2026 Kawasaki Ninja 300 Launched in India with New Paint Schemes at Rs 3.17 Lakh

Kawasaki has launched the 2026 Ninja 300 in India at an ex-showroom price of Rs 3.17 lakh, keeping one of its most recognised sport motorcycles on sale for another year. The Ninja 300 has long been known as the brand’s entry point into the twin-cylinder segment, and for 2026, Kawasaki has chosen to refresh the bike visually. The motorcycle continues to be available at authorised dealerships across the country. While the overall design, engine and hardware remain unchanged, the new paint schemes give the Ninja 300 a different presence on the road. It is a familiar machine, but one that still carries the feel of a proper, fully-faired sport bike for everyday riders.

For the 2026 model year, the Ninja 300 gets two new colour options. Buyers can choose between Lime Green and Candy Lime Green with Ebony. The updated graphics bring a cleaner look while keeping the classic Ninja styling intact. The fairing shape, sharp panels and riding stance remain exactly how riders know them.

The Ninja 300 continues to use the 296cc parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine. This engine makes 39bhp at 11,000rpm and 26.1Nm of torque at 10,000rpm. It comes paired with a six-speed gearbox and includes a slipper clutch, which helps during quick downshifts and keeps the ride smooth, especially when pushing through traffic or open stretches of road.

The chassis setup remains unchanged. The Ninja 300 uses a steel diamond frame along with telescopic forks at the front and a monoshock at the rear. Disc brakes handle stopping duties on both wheels, supported by dual-channel ABS. The setup feels familiar and continues to offer stable road behaviour for daily riding and weekend runs.

In terms of features, the Ninja 300 keeps its semi-digital instrument cluster with an analogue tachometer and a digital screen showing speed, fuel level, trip meters and time. Projector headlamps and LED tail lamps remain part of the package
