Yamaha, the Japanese automaker is planning to launch two new products in the Indian market this year. The first model to go on sale will be a fully-faired 250cc, Yamaha Fazer 25, followed by an all-new scooter. If reports are to be believed, the new scooter could be Yamaha Nozza Grande. This fashionable city scooter comes with elegant European styling. Globally, this scooter is appreciated for its excellent engine performance, fuel economy and comfort.
In Vietnam, this scooter was specifically launched for female buyers. For the Indian market, Yamaha could position the Nozza Grande as urban scooter for both male and female. To be positioned above Fascino, this scooter has a larger body and a more elegant riding position. The global model is powered by a 125cc single cylinder, 2-valve, SOHC unit that is good for 8.2PS and 9.7Nm of torque. In India, the company could launch this scooter with the existing 113cc unit that also powers the Fascino. This engine produces 7.1PS and 8.1Nm of torque, and has a claimed fuel efficiency of 66kmpl.
This scooter weighs just 99kg and has a fuel tank of 4.4-litre. The vehicle has a ground clearance of 125mm, but Yamaha will make some changes to make it suitable for Indian roads. Talking about features, this scooter has digital instrument console, 27-litre seat storage with LED light, Chrome finish, etc. Read More – Upcoming Yamaha Bikes & Scooters In India
