Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 launch
The Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450 was launched at Rs 2.39 lakh as the company’s new street naked motorcycle. While it is based on the Himalayan 450 in terms of engine and main frame, there are a lot of major differences which lend the Guerrilla a distinctive personality of its own. It will mainly compete against the Triumph Speed 400 and Harley-Davidson X440 in the Indian market.

2024 Suzuki Avenis 125 launch
Suzuki launched the 2024 Avenis 125 in India with a price tag of Rs. 92,000. The company introduced four new colour options for the scooter including yellow, white, red, and black. Besides the base colour, what differentiates these paint schemes from the previous model is the funky graphics on the side panels and front apron. With this visual makeover, Suzuki expects to attract more GenZ riders and increase footfall in its showrooms.

Hero Xpulse 210 spied
A test mule of what appears to be a more powerful Xpulse was spied testing ahead of its launch in the country. It is the upcoming Hero Xpulse 210, and will likely be powered by a Karizma XMR-sourced 210cc, liquid-cooled motor. The Xpulse 200 has been a successful ADV for Hero MotoCorp, but adventure-seekers have been demanding a more powerful adventure bike. The Xpulse 210 should mitigate that as the 210cc engine makes 25.15bhp and 20.4Nm of peak torque on the Karizma XMR.
