In case you aren’t about these launches yet, here’s a quick lowdown on the two-wheelers that entered the Indian market in July 2023. 

Harley-Davidson X440

Harley-Davidson took the Indian biking fraternity by storm by launching its smallest offering, the X440, with an incredible price tag. The motorcycle starts from Rs 2.29 lakh for the base variant which is extremely competitive. It is powered by a 440cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled mill that produces 27bhp and 38Nm.

Just two days after the Harley X440’s launch, Bajaj and Triumph dropped their bomb in the form of the Speed 400. Although the Speed 400 is better than the X440 on the performance and component front, its introductory price stood at an amazing Rs 2.23 lakh. In fact, over 10,000 units of the Speed 400 have already been booked and now it costs Rs 2.33 lakh. 

Honda Dio 125

Honda expanded its scooter portfolio by launching the new Dio 125 in India.

Moreover, the Dio 125’s top-end Smart variant gets a lot of modern, convenience-oriented features.
