Yamaha India’s October 2025 sales show a mixed story. The Ray ZR scooter came out as the clear winner, while the popular R15 saw a big drop. These numbers highlight how customer preferences are changing and how recent tax updates have shaped the market. Let’s look at Yamaha’s performance, model-wise sales, and what these trends mean for the company going forward.
Yamaha October 2025 Sales
Yamaha sold 68,375 units in October 2025. This is a 9.27% drop YoY compared to 75,358 units sold in October 2024. Month-on-month, sales were also down by 6.73%, falling from 73,307 units in September 2025.
What makes this more surprising is that the overall two-wheeler market was strong due to the festive season and the benefits of GST 2.0 tax cuts. Even with these advantages, Yamaha’s total numbers slipped.

Yamaha Sales Analysis October 2025
1. YoY Trend : Yamaha’s 9.27% yearly drop shows weaker demand compared to last year. This dip comes even after Yamaha reduced prices in September due to GST 2.0.
2. MoM Trend : A 6.73% fall compared to September shows that even the festive season couldn’t boost Yamaha’s month-to-month numbers.
3. Model-Wise Performance
- Ray ZR remains Yamaha’s biggest strength.
- R15 and Fascino are struggling, showing sharp declines.
- MT-15 is slowly picking up again with strong MoM improvement.
Why Is Ray ZR Leading While R15 Is Falling?
Several reasons explain why Ray ZR is growing while the R15 is sliding down :
1. GST 2.0 Price Benefits
After GST 2.0, Yamaha reduced prices across many models.
- R15 received cuts up to ₹17,581.
- MT-15 also got a price drop.
2. Scooters vs Sports Bikes
- Scooters appeal to a wider audience — daily commuters, students, and first-time buyers.
- Ray ZR is stylish, practical, and fuel-efficient, making it a safe pick.
- The R15 is a sporty, premium bike, and buyers may be moving away due to rising competition or fewer updates.
3. Upcoming Model Strategy
Yamaha is preparing to launch the XSR155, a modern-retro bike based on the R15/MT-15 platform.
This could attract lifestyle-focused buyers who want style plus performance. If launched well, it may help boost Yamaha’s premium segment.
How Yamaha Can Move Forward
- Ray ZR is the star performer. Yamaha should continue pushing it with new variants or features.
- R15 needs attention. Yamaha must decide whether to refresh it, reposition it, or introduce alternatives.
- MT-15 is showing good signs. Its MoM growth shows demand is still strong for sporty commuters.
- Fascino is losing demand fast. Yamaha may need to update the model or rethink its position.
- Aerox 155 is stable and growing slowly. The premium scooter space still has potential.
- The Yamaha October 2025 sales report clearly shows that the Ray ZR is holding the brand strong, while the R15 is losing traction. With price cuts, new models coming soon, and customer preferences shifting, Yamaha has opportunities — but timely action is crucial.
- The next few months will reveal whether new launches and refreshed strategies can turn things around for Yamaha’s premium lineup, especially the R15.
