Yamaha Motors India has launched a new version of the 125cc Saluto. This version features a front disc brake for added safety and four new colour schemes with decals — Glory Green, Bold Blue, Dashing White and Majestic Red.
It will run the same 2-valve 125cc engine producing 8.3PS and 10.71Nm. Yamaha also claims a mileage figure of 78kmpl. It carries forward the alloy wheels and the same body structure from the drum trim, however the addition of the front disc adds 1kg to the kerb weight (113kg).
Roy Kurian, vice president of Yamaha Motor India's sales and marketing department was quoted as saying, "The new Saluto is intended to expand sales in the largest demand category in India by offering one of the best fuel economy performances in the 125cc class. We are again very bullish on the new product which we believe will help us maintain the strong growth numbers we have witnessed in the last few years."
The new Yamaha Saluto with a front disc is priced at Rs 54,500 (ex-showroom Delhi), Rs 2,500 more than the drum variant and will compete with the Bajaj Discover 125M, the Honda CB Shine and the Hero Passion Pro.
