Two-Wheeler Sales November 2018: Manufacturers Register Positive Growth

The overall sentiment of the market hasn't been great during the festive season, but still two-wheeler manufacturers have registered positive growth in sales for the month of November 2018. While Hero saw a very marginal percentage rise of 0.87 per cent, Bajaj saw a growth of 45 per cent in its domestic sales. TVS posted a healthy growth of 27 per cent for overall two-wheelers in November 2018 and Suzuki Motorcycle India had a month on month growth of 24 per cent last month. Here are the sales numbers in greater detail.

Hero MotoCorp

India's largest two-wheeler maker by volumes, Hero MotoCorp registered a sale of 6,10,252 units in November 2018. The company's sales grew marginally in the post festive period as compared to the 605,270 units sold in November 2017. Hero's growth in volumes comes despite an overall drop in numbers across the auto industry owing to the increase in insurance costs before the festive season and the overall low-key market sentiment. Hero's strong sellers continue to remain entry-level commuter motorcycles, while the company has also seen impressive numbers from its scooter range.

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.
