We have seen the 200cc-250cc segment motorcycle gets the maximum attention in Country, and when it comes with a real V Twin engine with an ultimate cruiser look with an affordable price, you can easily say it’s a dream comes true for Indian motorcycle fans. The Korean motorcycle company, who already had launched two models(Hyosung GT650N/Rs. 5,10,000 and Hyosung ST7/Rs. 6,50,000) here in India, has planned to launched the new Hyosung GV250 and Hyosung GV125 in the mid-2012, and expected Price will be approx 2.5 Lakh for Hyosung GV250, source confirmed.
The company has had fairly good success in the middleweight motorcycle space with its two sporty 650cc offerings, the GT650R and the GT650N. Also on the cards is their 250cc cruiser machine – the GV250, that will offer give a much needed shot in the arm to the Indian affordable cruiser motorcycle segment. Pricing for these models is expected to be highly competitive.
Will this make a change into Indian motorcycle market?
- Keep aside Harley Davidsons since they are expencive for aam janta, everyone can’t afford them.
- Royal Enfield has the unbeatable reputation and more crazy fans, seems which will remain forever in every part in the world. But, still there are fans, kind of upset with their same models, why don’t they bring some new varieties? they keep questioning, and you can’t totally blame them, Royal Enfiled still manufactures the models were designed since 1948, they have upgraded the technology, not much into look.
- The most important changes, according to few custom builders, may cause hell trouble for them, Mostly custom bikes are built from the donor Royal Enfield bike, which costs approx Lakh if you start your project with an Electra and the custom charge are not less than 80K – 2 Lakh or more. Will the launch of this 2.5Lakh V Twin cruiser interfere the custom motorcycle market?
- There are much difference into look, style and status between the Bajaj’s 220cc Avenger and this new Hyosung GV250, so this won’t be a fare compare even if they belong into almost same power sgment.
Though generacally there are huge difference between a company manufactured bike (even if it’s a cruiser) and a custom made bobber/chopper, but money matters. And someone who only wants a cruiser without knowing much of Motorcycle genre , the new launch may attracts them.
