The motorcycle handlebar has now been optimised for more comfort, switches adjusted for better accessibility, repositioned horn switch for ease of use and an airplane-style fuel cap.

Itaru Otani, Chairman, Yamaha Motor India Group, said, “The FZ brand has played a crucial role in Yamaha’s journey in India, evolving with every generation to meet the changing expectations and practical requirements of our customers. By introducing hybrid technology in this segment, we are not only elevating performance but also reinforcing our commitment to bringing advanced, rider-focused innovations. Every update to the FZ series has been shaped by customer insights, ensuring a more refined, dynamic, and engaging riding experience. This launch is a testament to Yamaha’s commitment to innovation, where advanced technology and rider-centric design come together to shape the future of mobility.”
