US based vehicle manufacturer, Polaris is already selling its off-roading vehicles in India, and now the American marquee is all set to launch its motorcycle brands- Victory and Indian in India. Mr. Pankaj Dubey, Managing Director, Polaris India shared their plans to launch these bikes in India with us. Mr. Dubey said, “There is a list of launches that are in the pipeline, however, a lot of brainstorming and planning needs to be done to give them some shape. Currently, as per announcement made, Indian Chief is expected to get launched in near future. ”
When we asked about Victory, Mr. Dubey said, “ Indian Motorcycles is all set to launch its new motorcycle, the Indian Chief, which will be unveiled to the public in the first week of August this year at the famous Sturgis motorcycle festival. The Indian Chief will be featuring the new 1811cc engine, expected to produce 100 PS of power with over 150 Nm of torque. The decision to bring Indian to India has been taken.
It is early days yet but it will happen. Indian Motorcycles will come to India within a year from now is what we know. As far as Victory is concerned, it will also come, we have always maintained that, but first Indian will come and then Victory will follow. We will share the plan as and when it decided. ” So we are eagerly waiting to see the launch of these two iconic brands in India.
Stay tuned for more updates.
