      Royal Enfield Sales Breakup Jul 2022 – Classic, Meteor, Bullet, Himalayan

      by

      Classic 350 still top the charts as it is the highest-selling Royal Enfield motorcycle by quite a large marginImage – Auto Moto ShowIf there is a company that has a monopoly in retro and classic motorcycles, it has to be Royal Enfield. With motorcycles like Classic 350 in their arsenal, Royal Enfield has the potential to stay at the top of retro and classic bike charts for a long time. For reference, Classic 350 alone sells more than most of its rivals combined. But how does the company fare in domestic sales and exports? Let’s take a closer look.Royal Enfield Sales Breakup Jul 2022 – DomesticAt the top of the list, we have Classic 350 which registered 37.5% growth YoY with 23,223 units sold in July 2022 over 16,890 units in July 2021 with a difference of 6,333 units. But it registered a dip of 8.66% MoM as it had sold 25,425 units in June 2022. This might be due to the fact that competitors like Yezdi are offering modernity like a 6-speed gearbox, LED headlights, digital instrument cluster and more. Currently, Classic 350 accounts for half of Royal Enfield’s domestic sales.Meteor 350 is next with 8,088 units sold in July 2022 and registers a 7.85% dip YoY and 6.44% MoM and accounts for just 16.15% of the company’s market share. Surprisingly, the last-gen Bullet 350 still sells 6,530 units in July 2022. It registered an 8.45% dip in sales YoY and 10.81% growth MoM. Not bad as it enjoys 11.01% of the company’s sales.Electra 350 clocked 3,853 units in July 2022 with 30.65% YoY growth and a dip of 11.69% MoM. Himalayan sold 3,441 units in July 2022 with 26.04% YoY growth as it only sold 2,730 units in July 2021. But it registered a 23.77% decline MoM. 650 twins sold a healthy 1,394 units in July 2022 with 71.89% growth YoY with a difference of 583 units. But sales take a hit of only 2.18% MoM.Royal Enfield Domestic Sales July 2022Royal Enfield Exports Breakup Jul 2022When it comes to exports, Meteor 350 ships the highest with 2,844 units shipped in July 2022 registering 63.73% YoY growth with 1,737 units sold in July 2021. But it registers an 18.44% drop MoM. Meteor 350 is company’s highest-shipping model with a 31.51% share and also is Britain’s highest-selling model too.Himalayan takes second spot with 2,348 units sold in July 2022 registering 76.67% YoY growth and 24.23% MoM de-growth and enjoys a 26.01% share. 650 Twins are getting more and more popular worldwide owing to their immense value. It is reflected in numbers too. It shipped 2,083 units in July 2022 registering 27.41% growth YoY and 3.67% growth MoM and enjoyed a 22.56% share.Next in line is Classic 350 which registered a staggering 2,666.15% growth YoY in July 2022 with 1,798 units over July 2021 with just 65 units. But sees a 30.63% de-growth MoM and accounts for 19.92% of Royal Enfield’s exports currently.Royal Enfield Exports July 2022Even though Royal Enfield is doing better than last year in both domestic and exports, sales are slowly declining MoM in both exports and domestic. Domestically, the company sold 46,529 units in July 2022 with 7,239 units increment over July 2021’s 39,390 units while registering 18.42% growth YoY. But it sold 50,265 units in June 2022 and hence we see a 7.43% drop in sales MoM.Same goes with exports. Royal Enfield shipped 9,026 units in July 2022 registering a 90.10% growth over 4,748 units in July 2021. But last month, it exported 11,142 units and hence, we see an 18.99% drop in sales MoM. More

      KTM may not be doing very well domestically, but when it comes to exports, reported good YoY and MoM sales growthKTM India SalesKTM has been on the verge of rejigging its product lineup in India. In that regard, we have seen the launch of 2022 versions of most of their lineup. Speaking about KTM’s Indian lineup, the Austrian brand has three variations in its body style. They are RC, a sports machine, Duke, which is a street machine and lastly, we have Adventure, which is a, well, adventure machine.All three body styles get a different set of engines too, ranging from 125cc to 373cc. KTM has registered a mixed bag of sales figures with both dips and growth in sales. But that is likely to change soon when 2023 Duke range is launched in India which is in testing phase right now.KTM Sales – Domestic & ExportsWhen we take domestic sales into account, we see a sharp dip in sales YoY. KTM 200 series (Duke + RC) models sold 1,607 units in July 2022 while they sold 2,019 units in July 2021 with a 20.41% drop in sales YoY.

When it comes to KTM 125 series (Duke + RC) models, with just 14 units sold in July 2022, they have been a hard sell domestically and hence are likely to not be updated to MY2022 in India.KTM Sales & Exports July 2022 – DomesticBut 1,010 units of KTM 125 range models have been shipped in July 2022 with 33.25% YoY growth and a 10.46% drop in sales MoM as it shipped 1,128 units in June 2022.

