Q. Gd eve team, which is best, NINJA 300 or Yamaha MT 03? Let me know on what basis you're listing your options, whether you see BHP , NM or Mileage? I am curious to know about TVS zeppelin also, your comment on that please.
  • Hello Vivek, The Yamaha MT-03 has not been launched in India yet, and is unlikely to enter the country any time soon. The Ninja 300 on the other hand has been heavily localised with competitive pricing. It's a good all-rounder with a decent balance of efficiency and power. The TVS Zeppelin is just in its concept stage as of now. We believe TVS will take at least a year to bring the Zeppelin to production. Even then, it is likely to have only a small-capacity motor as the brand- known for sporty motorcycles would just be testing waters with a cruiser.
