Kawasaki India finally released the BS6 compatible version of the Ninja 300 at Rs. 3.18 lakh (ex-showroom). The Kawasaki Ninja 300 is already the brand's most affordable model in India and the launch of BS4 was suspended in December 2019 before the April 2020 deadline to comply with BS6 regulations. The bike was due to arrive in the mid-2020s but was delayed due to the pandemic. However, the Ninja 300 BS6 is available here at a price tag of over Rs. 20,000 over the BS4 version, but without many designs and powertrain changes.
