India Yamaha Motor has launched the Cygnus Ray-ZR scooter, which was first revealed at the Auto Expo 2016 in February.
With the Cygnus Ray-ZR, Yamaha’s scooter line-up stands expanded to five models including the Cygnus Ray, Cygnus Ray Z, Cygnus Alpha and the Fascino.
Priced at Rs 52,500 for the drum brake model and Rs 54,500 (ex-showroom Delhi) for the disc brake variant, the Cygnus Ray-ZR is targeted at young male riders in India, particularly those keen on style and technology.
Powered by an air-cooled, four-stroke, SOHC, 2-valve 113cc Blur Core engine with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) unit, the 103kg scooter claims to deliver fuel efficiency of 66 kilometres per litre. Other highlights include 21-litre under-seat storage, instrument cluster with good readability, even at night and tubeless tyres.
