Top 5 Things About The Yamaha FZ-S Fi Hybrid
Yamaha has introduced the FZ-S Fi Hybrid, priced at Rs 1.45 lakh (ex-showroom), featuring advanced mild-hybrid technology similar to that found in several Yamaha and TVS scooters. That being said, here are the top 5 things about the Yamaha FZ-S Fi Hybrid.
What Is It?
This FZ-S Fi Hybrid motorcycle incorporates a Starter Motor Generator (SMG) that enables a silent start-up and supports the stop/start system for improved fuel economy. The addition of mild-hybrid tech provides a temporary battery-assisted acceleration boost, further enhancing the bike's efficiency.
Powertrain
Equipped with an OBD2B-compliant engine, the FZ-S Fi Hybrid shares its 149cc single-cylinder, air-cooled powertrain with the standard model, delivering 12.4hp and 13.3Nm of torque through a 5-speed transmission. Compliance with stricter emission norms and the integration of hybrid technology have made the bike slightly heavier, weighing in at 138kg.
Features
The FZ-S Fi Hybrid stands out with its 4.2-inch TFT display, providing Bluetooth connectivity for seamless smartphone integration. This addition brings a suite of new features to the rider's fingertips, including turn-by-turn navigation through Google Maps, music control, geo-fencing, and the ability to pinpoint the last parked location.
Other Changes
Yamaha has made several ergonomic and aesthetic adjustments to the FZ-S Fi Hybrid to improve the riding experience. The handlebar positioning has been optimized, and the horn switch repositioned, along with tweaks to the switchgear, ensuring better accessibility, especially for riders wearing gloves. Furthermore, the introduction of two new colour options, Racing Blue and Cyan Metallic Grey, provides more choices for customers looking to personalize their ride.
Price
At a cost of Rs 1.45 lakh, the Yamaha FZ-S Fi Hybrid is set at Rs 10,000 above the price of the standard FZ-S Fi model, which remains available through Yamaha's website. This price reflects the advanced hybrid technology and added features that the new model brings to the table, offering riders a more efficient, connected, and enjoyable motorcycling experience.
