The last week was filled with new two-wheeler launches, courtesy of Royal Enfield Motoverse taking place in Goa, besides Brixton entering India with five motorcycles.
Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350 launch
Royal Enfield launched the Goan Classic 350 in India at Rs. 2.35 lakh. It is based on the existing Classic 350 but rides on a different 19-16-inch cross-spoke wheel combination. The seat and handlebar are also different thereby offering a more laid-back seating position. While the engine is the same, a new exhaust setup offers a louder aural experience.
Four Brixton bikes launch
Austrian brand Brixton Motorcycles entered India with four motorcycles including the mid-size Crossfire 500 and Crossfire 500 XC that cost Rs. 4.74 lakh and Rs. 5.19 lakh, respectively. The company has also brought the Cromwell 1200 at Rs. 7.84 lakh and the Cromwell 1200 X at Rs. 9.10 lakh. All these bikes will arrive at dealerships in December.
VLF Tennis electric scooter launch
Besides Brixton, VLF made its India debut with the Tennis electric scooter. The Italian two-wheeler maker has priced the scooter at Rs 1.30 lakh. Powering the VLF Tennis is a 2.1kW hub motor linked to a 2.5kWh motor. The setup offers a 130km range. Meanwhile, the Tennis gets electronic aids including three ride modes and a TFT with smartphone connectivity. Its hardware includes 12-inch wheels, disc brakes at both ends, and telescopic front forks.
New TVS Apache RTR 160 4V launch
TVS launched the updated Apache RTR 160 4V in India at 1.40 lakh. The bike has been updated with a new colour scheme and has revised hardware. With the new grey and red paint scheme, as well as the golden-coloured front forks, the bike’s overall aesthetics have been revised. Apart from the colour scheme, the only change that it has received is the addition of the USD front forks.
Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R price drop
The ex-showroom price of the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R has been reduced by Rs. 1.14 lakh and it costs
Rs. 17.34 lakh now. The 2025 ZX-10R was launched in India in September this year at Rs. 17.13 lakh. However, the company soon went on to increase the price of the bike and pegged it at Rs. 18.50 lakh. This meant it sat close to the standard version of the BMW S 1000 RR thereby taking away from the value-for-money quotient that the 10R is popular for. Taking this into consideration, the Japanese brand has slashed the price of the supersport by Rs. 1.14 lakh.
