamed to Aerox R and the 100 cc model was discontinued. The 2-stroke 50 cc model was updated with a newer exhaust, tachometer and a newer type of ignition and CDI. In 2013, Yamaha launched the updated Aerox with an updated body design and the introduction of the Aerox Naked and Aerox 4 (equipped with 4-stroke engine).
