The new Metallic Red colour option of the Yamaha R15 v3.0 has a shiny finish. The front end of the motorcycle, above the headlamp, is blacked-out for a sportier look. The fairing, fuel tank, and rear cowls are finished in the new red colour and contain black highlights. The red and black combination does look pretty nice on this motorcycle.

Apart from the new colour option, no other changes have been implemented in the motorcycle.
