Looks like the crackling excitement continued even after Diwali this week as we witnessed several important developments in the two-wheeler industry. If you weren’t able to keep up with the news due to the festivities, don’t worry - we have got you covered with this weekend wrap-up.

Honda 

Honda surprised us all by teasing and then launching their newest 350cc motorcycle called the Honda CB350 which will be a rival to the Royal Enfield Bullet 350. The new motorcycle is in fact the most affordable 350cc Honda bike in India.

Ather

While Ather is known for all things sporty in the electric scooter space, things are soon going to change as the EV maker is all set to appeal to a wider audience with its upcoming electric scooter that was spied recently. This family-oriented Ather e-scooter seems to have the TVS iQube in its crosshairs. Image Source.

Ather’s CEO Tarun Mehta also confirmed that transparent panels will be making a comeback, possibly in a new variant of the 450X. Check out our story to know more.

Bajaj

Bajaj has been working on a CNG motorcycle for a while and filed patents for its design a few months ago. We recently saw a test bike that we believe could very well be the upcoming Bajaj CNG bike. Here’s why we think so. 

Royal Enfield 

Royal Enfield has introduced a new feature on their app, exclusively for the Super Meteor 650 known as the ‘Wingman’. This feature brings a lot of new information that can be accessed by the rider such as trip summary along with a few other features like vehicle alerts, live tracking and last parked location.

Italjet Dragster 559 Twin

Scooters are usually associated with commuting, prioritising practicality over outright performance. However, Italjet, a mad Italian scooter maker throws these preconceived notions out the window and has come out with the incredible Dragster 559 Twin, that defies all expectations. In fact, this scooter is more powerful than even the Royal Enfield Continental GT 650! Drool over the scooter in our gallery.
