The 2026 Keeway V302C has been launched in India with a small update at a price tag of Rs 4.22 lakh ex-showroom. The main change is a new colour option. Buyers can now pick a bright Glossy Yellow shade along with the earlier red and black.
This is a cosmetic change. The bike remains unchanged in terms of engine and components.
Design and road presence
In terms of design, the V302C retains its stretched low cruiser design. It carries a proper bobber feel which makes it stand out on the road.
- Low seat height
- Long wheelbase
- Wide tyres
The fuel tank has a tear drop shape and gets a glossy finish. The engine and exhaust are finished in black which gives a strong and muscular look.
The front stays simple with a round LED headlight. The handlebar is wide and flat which adds to the relaxed riding posture. Alloy wheels and overall stance give it a solid road presence.
The new yellow colour is the main attraction. It’s vibrant and will stand out from the rest.
At the same time, a few areas feel basic.
- Rear section is very minimal
- Switchgear feels simple
- Instrument cluster is not very premium
That rear design looks clean but may not be very practical for daily use.
Engine and performance
The V302C uses a 298 cc V twin motor. This is one of the key highlights of the bike.
- Power output is around 29 bhp
- Torque is 26.5 Nm
- 6 speed gearbox
The engine is liquid cooled and tuned for smooth power delivery. It feels calm and steady rather than aggressive. This suits relaxed riding and long highway runs.
The bike also has a slipper clutch. This makes downshifts easier and riding more comfortable.
Another important feature is the belt drive system.
- Quieter than chain drive
- Needs less maintenance
This is not very common in this segment, which makes the V302C a bit different.
Hardware and setup
Coming to the hardware, the bike is built on a tubular frame.
- Telescopic front forks
- Twin rear shock absorbers
Braking setup includes disc brakes on both ends.
- Dual channel ABS comes as standard
The fuel tank capacity is 15 litres. This should help in getting a decent range, especially for highway rides.
Features list
The feature list is not very long but covers the basics.
- LED headlight
- Digital instrument console
- Slipper clutch
- Belt drive system
- Dual channel ABS
It sticks to a simple approach rather than adding too many electronics.
