The 2015 range of Yamaha’s Alpha, Ray and Ray Z scooters now come equipped with Yamaha’s Next Generation ‘Blue Core’ engine technology.
This technology has been developed with the objectives of increasing combustion efficiency, increase cooling efficiency and reduce power loss. And this, Yamaha says, will make the scooters more fuel efficient, boasting of improved mileage of 66kmpl (as against 62kmpl claimed in the earlier variants).
The new scooter models based on Blue Core technology are powered by a newly designed air-cooled 113cc four stroke single cylinder engine. The changes though are minimal, with a nickel spark plug, for improved combustion, new muffler setting and new BS carburetor and TPS setting.
“We are eying around 10 percent share in the fast growing scooter market in India this year riding on our three scooter offerings. Currently, we have over 5 percent market share in the scooter segment, which is pegged at around 3 lakh units per month. The success of the Ray, Ray Z, and Alpha scooters are essential to Yamaha to realize its targets in the coming years. We are looking to place ourselves as a mass-market leader in India and scooters is certainly are main focus to be able to achieve this. Yamaha sees scooters contributing over 50 percent of its sales in the future. Currently, scooters constitute about 40 percent of our sales,” said Roy Kurian, Vice President, Yamaha Motor India Sales Pvt. Ltd.
Yamaha sells the Ray, Ray Z and Alpha scooter models in India. While Ray and Ray Z were launched in the country in 2012 and 2013 respectively, Alpha made its debut during the 2014 Auto Expo. The Blue Core technology in Yamaha’s new engines was first introduced with the FZ FI V2.0 which was launched last year.
