Honda to showcase its first entry level motorcycle in Auto Expo

Auto Expo in January 2010 will be a great platform for the auto companies. A number of new cars and two wheelers will be displayed at the show. In a recent development, Honda has confirmed that it will display its first entry level motorcycle at the Auto Expo 2010 in Delhi. However, there is no official comment so far about the price and features. It is expected that the bike will be priced between Rs 40,000 and Rs 45,000. The bike would be having a sporty look and overall looks will be altogether different. Shinji Aoyama, HMSI president and CEO told reporters that the company is in the process of developing a entry-level bike. Honda wanted to grab the share from this entry level segment by aggressive prices and innovative product. Shinji Aoyama has also said the company is working on products to minimise cannibalisation with Hero Honda’ 100cc range. “We are not looking at high volumes, but want to satisfy customers looking for quality and products, and avoiding any direct competition with Hero Honda,” he said.
