In India, the Yamaha MT-03 and Yamaha YZF-R3 are expected to debut in December. However, Yamaha seized the chance to present these motorcycles at the Bharat MotoGP 2023 in advance of their planned release. In July 2023, both bikes made their formal premiere in India. While the MT-03 is being released in India for the first time, the Yamaha YZF-R3 is making its way back there after a three-year absence.
