India Yamaha Motors has updated its portfolio with the launch of the 2022 FZS-Fi. The Yamaha FZS-Fi series competes against the likes of the Bajaj Pulsar 150, TVS Apache RTR 160, and the Hero Xtreme 160R. The latest iteration of the motorcycle packs styling upgrades over its predecessor, and here we list its top five highlights.
Design
The design remains similar to the outgoing version, and the 2022 FZS-Fi retains a sharp headlight at the front, a muscular fuel tank with chrome highlights, an engine cowl, a step-up seat, and a side-slung exhaust. The Dlx variant gets different graphics, coloured alloy wheels, and a dual-tone seat. The dual-tone seat, however, is only available in Metallic Black and Metallic Deep Red colours.
Colours
The 2022 FZS-Fi range will be available in two variants – Standard and Dlx. The standard model is available in two colours – Matte Red and Matte Blue. The Dlx variant, on the other hand, is listed in three paint options – Metallic Black, Metallic Deep Red, and Solid Gray.
Engine
Both the variants of the 2022 FZS-Fi use the same BS6-compliant, 149cc, single-cylinder engine that powered the outgoing version. The motor is tuned to produce 12.2bhp of power at 7,250rpm and 13.3Nm of peak torque at 5,500rpm.
Hardware
The hardware remains unaltered and the 2022 Yamaha FZS-Fi retains telescopic front forks and a preload-adjustable rear mono-shock to handle suspension tasks. The braking duties are performed by single discs on both wheels while the safety net includes a single-channel ABS.
Price
The base variant of the 2022 FZS-Fi has been priced at Rs 1,15,900 while the Dlx variant is available at Rs 1,18,900 (ex-showroom Delhi). These models are scheduled to arrive at all authorised Yamaha dealerships from the second week of January 2022 and the deliveries should commence soon after.
