These are not major product changes, but they do help keep the FZ range visually current. For a motorcycle family that has always relied on its everyday practicality and broad appeal, even a colour update can matter to buyers who want a slightly more premium look without moving to a higher segment.

The FZ-S Fi Hybrid starts at Rs 1,39,200, while the FZ-S Fi Standard starts at Rs 1,29,880, both ex-showroom Delhi.

The bikes continue to use the Deltabox frame, USD front forks and linked-type Monocross rear suspension. They also get disc brakes at both ends with dual-channel ABS, along with traction control, riding modes, quickshifter, gear position indicator, Y-Connect smartphone connectivity and a digital clock with auto adjustment through smartphone pairing.
