Yamaha MotoGP Editions

Yamaha has reintroduced the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Edition colour schemes on the R15 V4 and MT-15, responding to what the brand says is strong customer demand. The livery replicates the graphics on the Yamaha YZR-M1 factory MotoGP machine and has previously appeared on the R15 and MT-15.

  1. MT-15 MotoGP Edition costs up to Rs 13,000 more than standard colours
  2. No mechanical changes on either MotoGP Edition
  3. FZ-S Fi Hybrid and FZ-S Fi get new colours at unchanged prices

Yamaha MotoGP Editions and new colours

Alongside the MotoGP Editions, Yamaha has also added new colour options to the FZ-S Fi Hybrid and FZ-S Fi.

The R15 V4 MotoGP Edition is priced at Rs 1.76 lakh, making it up to Rs 3,000 more expensive than the standard colour options. Meanwhile, the MT-15 MotoGP Edition is priced at Rs 1.77 lakh, making it up to Rs 13,000 more expensive than some colourways of the standard MT-15. Both are purely cosmetic updates, with no changes to the mechanical package. Both bikes are powered by the same 155cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine producing 18.4hp and 14.2Nm. It's worth noting that the MotoGP Edition R15 V4 remains considerably more affordable than the top-spec R15M, which is priced closer to Rs 2 lakh.

On the FZ-S front, the FZ-S Fi Hybrid gets a new Ice Storm colour scheme, while the existing Matte Black variant receives updated graphics. The FZ-S Fi gets a new Metallic Black option. Both models are priced unchanged at Rs 1.39 lakh and Rs 1.29 lakh respectively
