    Superb choice I must say!
    For once the ambassador and the brand identity has a distinct match!

      "... to promote its scooter range"

      Does it mean that we can hope to see more scooters from Yamaha stable very soon?

        Their products are also made only for their endorsers I believe. Only John Abraham (afforded only by rich-litre bikes) and Deepika Padukone (Black & Pink combo scooterette) can use their products.

        Atleast they are trying to stay in news

          yamaha has been doing a thorough readiness for entry into scooter market for more than 14 months now -- so this is not a random act to stay in news

          & seeing the scooter sales propelling honda to 2nd spot in terms of numbers everyone will want a share of the same pie

              If that were true you wouldnt have seen advertising\marketing as sciences!

              +1 on what DK said!

              .. Range of scooters could mean another product.
              ... Bring back the joy could mean the "4stroke" RX100 or a new bike

                    World revolves around Marketing...there are great products which has lost its share due to poor marketing & there are few Bakwas products which have hit just because of marketing

                    Sorry for the OT

                    Hope Yes Yam has done a good charming choice by getting DP for their Scoot range

                        Historically its proven if you have beauty with the perfect matching, then the strategy can bring a win win situation and yamaha bikes and after sales service is known my majority of us very well so there is a high possibility that it can bring good sales number, but at the same time women under 24 only kinda slogan can be a -ve mark and honda can win here.

                          Scooter Range? That means more than one scooter? Hmm.. does that mean the wait for that much acticipated/speculated/rumored 250 cc (R25 or FZ-25) is getting longer?

                          Get the product spot on and one doesn't need to resort to celebrities to push them.. The R15 and FZ (series) would have sold equally well without John Abraham.


                          P.S: I would have liked the fresh Miss Diana Penty instead of Miss Deepika as the eye candy

                              According to Bike india "The company will be introducing more scooters in the coming months, which will be aimed purely at city commuters."

                              so sadly.. no bikes !! I guess Bajaj is our saviour now !

                              And i think when R15 and FZ16 were launched.. john wasnt the ambassador. He was signed up later.
                              Regardless, Life shall go on.
