Yamaha FZS FI V4 Price in Nepal and Availability
Talking about the cost, the Yamaha FZS FI V4 price in Nepal is yet to be announced. However, we can expect the price to be around Rs. 4.30 Lakhs to Rs. 4.60 Lakhs considering its price in India.
Yamaha FZS V4 is likely to launch in 2024, possibly during events like the NADA Auto Show or festive seasons. The exact date may vary due to different circumstances, but there’s a strong chance of it happening mid or late this year.
The rivals of Yamaha FZS FI V4 are TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and Suzuki Gixxer.
On a similar price segment, both rivals provide a larger capacity engine and produce more power and torque. Likewise, Yamaha FZS FI V4 has more sporty looks, lighter kerb weights, and better mileage.
The price of the predecessor FZS FI V3 is still more expensive than the rivals. Having said this, Yamaha should keep the pricing of FZS FI V4 more aggressive to compete with its rivals.
It will be interesting to see how they set the price and how the market responds.
