Yamaha R15, MT-15 MotoGP Edition Return; FZ Range Gets New Colours

Japanese bikemaker Yamaha has reintroduced the Monster Energy MotoGP Edition on the YZF-R15 V4 and MT-15 Version 2.0, priced from Rs 1,76,050 and Rs 1,77,230 ex-showroom Delhi, respectively. Yamaha has brought back the special editions in response to strong customer demand for the racing-inspired livery.

Alongside the R15 and MT-15 special editions, Yamaha has widened its FZ range with new colour options across the FZ-S Fi Hybrid and FZ-S Fi. The Hybrid variant is priced from Rs 1,39,200, while the standard FZ-S Fi starts at Rs 1,29,880.

Yamaha R15 & MT-15 MotoGP Editions Return

The livery on both the MotoGP homage bikes is identical to the one Yamaha offered previously, with the tank shrouds, fuel tank and side panels finished in the brand's signature MotoGP-inspired graphics. Distinctive race-bred decals and premium styling set the special MotoGP editions apart from the standard R15 V4 and MT-15.

Mechanically, the MotoGP Edition R15 V4 and MT-15 continue with the same 155cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine featuring variable valve actuation. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox and pushes out 18.4PS of peak power and 14.2Nm of torque. The big difference between the R15 V4 and the MT-15 comes in the form of slightly altered sprocketing for a different power delivery character.

Both motorcycles get a TFT instrument console with smartphone connectivity, dual-channel ABS and a USB charging port as standard. The R15 V4 also adds traction control and a quick shifter offered on its higher trims, features the MT-15 does not get.

Yamaha FZ-S Fi Range Gets New Colour Options

The FZ-S Fi Hybrid now comes in a new Ice Storm shade that blends grey and blue tones with lighter graphics across the tank extensions and side panels. Its existing Matte Black option carries updated decals for a sportier, more dynamic look without altering the base colour.

The standard FZ-S Fi, meanwhile, adds a Metallic Black colourway that pairs dark bodywork with red graphics and matching red detailing on the alloy wheels, lending the motorcycle a bolder street presence. The 2026 FZ-S Fi palette now spans five options: Ice Storm, Matte Black, Cyan Metallic Grey, Metallic Black and Ice Fluo-Vermillion.

Yamaha has confirmed there are no mechanical changes to the FZ-S Fi and FZ-S Fi Hybrid alongside the new colours, with the update limited strictly to paint and graphics.
