Scoop! Yamaha to launch three new bikes in India by October 2010

The Fazer/FZ 250 is one of the main vehicles of the trio that will be launched in October 2010. There were reports that Yamaha India had tested the 250cc engine in the current FZ chassis and body for over eight months and that the ARAI approval has been achieved too. The FZ25 / Fazer 250 will be based on the Fazer 250 / Scorpio 250 that was recently launched in the ASEAN markets like Indonesia. The bike is powered by a 250cc fuel injected mill that is good for 21PS of power and 20.5 Nm of torque.

In fact, Yamaha India is gearing up for some big promotional events, starting September 2010, for these new vehicles. We all are much anticipated for getting in to this show. Watch out this space for more news on Yamaha.

This looks like a promising product, but pricing is important. Yamaha is doing a good job as a premium bike manufacturer. Hope they remain the same.

Yamaha unveils three new bikes

NEW DELHI: Yamaha on Wednesday introduced three new bikes aimed at consolidating its position in the mass market segment besides taking its overall market share to 10 per cent by 2012 from 3 per cent. The Japanese bikemaker also wants high-volume Indian market to contribute more to its global sales as other Asian markets like Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.

The YBR125, with 123 cc engine and mileage of over 71 km a litre, has been priced at Rs.47,000. It would mainly cater to the mass segment between 100cc and 125cc.

Another new bike SZ with 153cc engine and mileage of over 62 km a litre will come with Rs.49,000 price tag, while its electric-start model has been priced at Rs.52,000. This stylish bike will target both youth in both urban and rural markets.

“These feature-rich and stylish bikes will help us make further inroads in the Indian bike market. With our expanding network and launch of new models, we hope to increase our market share fast in the country,” India Yamaha Motor CEO and Managing Director Yukimine Tsuji told journalists here.

In the current year so far, Yamaha has recorded almost 100 per cent growth in sales, and the company hopes that the new bikes would further fuel it.

It sold just 2.2-lakh units in India in 2009 and was aiming to double it sales this year, and then take it further to 10-lakh units in the next 3-4 years.

“We hope to capture at least 10 per cent market share in next 3-4 years, while over share in the up-market segment would touch nearly 30 per cent from the current level of 10 per cent,” said India Yamaha Motor National Business Head Pankaj Dubey.
