Yamaha India Sells 85000 Units of FZ in 2009
After a spiraling success of the stupendous 150cc FZ16, Yamaha India launched another variant of the same bike with exactly same features albeit with different color tones and named it FZS. Fortunately for Yamaha, FZS was also a grand success despite the 3k difference just for a more funky color theme. As Yamaha saw their sales dipping for their flagship model and to keep the freshness in the product alive, they have launched two new color variants of the bike, Blue with silver graphics and Black with green graphics.
When Yamaha launched the R15 and the FZ series in India a few years back, everyone was mesmerized by the prospects and the technology both of these bikes boasted off. Within a span of few days, both these bikes became a hot favorite among youngsters especially the FZ as R15 was not affordable for all. Till now, FZ series, which includes FZ16 , FZS and the semi faired Fazer, has been a cherished possession of more than 1 lakh customers. Yamaha sold 85,000 units of FZ16 & FZ-S in the bygone 2009 fiscal year which accounted for 40 percent of the total sales of the company for the complete year.
