Yamaha FZ-S Fi Hybrid Launched At Rs 144,800 - India's First Hybrid 150cc Motorcycle
Japanese motorcycle manufacturer Yamaha has launched the FZ-S Fi Hybrid motorcycle in India. The Yamaha FZ-S Fi Hybrid is priced at Rs 1,44,800 (ex-showroom, Delhi) and is India's first 150cc hybrid motorcycle.
The Yamaha Fz-S Fi was first unveiled to the Indian public at Auto Expo 2025 as the Yamaha FZ-S DLX. The bike showcased at Auto Expo is what has now arrived as the FZ-S Fi Hybrid.
Advanced Powertrain and Rider Assistance Features
The heart of the 'FZ-S Fi Hybrid' is its 149cc Blue Core engine, complemented by Yamaha's Smart Motor Generator (SMG) and a Stop & Start System (SSS). These features work together to ensure quieter starts, provide battery-assisted acceleration, and enhance fuel efficiency. The engine automatically stops when idling and restarts with minimal clutch action, demonstrating Yamaha's commitment to eco-friendly technology without compromising on performance.
Yamaha has significantly improved the riding experience with the introduction of a 4.2-inch full-colour TFT instrument cluster. This interface connects to smartphones via the Y-Connect app and offers Turn-by-Turn navigation through Google Maps. It displays real-time directions, navigation indexes, intersection details, and road names, making for a seamless and hassle-free journey. Additionally, ergonomic adjustments to the handlebar position and switch layout, including a repositioned horn switch and an airplane-style fuel cap, increase comfort and convenience for the rider.
In his statement at the launch, Itaru Otani, Chairman of Yamaha Motor India Group, emphasized the FZ brand's significant role in Yamaha's Indian journey, "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."
Offered in two colours, Racing Blue and Cyan Metallic Grey, the 2025 'FZ-S Fi Hybrid' stands as a testament to Yamaha's innovative spirit and dedication to enhancing the motorcycling experience for riders in India. With this launch, Yamaha sets a new benchmark in the motorcycle industry, promising an exciting and dynamic ride that does not compromise on environmental friendliness or efficiency.
