Yamaha has announced its third price hike of 2023 for all motorcycles. Coincidentally, the announcement comes immediately after Atlas Honda’s price hike announcement.
The last announcement came in March, while this one has brought the price of motorcycles up to Rs. 410,000.
| Model | Old Price (Rs.) | New Price (Rs.) | Hike (Rs.) |
| YB 125Z | 342,500 | 356,000 | 13,500 |
| YB 125Z DX | 366,500 | 381,500 | 15,000 |
| YBR 125 | 376,500 | 391,500 | 15,000 |
| YBR 125G | 391,500 | 407,000 | 15,500 |
| YBR 125G (Matte Gray) | 394,500 | 410,000 | 15,500 |
Yamaha has only raised the prices of its bikes thrice so far. Although, each price hike has been massive.
Last year, the company increased bike prices seven times. As a result of the ongoing economic issues, dealers and industry experts anticipate further price increases this year.
According to the most recent government data, a large percentage of bike manufacturing has been localized in Pakistan. This leaves little reason for motorcycle manufacturers to increase prices so frequently and by such large margins.
Due to the recent price hikes, brand-new bikes have gone beyond reach for a majority of buyers. People have demanded the government’s attention to the matter but haven’t received any response from the concerned parties.
