5 new bikes to be launched in September 2016

The festive season has arrived, so has our temptation to buy new two-wheelers for the family. With lot of offers and easy access to auto loan, the sales of two-wheelers during the festive season always hits a new high. In this story, we bring you the list of five bikes that will be launched in India this month.

1: Ducati XDiavel

The new XDiavel has been specifically developed for markets that fancies cruisers a lot. And the United States tops that list. However, there’s a certain craze for cruisers in India too and that’s why you’ll see a lot of products in the segment. Ducati India knows this and that’s why it plans to launch the XDiavel this month. In fact, a couple of XDiavels have already reached Indian shores and the dealers are already taking the bookings.  

2: Ducati Hypermotard 939

You can book the new Hypermotard 939 by paying Rs 2 lakh. Ducati will be pricing this Italian bike at Rs 11.09 lakh (ex-showroom Mumbai) at the time of launch and it’s not a bad deal for this supermoto. It’ll be available in two paint schemes – Ducati red and star white silk. 

3: Ducati Hyperstrada 939

Just like the Hypermotard, the Hyperstrada 939 can be booked by paying Rs 2 lakh. However, this motorcycle is slightly expensive at Rs 12.19 lakh (ex-showroom Mumbai). The Hyperstrada gets its design and nature traits from Hypermotard and the Multistrada respectively. Just like other Ducatis, the Hyperstrada 939 is loaded with electronics to make the ride comfortable and safe. 

4: Hero New Achiever

The Achiever has always been a slow seller for Hero MotoCorp. It doesn’t offer a value for money proposition. But this might change when the new Achiever is launched this month. Hero has been very secretive about this product, however, we believe that it’ll be more than just cosmetic changes. We’re expecting the new Achiever to be more appealing, more fuel efficient and priced well too. 

5: Moto Guzzi V9 Roamer & Bobber

Piaggio India will launch the Moto Guzzi V9 Roamer and the Bobber this month for the Indian market. Priced at Rs 13.48 lakh (ex-showroom Pune), both the bikes will be sold as completely-built-up (CBU) units and will be available only through Motoplex showrooms.
