2027 Kawasaki Ninja 500 has arrived in India with a ₹5.76 lakh ex-showroom price. It retains the 451cc parallel-twin engine, 45 PS power and 42.6 Nm torque, while getting a fresh Lime Green colour scheme and bookings now open across Kawasaki dealerships.
Kawasaki has brought the 2027 Ninja 500 to the Indian market with an ex-showroom price of ₹5.46 lakh.
While the latest model does not introduce a major mechanical overhaul, Kawasaki has kept the Ninja 500 in its middleweight sportbike range with a fresh lime green colour and the same 451cc parallel twin package.
This has made the motorcycle an interesting option for riders looking to move into a proper Kawasaki sports machine.
The bigger story behind the Ninja 500 isn't simply the new model-year badge.
Kawasaki has positioned this motorcycle as a more approachable alternative to its larger Ninja models, offering a mix of sporty styling, usable performance, and everyday comfort rather than an uncompromising, track-focused machine.
