  1. Both bikes remain mechanically unchanged
  2. Gets MotoGP inspired paint scheme

Both the MT-15 and R15M now feature MotoGP-inspired livery on the tank shrouds, fuel tank, side panels, and a Monster Energy logo on the front mudguard. For this new colour scheme, the MT-15 is priced at just Rs. 700 more than its deluxe variant, while the R15M is Rs 2000 more expensive than its metallic silver variant. There are, however, no changes on the equipment front. 

Mechanically, both bikes remain unchanged, powered by the same 155cc liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine delivering 18.4hp and 14.2Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. Although the bikes share the same engine and gearbox, the R15 M comes equipped with a quickshifter. The suspension set up consists of USD fork and monoshock. Braking duties are handled by disc brakes on both ends with dual channel ABS.
