Chennai, Tamil Nadu – 10 July 2026: India Yamaha Motor (IYM) Pvt. Ltd. today announced the launch of the FZ-Blue Flex, a significant step in its journey toward carbon neutrality and sustainable mobility. Aligned with India’s Viksit Bharat vision and the government’s push for alternate fuel technologies, the FZ Blue Flex introduces innovative flex-fuel capability to Yamaha’s popular FZ lineup. Yamaha FZ Blue Flex is priced at INR 1,24,240 (Ex-showroom – Delhi).
Powered by a reliable and trusted Yamaha’s FZ engine - 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’s increasing adoption of ethanol-based fuels, helping reduce fossil fuel dependency and contributing to environmental impact reduction while maintaining Yamaha’s hallmark performance.
Commenting on the launch, Mr. Hajime Aota, Chairman, Yamaha Motor India Group, said: “Achieving a carbon-neutral future requires a dynamic, multi-pathway strategy rather 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’s global sustainability vision with the Indian government’s 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.”
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’s select Blue Square dealerships in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Telangana and Tamil Nadu.
India’s supportive policy framework—promoting ethanol blending, cleaner fuels, and reduced emissions—has accelerated the shift toward sustainable mobility solutions. Yamaha’s introduction of the FZ-Blue Flex reinforces its commitment to these national priorities, while also aligning with the company’s global ambition to achieve carbon neutrality across its product lifecycle.
