According to reports, Feb 13 could see the launch of not one but three updated motorcycles. The first one will be the updated MT-15.

The vehicle could also get more colour options than the outgoing one.

Reports state that the updated R15 will feature new technological upgrades that could include a new LCD meter console

The other motorcycles that could see a launch are the updated R15 V4 and the FZ-X. The R15 V4 was launched in 2021 and hasn’t seen an update for some time now. Reports state that the updated bike will feature new technological upgrades that could include a new LCD meter console. It will most likely not have any changes in hardware and will be powered by the same engine that powers the MT-15. The new model of the FZ-X could come with dual channel ABS along with new colour options. The engine powering the FZ-X will possibly be the same 149 cc engine that produced 12.2 bhp and 13.3 Nm of torque.

The new model of the FZ-X could come with dual channel ABS along with new colour options.

The Yamaha R15 is currently available at a starting price of Rs 1.80 lakh, the MT-15 starts from Rs 1.65 lakh, and the FZ-X is priced at Rs 1.34 lakh (all prices ex-showroom, Delhi). The changes made to the engine along with the addition of new features will most likely lead to an increase in prices for each of these motorcycles.
