Mumbai, October 11: India Kawasaki Motors has officially launched the 2025 edition of the Vulcan S in India, which is priced at INR 7.10 (ex-showroom). It’s worth noting that the cruiser motorcycle's price remains the same as its predecessor. Interestingly, the only update the bike gets is the introduction of a new Pearl Matte Sage Green colour option with minor styling updates. Moreover, the mechanical front of the bike remains untouched.

Though the core of the bike remains the same, there are minor styling updates that give it a refreshed look. Maintaining the typical modern cruiser appeal, the overall presence is highlighted by an oval-shaped headlamp, complemented by blacked-out components. Moreover, 17-18-inch alloys further accentuate its visual appeal. As for features, the Vulcan S gets a semi-digital console without Bluetooth connectivity, and dual-channel ABS, which is a major miss here. New Suzuki GSX-8R Sportbike Launched in India; Here’s How Much Kawasaki Ninja 650, Aprilia RS660 Rival Costs.
