Yamaha MT 15: Powerful mileage
Yamaha MT 15 is far ahead in terms of mileage compared to the bikes of its segment. This bike is capable of giving mileage of up to 56 kmpl according to ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India). This not only makes it a stylish bike, but also proves to be an economical option for everyday use. Considering the rising prices of petrol in today’s time, this mileage is really very attractive.
Powerful engine and great performance
Yamaha MT 15 is equipped with a 155cc liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, SOHC, 4-valve single-cylinder engine. This engine generates a maximum power of 18.4 PS (13.5 kW) at 10,000 rpm and a peak torque of 14.1 Nm at 7,500 rpm. It has Yamaha’s special VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) technology. This technology helps the engine to give excellent performance at both low and high speeds, so that whether driving in the city or on the highway, the ride experience is always great. Features like 6-speed gearbox and slipper clutch make gear changes even smoother and prevent the rear wheel from locking when suddenly downshifting the gear, making riding even safer.
Attractive looks and aggressive design
The naked streetfighter look of Yamaha MT 15 appeals to the youth at first sight. Its aggressive LED headlight (also called ‘bi-functional LED’), muscular fuel tank (which has a capacity of around 10 litres) and sharp body graphics give it a distinct identity on the road. Its small and compact design helps it to maneuver easily in city traffic, while its sporty stance gives it a strong look. Telescopic front forks (upside down forks in V2.0) and monoshock rear suspension make the ride comfortable.

The ex-showroom price of the Yamaha MT 15 starts at around ₹ 1.68 lakh in India (this price may vary slightly in different states and cities). Considering the features and performance offered at this price, this bike is a great ‘value for money’ deal for youngsters who want a sports bike with a premium feel. The bike is available in different colours and variants, including Standard and V2.0. The V2.0 variant gets some additional features like Bluetooth connectivity and upside down front forks.
