Yamaha MTR01 and YZF R1 launched in India

Yamaha has become the first player in the market to bring their niche motorcycle products in the Indian market.

The company has now launched their MTR01 and YZF R1 premium bikes in the Indian market. These bikes are priced at Rs 10.5 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

Yamaha is now a small player in the Indian two wheeler market and they aim to generate the much needed excitement by launching these new products.

A company representative said: “We are looking at re-establishing the Yamaha brand in the country. We are therefore looking at fresh products targeted at the niche segment with better technology.”

Yamaha now has no plan to concentrate on the commuter or 100 cc segment anymore.

Yamaha Motor India CEO & MD Tomotaka Ishikawa added: “We would look at niche segments and would be launching some fresh products at the Auto Expo in January 2008.”