But 390 (ADV + Duke + RC) is the most shipped at 48.62% share of all KTM bikes followed by 200 with 24.20%, 250 with 13.89% and lastly, we have 125 with just 13.29% share.KTM Sales & Exports July 2022 – ExportsTotal SalesWhen we take into account the total sales of all KTM models, things get a little interesting.

In terms of equipment list and hardware, the bike is largely the same as the standard model.Shine Celebration Edition has been launched at a starting price of Rs 78,878 (ex-showroom, New Delhi). That’s a premium of Rs 1,500 in comparison to standard Shine drum variant that is priced at Rs 77,378.With Shine Celebration Edition, Honda will be looking to leverage positive consumer sentiments generally seen during festive season.

The special edition bike also gets a new golden theme. While the graphics have the same layout, they are done in a striking golden shade.New Honda Shine Celebration EditionThe golden theme extends to other components such as the golden wingmark emblem, Shine logo on tail section and celebration edition logo on the tank top. The headlamp cowl and side panels also get golden garnish.Among the two new colour options, the golden theme stands out with the Matte Sangria Red Metallic. The overall look and feel is more agreeable on this one, as compared to Matte Steel Black Metallic colour option. This is especially true, taking into account the brown colour seat.If the seat had the standard black shade, the Matte Steel Black Metallic colour option would have worked better with the golden theme. Users looking for a sprightly colour option are most likely to go with the Matte Sangria Red Metallic shade.New Honda Shine Celebration EditionAnother update is matte axis grey metallic muffler cover, which complements the golden theme of Shine Celebration Edition.

      RE Bobber 650, Himalayan 450 Spied Together – Cruising At 100+ Kmph

      by

      New products like Bobber 650 and Himalayan 450 will help Royal Enfield maintain its dominance in middleweight motorcycle segmentRoyal Enfield Bobber 650 and Himalayan 450 spied togetherEven with more than 85% market share in middleweight segment, Royal Enfield doesn’t seem to be infected by a complacency bug. On the contrary, the Chennai-based manufacturer is working aggressively by launching new products at regular intervals. This approach has become all the more necessary with availability of new rival products such as those launched by the likes of Honda, Jawa, Yezdi and TVS. In the future, Royal Enfield is likely to face new challengers from Hero MotoCorp and Bajaj as well.Over the next five years, Royal Enfield will be launching an average of one new product every quarter. Things seem to be going as per plans so far, as Scram 411 and Hunter 350 have already been launched this year. Other upcoming Royal Enfield bikes include Himalayan 450 and Bobber 650, which were recently spotted on road test by happinessperkm.Himalayan 450 featuresHimalayan 450 has undergone some major transformations, helping achieve a design that’s a lot more pleasing to the eyes. As compared to the sharp profile used for Himalayan 411, new Himalayan has a more rounded appearance. While Himalayan 411 is hard to miss on the streets, new Himalayan 450 has a more agreeable design that can easily blend in the crowded streets.Another key change can be seen in the design of racks, which also get a rounded appearance. Rear racks seem to be missing on the test mule, which indicates that some of these components could be made optional. They could be offered as an accessory via the company’s MIY personalization platform. It makes sense, as not everyone may be planning long-distance touring on Himalayan 450.[embedded content][embedded content]Other changes that are evident include new fuel tank design, single-piece saddle, compact exhaust and longer front beak. Retro bits are largely the same such as round headlamp and rear view mirrors and wire-spoke wheels. Most significant upgrade will be the new 450cc motor, which is likely to generate around 40 bhp of max power and 45 Nm of peak torque.Bobber 650 featuresFor wide open roads, Royal Enfield Bobber 650 seems like the perfect cruising machine. Its large size exudes powerful vibes and the bulk keeps it firmly planted on the tarmac. Even when cruising at high speeds, absolutely no turbulence or vibrations are noticeable. Some key features of Bobber 650 include round headlamp and rear view mirrors, classic tear-drop shaped fuel tank, single-piece seat, dual chrome exhaust, broad rear mudguard and circular tail lamp and turn signals.Bobber 650 is equipped with dual instrument dials, something similar to that of Meteor 350. The smaller unit on the right is likely to be Tripper navigation screen. The bike has a comfortable riding stance with pulled back handlebar and forward-set footpegs. USD forks at front will make the rides a lot safer. While the test mule does not have a visor, it could be offered as an accessory.Powering Bobber 650 will be the 648cc parallel twin motor that makes 47.5 PS and 52 Nm. It is mated to a constant mesh 6-speed transmission. It is possible that some engine retuning may be done in line with Bobber 650’s cruising needs. The bike is expected to be launched at a price of around Rs 3 lakh to Rs 3.5 lakh. More

