Yamaha Brings Back MotoGP Edition R15 V4 and MT-15, Prices Start at ₹1.76 lakh

Yamaha has reintroduced the Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP Edition for the R15 V4 and MT-15, bringing back the factory racing-inspired livery in response to customer demand. Alongside the special editions, the company has also introduced new colour options for the FZ-S Fi Hybrid and FZ-S Fi without changing their prices.

The MotoGP Editions are cosmetic updates and offer no mechanical changes compared to-15 the standard motorcycles.

MotoGP-inspired styling returns

The special editions feature the same graphics seen on the Yamaha YZR-M1 MotoGP race bike, giving both motorcycles a more aggressive, race-inspired appearance.

Pricing is as follows:

  • Yamaha R15 V4 MotoGP Edition: ₹1.76 lakh (ex-showroom)
  • Yamaha MT-15 MotoGP Edition: ₹1.77 lakh (ex-showroom)

The R15 V4 MotoGP Edition commands a premium of up to ₹3,000 over standard colours, while the MT-15 MotoGP Edition is priced up to ₹13,000 higher than select standard variants.

No mechanical changes

Mechanically, both motorcycles remain unchanged.

Power comes from the familiar 155 cc liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine, producing 18.4 hp and 14.2 Nm of torque. The bikes continue with the same chassis, suspension and feature list as their standard counterparts.

The R15 V4 MotoGP Edition also remains significantly more affordable than the range-topping R15M.

New colours for FZ-S range

Yamaha has also refreshed its FZ-S lineup with new paint schemes.

Updates include:

  • FZ-S Fi Hybrid: New Ice Storm colour, while the Matte Black variant receives revised graphics.
  • FZ-S Fi: New Metallic Black colour option.
