Discounts And Offers On Two-Wheelers In December 2018

The end of the year is always a good time to go automobile shopping, as dealers roll out discounts and offers to clear out existing stock which will be a year old in the model year when the new year kicks in. Traditionally, there have always been offers and discounts on two-wheelers, ranging from cash discounts, free insurance and accessories thrown in with every purchase. This year though, despite a not so exciting festive season in terms of sales, two-wheeler dealerships don't seem to be very bullish on clearing out stock, or on a positive buyer sentiment in the market. Although some dealers are rolling out a few offers, and certain festive season offers have been extended till the end of the year, there are not too many exciting discounts, which will mean that sales may not be so exciting after all, apart from a few brands and models.

The Hero Splendor Plus is still one of the largest selling motorcycles. Hero dealers are offering attractive exchange offers.

Hero MotoCorp

The largest two-wheeler manufacturer by volume has officially not announced any discounts on any models. Hero will be looking to rake in some sales interest in its new scooter, the Hero Destini 125, as well as the new 200 cc motorcycle, the Hero Xtreme 200R. The company has not announced any special offers on any products, but individual Hero dealerships are rolling out some offers, although these may differ from dealer to dealer. The best offers are in buying a Hero two-wheeler through PayTM which has offered benefits of up to Rs. 5,000, including cash payback and payment vouchers. On purchasing a Hero two-wheeler by cash, some dealers are rolling out cash discounts of up to Rs. 1,000, and a few dealers we spoke to said, that more discounts can be possible after discussion across the table. So, if you're looking to buy any Hero two-wheeler, the best bet would be to visit more than one dealership and then have a conversation on what is possible. Hero dealerships are also offering attractive exchange offers on your old motorcycle or two-wheeler with special schemes for government servants.

The Honda CB Shine is the largest selling 125 cc motorcycle in India

Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India (HMSI)

Hero's former partner Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India is not offering any year-end discounts or offers officially. Honda dealerships though, are saying that if you book a Honda two-wheeler through PayTM, you are eligible for benefits up to Rs. 4,000. And certain Honda dealerships are throwing in a tankful of fuel or a free helmet along with a new Honda two-wheeler. As always, these offers may differ from dealer to dealer, so if you're shopping for a two-wheeler, the best thing to do would be to speak to more than one dealership, and also figure out the best possible offer from one dealer.

Bajaj Auto has also not rolled out any year-end specific discounts and several Bajaj dealerships are continuing with the 5-on-5 offer announced by the company a couple of months ago. This offer includes a 5-year warranty, 5 free services and a 5-year on-damage insurance free. But again, these offers vary from dealership to dealership and from model to model. On the Bajaj Pulsar 150, some dealers are offering free 5-year warranty, 5 free services and on-damage insurance free for one year. On the Bajaj Platina and Bajaj Dominar, the 5-on-5 offer, including five year on-damage insurance free is being offered.

Zongshen Cyclone RX6 Based On Norton 650 Nearing Completion

Image
While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
