What are the differences between Haojue VF125 and VF100?

Displacement and appearance are different. Below is the relevant introduction: Scooter motorcycles: Scooter motorcycles are basically equipped with continuously variable transmission and automatic clutches, similar to Mullan-style electric vehicles. They have no gear design. After starting, you only need to twist the throttle to move, and releasing the throttle will gradually slow down until stopping. Additionally, the wheels of scooters are smaller than those of other vehicles. Haojue motorcycles: Haojue motorcycles are very popular both domestically and internationally. Domestic sales and service stores are almost spread across every large, medium, and small city, every county, and major townships throughout the country. Traveling across the vast regions of China, from urban streets to rural roads and even farm fields, Haojue users can be seen everywhere. Due to the concentrated user base in many counties, townships, and villages, most families own Haojue brand motorcycles, leading to the nicknames "Haojue County," "Haojue Township," and "Haojue Village."
I see many people asking about the differences between these two models. Both are Haojue scooters, but their powertrains are distinct. The VF125 is equipped with a 124cc engine, delivering up to 6.5 kW of power, which provides noticeably stronger acceleration and can easily handle carrying a passenger or climbing hills. In contrast, the VF100 has a 97cc engine with just over 5 kW of power, sufficient for solo riding but struggles during quick acceleration. The tire specifications also differ: the 125 comes with 90/90-12 tires, while the 100 has 3.50-10 front tires and 90/90-10 rear tires, making the 125 significantly more stable on rough roads. The fuel tank capacity is 5.9 liters for the 125 compared to 4.5 liters for the 100, which makes a big difference in convenience for long-distance rides. Most importantly, the price difference is only two to three hundred yuan. If you frequently carry passengers or ride in suburban areas, the 125 is the clear choice. For pure urban commuting and short trips, the 100 offers excellent fuel economy.
I just studied the spec sheets of these two siblings, and the differences are concentrated in three main areas. In terms of power, the 125cc engine delivers 30% more horsepower than the 100cc, especially noticeable in acceleration after 40 km/h. The braking system on the 125 features a front disc and rear drum, while the 100 only has drum brakes on both ends, making a difference of two to three meters in braking distance in the rain—quite critical. On the details, the 125's under-seat storage can fit a half helmet, whereas the 100's is much smaller; the headlight brightness is 35W on the 125 compared to just 25W on the 100, making a noticeable difference at night. Fuel tank capacity also affects practicality—the 125 can go over 200 km on a full tank, while the 100 maxes out at 180 km before needing a refill. Maintenance costs are about the same, but parts for the 125 are easier to find. Overall, spending a bit more for the 125 is a smarter choice.
