Yamaha has introduced Bluetooth enabled technology for its two-wheelers in India. Initially, this feature will be made available with the FZS-FI Dark Knight variant. However, the entire series of the FZ-FI and FZS-FI motorcycles can be upgraded to this technology by buying the device as an extra accessory at authorized Yamaha dealerships and connect to Yamaha Motorcycle Connect X app.
With the introduction of the Bluetooth connectivity feature, the FZS-FI Dark Knight price has been revised. It now costs INR 1,07,700 (ex-showroom, Delhi). The 150cc motorcycle with the new feature will be available for sale from 1 November onwards.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Motofumi Shitara, Chairman, Yamaha Motor India Group of companies, said:
