Bike makers make power statement
R. SURYAMURTHY
New Delhi, Feb. 3: The Rs 1-lakh car may be the next big thing on the Indian roads, but bike makers remain unfazed by its entry.
Global players such as Yamaha, KTM and Kawasaki plan to launch high-end models in the country and are confident that their offerings will be lapped up by bike aficionados.
Rajiv Bajaj, managing director of Bajaj Auto, said, “Those who go for these high-end bikes want power and performance. Those who are looking for fuel efficiency can go in for the low-end bikes.”
According to Murad Ali Baig, an auto expert, “High-end bikers are sporty and not Nano targets.” Nano is the Rs 1-lakh-car of the Tatas.