      New Bajaj CT125X Launch Price Rs 71k – Rs 5k More Than CT110X

      by

      Although Bajaj has 125cc Pulsar, a dedicated 125cc commuter will have better capabilities against rivals like Hero Super Splendor and Honda CB ShineImage – Auto Travel TechEarlier, Bajaj used to have 125cc commuters such as Discover 125 and XCD125. However, these were discontinued due to stricter emission norms. Bajaj does sell Discover in international markets, but it’s not available here. While Bajaj has done well to trim its portfolio, somehow the 125cc commuter segment was given a miss.With 125cc commuter bikes registering strong growth, Bajaj is looking to make a re-entry into this space. The company’s newest commuter is CT125X, which has now been launched. It has also started arriving at dealerships.While it stays focused on utility, Bajaj CT125X also packs in some sporty, premium features. An optimal blend of utility and aesthetics ensures a unique profile and allows improved competencies against rivals.Bajaj CT125X featuresCore design philosophy for CT125X is quite the same as used for CT 110X. Several of the features are common across both bikes. It includes the round headlamp, metal guards on the headlamp and fork gaiters for a sportier look and feel, V-shaped DRL, compact visor, rubber tank pads for extra comfort, large belly pan for engine protection and strong side crash guard with rubber grips.New Bajaj CT125X LaunchIn terms of utility, the bike has a dedicated rack at the rear. The flat seat design seems comfy and could also double up as a platform to carry some extra load. Another utility comes in the form of a USB charging port, which is located in the cockpit area. A cover has been provided for the USB port, which should keep it safe from dust, water and humidity.The bike has been equipped with a conventional dual dial analogue instrument console. It has a halogen headlamp, turn signals and tail lamp. Suspension system comprises standard telescopic forks at front and dual rear shock absorbers. While drum brakes will be standard, there could be variants with front disc and rear drum combo.Bajaj CT125X performanceIn domestic market, Bajaj currently has only Pulsar in 125cc segment. Its commuter range has Platina 100cc and 110cc and CT110X. Engine used for Bajaj CT125X is the same as that of Pulsar 125 and Pulsar NS125. The 124.4cc, twin spark motor generates 11.8 PS of max power at 8,500 rpm and 10.8 Nm of peak torque at 6,500 rpm. It is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.Like earlier commuters from Bajaj, CT125X is among the most affordable in its segment. The bike seems to have potential and could emerge as a formidable rival in this space. It is priced from Rs 71,354, ex-sh Delhi. This is about Rs 5k more than its 110cc sibling CT110X.  It will be interesting to see how much of an impact CT125X has in this space, in relation to other 125cc commuters such as Honda Shine, Hero Glamour, Hero Super Splendor and Honda SP 125.

      Honda Price Hike Aug 2022 – Activa, Dio, CB200X, Unicorn, CB350

      by

      Honda India has hiked the prices for all of its models offered in India and CB200X got the most hike at Rs. 17,340Image – Motovin77Honda India already has a reputation for being overpriced and with the new price hike, that reputation is now amplified. We get that manufacturers have to pass on some of the incurred costs to customers. We say this because production costs and input costs have been on the rise and price hikes are evident.But of all manufacturers, when Honda does it, it feels a little overwhelming because Honda products are generally overpriced, to begin with. It seems that Honda could have absorbed the rising input costs a little more. We say this because CB200X that is not a good-seeling bike, got a ridiculous price hike of Rs. 17,340. Let’s take a look.Honda Price Hike August 2022Starting with CB200X which got a ridiculous and atrocious Rs. 17,340 at 13.32% price hike, we don’t understand why Honda did this. Because CB200X is a wannabe ADV that is just a slight extension of Hornet 2.0 with a 2V head. For around Rs. 22,000 less one can buy an XPulse 200 2V and for Rs. 11,000 less, one can buy XPulse 200 4V which are proper off-roaders that punch way above their displacements.Next highest price hike is CB350 DLX at Rs. 11,679 and CB350 at Rs. 10,679 standing at 6.26% and 5.55% increment. Next comes X-Blade, Unicorn 160 and Hornet 2.0. They get around Rs. 7,000 to 8,000 hike ranging from 5.52% on Hornet 2.0 and going till 8.32% increment on the high-capacity commuter Unicorn 160.Honda Scooters Price Hike Aug 2022Grazia premium 125cc scooter gets Rs. 6,396 price increment for both drum brake and as well as disc brake variants. Grazia 125’s price hike amounts to 7.79% to 8.55% increment than prices in July 2022. After Grazia, Dio seems to be next with Rs. 5,588 for Dio STD and Rs. 5,690 for Dio Deluxe accounting for around an 8.75% increment.  Even though Activa 6G gets the exact same powertrain, components, electricals and most things, it only gets hike of Rs. 968 for STD and Rs. 1,223 for Deluxe variants. This accounts for around 1.5% increment only while Dio incurred 8.75%. Is this because Activa is extremely popular and hiking its price too much will create a dent in sales? Maybe.Least Hike & New PricingComing to the bottom end of the price hike spectrum, we have the Activa 125 series that got Rs. 1,036 to Rs. 1,127 and accounts for 1.26% to 1.50% increment.
