Yamaha Motor Pakistan recently unveiled an updated version of its popular YB125Z-DX motorcycle model. The new iteration features revised graphics and color options but minimal changes to performance or features.
Priced at Rs. 440,500, the 2023 YB125Z-DX represents a Rs. 17,000 price increase over the previous model. New colorways include metallic gray, red, and black. Yamaha touts the bike’s stylish new look along with its comfortable suspension and dynamic performance.
Industry observers note that while aesthetic flourishes may attract some buyers, most consumers desire meaningful upgrades in power, handling, or comfort.
With no notable performance changes, questions surround whether the visual makeover provides sufficient value to justify the YB125Z-DX’s price hike.
Yamaha’s incremental approach spotlights the balance between cosmetic and functional advancements in Pakistan’s motorcycle market. For the 2023 YB125Z-DX, style takes priority over substance.
The company bets that striking new colors and graphics will entice riders, even without mechanical improvements under the hood.
