Suzuki Motorcycle India Private Limited, the wholly owned Indian subsidiary of Suzuki Motor Corporation, Japan, has recently launched the Suzuki Hayabusa 25th Anniversary Celebration Edition in the Indian market. The brand is celebrating 25 years of the outstanding superbike Hayabusa with the new robust model. The latest Suzuki Hayabusa is available at a price of INR 17.70 lakh (ex-showroom). Suzuki Motorcycle is offering the special edition with a range of cosmetic updates to make it stand out from the outgoing standard version. The new motorcycle is about INR 80,000 more costly than the standard Hayabusa.
The Hayabusa 25th Anniversary Celebration Edition pays tribute to 25 years of the robust bike. The two-wheeler giant first unveiled the Suzuki Hayabusa on the Indian market in 1998. The Hayabusa is a famous model in India and continues to be a symbol of success even in its most recent generation, which has been in production since 2021. In 2016, Suzuki Motorcycle India started locally manufacturing the Hayabusa due to the significant demand, as India was among the final markets where the second-generation model was still manufactured.
