Keeway V302C — Overview

The Keeway V302C is a cruiser bike available at a starting price of Rs. 4,21,995 in India. It comes in 3 variants and 3 colours. It is powered by a 298 cc BS6 Phase 2 engine and has a expert reported mileage of 36 kmpl. With both front and rear disc brakes, the Keeway V302C comes with anti-locking braking system. The V302C bike weighs 167 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 15 liters. It develops a power output of 29.09 bhp and a torque of 26.5 Nm.

A V-twin engine under Rs 4.25 lakh - that's the one-line case for the Keeway V302C. The 298cc, liquid-cooled V-twin with belt final drive is genuinely exotic in the 300cc cruiser world, where Royal Enfield and Yezdi run single-cylinder motors. At Rs 4.22 lakh (ex-showroom), the V302C turns heads for all the right reasons: it looks and sounds like a bike that costs twice as much, and the 690 mm seat height means even shorter riders can flat-foot it with ease. The tradeoffs are real - Keeway's service network is thin, the suspension is firm enough to remind you of every pothole, and the single-seat setup offers the pillion exactly zero comfort. But if exclusivity and a burbling V-twin pulse are what you're after, nothing else in this budget comes close.

Keeway V302C Latest Updates

View all

  • Keeway launched the MY2026 V302C on April 28, 2026, adding a new Yellow colour option to the existing Glossy Black and Glossy Red lineup. The ex-showroom price remains unchanged at Rs 4.22 lakh, with no mechanical updates or feature changes.

What We Like

  • V-twin engine at Rs 4.22 lakh - rare and exotic in the Indian 300cc cruiser segment
  • Head-turning neo-retro bobber design regularly mistaken for a 650cc or larger cruiser
  • Low 690 mm seat height - shorter riders can flat-foot without drama
  • Belt drive means less maintenance and noticeably smoother, quieter power delivery

What Could Be Better

  • Stiff, short-travel suspension (120 mm front / 42 mm rear) - bad roads are genuinely punishing
  • Very limited Keeway service network across India - after-sales support is a real concern outside major cities
  • Single scooped seat with near-zero pillion comfort - strictly a solo machine

Editor's Verdict

Should You Buy the Keeway V302C?

The Keeway V302C is a niche buy that rewards the right rider. If you want a solo weekend cruiser with a real V-twin pulse, showstopper looks, and you live near a Keeway dealer - it is hard to beat at this price. If you need a pillion-friendly, go-anywhere motorcycle with a strong service network, the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 or Yezdi Roadster are the more practical choices.

Frequently Asked Questions

QWhat is the ex-showroom price of Keeway V302C in Delhi and Mumbai?▾
The Keeway V302C is priced at Rs 4.22 lakh (ex-showroom) across India. The on-road price in Delhi works out to approximately Rs 5.03 lakh and in Mumbai to approximately Rs 5.24 lakh, with the difference driven by state road tax rates and insurance premiums.
QWhat is the mileage of Keeway V302C?▾
The Keeway V302C has an ARAI-certified mileage of 37.03 kmpl. In real-world city riding, owners report around 26-30 kmpl, while steady highway cruising at 75-80 km/h returns 32-35 kmpl. The 15-litre fuel tank gives an estimated range of around 540 km per fill.
QWhat is the estimated EMI for Keeway V302C?▾
With a Rs 50,000 down payment on the Rs 4.22 lakh ex-showroom price and a 36-month loan at approximately 11% per annum, the monthly EMI for the Keeway V302C works out to approximately Rs 8,200-9,000. A 48-month tenure reduces the EMI to around Rs 6,500-7,000.
QHow does Keeway V302C compare to Royal Enfield Meteor 350?▾
The Keeway V302C offers a V-twin engine and belt drive that the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 (single-cylinder, chain drive) cannot match at its price, but the Meteor 350 wins on service network reach, pillion comfort, and overall daily practicality. The V302C is pricier but more exclusive; the Meteor 350 is the safer all-rounder.
QIs Keeway V302C good for long highway rides?▾
The V302C handles solo highway rides well, thanks to its relaxed riding posture, 15-litre fuel tank (around 540 km range), and smooth V-twin at highway speeds. The stiff rear suspension (42 mm travel) is the main limiter on broken surfaces, and the single scooped seat makes it a strictly solo tourer - no pillion comfort.
QWhat are the service intervals and cost for Keeway V302C?▾
Keeway recommends service intervals of 5,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first. Authorised service charges are approximately Rs 2,500-4,000 per visit. Given the limited Keeway dealer network in India, it is advisable to confirm the nearest authorised service centre location before purchase.
QDoes Keeway V302C have ABS?▾
Yes, the Keeway V302C is equipped with dual-channel ABS as standard on its single variant, covering both the 300 mm front disc and the 240 mm rear disc. There is no non-ABS variant available in India.
QWhat is the top speed of Keeway V302C?▾
The Keeway V302C has a claimed top speed of approximately 155 km/h, enabled by its 298cc V-twin engine producing 29 bhp. Most owners comfortably cruise in the 80-120 km/h range for highway riding.
