Ltd. announced the launch of the FZ-Blue Flex, a significant step in its journey toward carbon neutrality and sustainable mobility. Aligned with India\u2019s Viksit Bharat vision and the government\u2019s push for alternate fuel technologies, the FZ Blue Flex introduces innovative flex-fuel capability to Yamaha\u2019s popular FZ lineup. Yamaha FZ Blue Flex is priced at INR 1,24,240 (Ex-showroom \u2013 Delhi).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Powered by a reliable and trusted Yamaha\u2019s FZ engine &#8211; 149cc air-cooled, fuel-injected engine, the FZ Blue Flex is engineered to run on ethanol-blended fuels ranging from E20 to E85. This flexibility supports India\u2019s increasing adoption of ethanol-based fuels, helping reduce fossil fuel dependency and contributing to environmental impact reduction while maintaining Yamaha\u2019s hallmark performance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Commenting on the launch, Mr. Hajime Aota, Chairman, Yamaha Motor India Group, said:<\/strong>\u00a0\u201cAchieving a carbon-neutral future requires a dynamic, multi-pathway strategy\u00a0rather than a single solution. Having already commenced our electric vehicle journey in India, the introduction of our innovative Blue Flex technology marks another strategic milestone. This move is a deliberate alignment of Yamaha\u2019s global sustainability vision with the Indian government\u2019s progressive biofuel policies. By embracing multiple technological avenues, we reinforce our commitment to global carbon neutrality goals while providing versatile, high-quality products tailored to the evolving needs of Indian consumers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drawing inspiration from the popular FZ series, the Blue Flex version of FZ features a bold full-LED projector headlamp with integrated position lamps, a sculpted fuel tank with aerodynamic styling cues, faux air vents, and a compact exhaust. A single-piece seat and sharp LED tail lamp enhance both comfort and its sporty, modern road presence. Delivering 8.6 kW of power and 12.8 Nm of peak torque, the FZ-Blue Flex is paired with a smooth 5-speed gearbox. It is equipped with front telescopic suspension and a rear swingarm setup for stable handling, along with ABS for enhanced braking confidence and safety across riding conditions. The FZ Blue Flex will be available in Metallic Black Colour and will be sold through Yamaha\u2019s select Blue Square dealerships in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Telangana and Tamil Nadu.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">India\u2019s supportive policy framework\u2014promoting ethanol blending, cleaner fuels, and reduced emissions\u2014has accelerated the shift toward sustainable mobility solutions. Yamaha\u2019s introduction of the FZ-Blue Flex reinforces its commitment to these national priorities, while also aligning with the company\u2019s global ambition to achieve carbon neutrality across its product lifecycle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pune (Voice news service):- India Yamaha Motor (IYM) Pvt.
