Two-wheelers That Made Their Debut In India In May 2023
From low-speed EVs to premium bikes, we saw it all
Raising the temperature this month wasn’t just the season, but also these ten motorcycles that made their debut in India. Here’s all the two-wheelers that were launched last month:
Ducati Monster SP
The Italian streetfighter with some serious hardware changes has made its debut in India. We are talking Ohlins adjustable suspension, Breambo Stylema brakes, Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres and a Termignoni exhaust. And yes, all that has made the Ducati Monster SP almost as expensive as the Suzuki Hayabusa.
Jawa & Yezdi Bikes
Classic Legends-owned Yezdi and Jawa have updated their entire lineup to meet the BS6.2 norms. But with that, the companies have now also added new paint schemes as well as new features.
Bajaj Avenger 220 Street
The Indian two-wheeler manufacturer silently reintroduced the Avenger 220 Street in India, and interestingly, priced it exactly the same as the Avenger 220 Cruise.
Hero XPulse 200 4V
The most affordable ADV in India got another update this month, making it all the more tempting. And with the introduction of the Pro variant, it also became the most affordable bike in our market to flaunt fully-adjustable suspension.
2023 KTM 390 Adventure
KTM has been going guns blazing with 390 Adventure in India. After the launch of the low-seat variant and the affordable X variant, the company has now introduced the top-of-the-line variant with wire-spoke rims and adjustable suspension.
Updated Simple One
Almost two years after Simple Energy’s e-scooter made its first public appearance in India, the company has finally launched the product with a handful of changes.
Bajaj Pulsar NS twins
Just a couple of months after Bajaj updated its NS twins, the company has given these bikes fresh paint schemes.
Hero Xtreme 160R
Hero MotoCorp too gave the Xtreme 160R a bunch of new paint schemes, making the 160cc naked all the more appealing.
Updated Vespas
Piaggio India updated its entire lineup of Vespa scooters to comply with the latest BS6.2 norms. With this update, these scooters have become dearer too.
Yulu Wynn
Yulu Wynn is the first electric scooter to spawn from the Bajaj-Yulu partnership. It is a low-speed e-scooter that is definitely going to be trending with the young crowd.
User Reviews
I’ve been using this bike for the last 3 years, and overall, I’m very happy with it. It’s a great choice for both city rides and off-roading. The mileage and maintenance costs are good, and the suspension is excellent for potholes and rough Indian roads. The main drawbacks are engine heating during hilly rides and some fatigue on rides over 200 km in a day. Overall, a comfortable, reliable, and capable off-road bike. I haven’t faced any major issues in 3 years. I'll rate it 5/5.Read More
Good handling and medium breaking, medium performance for short time city and highway riding, good sharp stylish looking naked bike, good road presence, low service charge with medium mileage 30 to 40 kmpl. Long ride comfort is not good after 100km. Wrist pain and shoulder pain, good handling bike. It's give you confidence to flicker very easily. Front break is good stopping power but too much abs kicking problem, rear brake is not good, no stopping power. Top speed after 2nd service 124 highest, mileage not that good 40 km after simple riding. If you ride aggressively, mileage can drop upto 30-25 kmpl. Can recommend this bike to the youngsters who go to college and those who want to explore many places on bike. Short time riding and some time aggressive riding and those who want naked sports bike in low cc and low service charge bike, this is good for them.Read More
Main Yulu Wynn last month kharidi hai aur sach mein bahut khush hoon. Pehle toh look bahut cute aur premium hai, specially pastel colours. Riding experience bohot smooth hai, bilkul jerk nahi lagta. City mein daily 30-40 km chalata hoon (office + market) aur ek charge mein aaram se 70-75 km nikal jaati hai real world mein. Acceleration bhi kaafi quick hai, traffic mein nikalna easy ho jaata hai. Suspension soft hai toh speed breakers pe bhi shock nahi lagta. Brakes combi-braking wale hain, safe feel hote hain. Boot space mein full-face helmet + thodi shopping bhi aa jaati hai. Charging time 5-6 ghante lagte hain normal 15A socket se, raat mein laga do subah full ready. Ab tak koi problem nahi aayi, build quality solid lagti hai. Service center wale bhi helpful hain. ₹55-60k mein itni loaded EV scooter milna badi baat hai. Petrol scooter se har mahine 1500-2000 bachta hai. Total paisa vasool aur tension-free ride. Jo bhi budget EV soch rahe hain, Yulu Wynn blindly le sakte hain. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Read More
