New Delhi, September 12 (Patrika English News): Suzuki has unveiled a new Special Edition of its legendary hyperbike, the Hayabusa, in international markets. While the powerhouse engine remains unchanged, the edition brings an exclusive colour scheme and visual enhancements — leaving Indian fans eager to know if it will arrive here.
What’s new?
The highlight is the new Pearl Vigor Blue bodywork with crisp white accents, evoking Suzuki’s racing heritage. It also gets a retro-style bold emblem on the tank, a matching pillion seat cowl, and powder-coated black exhaust muffler tips with heat shields for a sharper look.
Engine and performance
Mechanically, there are no updates. The Hayabusa continues with its 1,340cc inline-four engine producing 188 bhp and 149 Nm of torque — renowned for its blend of blistering speed and everyday usability.
Features carried over
The current-generation Hayabusa comes with a six-axis IMU, traction control, ride modes, bi-directional quickshifter, engine brake control, anti-lift control, multiple launch control settings (internationally), cruise control, hill-hold assist, and dual-channel ABS. The India-spec version, however, skips certain electronic settings like adjustable launch control.
India launch possibility
Suzuki has not confirmed if the special edition will come to India. But with the Hayabusa’s strong fan base and the current model priced at ?16.90 lakh (ex-showroom), industry watchers believe Suzuki may bring the edition to cater to festive demand and sustain its aspirational appeal.
