Yamaha Thailand introduces new MT-03 Dark Blast edition

KUALA LUMPUR: The Yamaha MT-03 was introduced back in 2005 and since then the naked motorcycle has won a lot of hearts and numbers for the brand. Over the years, the MT family has grown and moved on to become one of Yamaha’s most popular offerings.

For those who aren’t aware, MT stands for ‘Master of Torque’ and the range includes MT-07, MT-09, and MT-03. The former two motorcycles are the most appropriate representation of the title, as the latter, is a smaller variant and is most popular in Asian countries. In Malaysia, it is sold under the nameplate, MT-25.

That being said, the MT-03 has received a brand new edition, the Dark Blast, in Thailand. And today, we’ll be discussing the latest addition to the MT family in detail. So, let’s get started

Engine: Powering the MT-03 Dark Blast edition is the same mill that does duty on the regular model. So, a 321 cc parallel-twin engine generates a max power of 37.1 at 10,590 rpm along with a peak torque of 28 Nm at 9,010 rpm.

Exterior design: The MT-03 latest edition is best known for its new colour tones. The list includes two new hues, one with great bodywork and cyan-coloured wheels and the other featuring an all-black treatment.

Features: Offering the rider peace of mind along with the fun of riding dynamics are features like full LED lighting, digital LCD instrument cluster, and dual-channel ABS.

Price: In Thailand, the all-new 2022 Yamaha MT-03 retails for THB 195,510 (around RM 23.8k).
