Indian Motorcycle expects smoother ride in India in 2018

After riding through a tough 2017, US niche bikemaker Indian Motorcycle expects a smoother ride in India next year on the back of new products and improved market environment. A wholly-owned division of Polaris Industries, it is present in the 1,200 cc and above superbike segment in India and sells nine models, including the newly launched Scout Bobber with price starting at ~12.99 lakh (exshowroom). “In 2018 we are looking at 40-50 per cent growth over 2016. It'll be much higher compared to 2017, almost 100 per cent...,” Polaris India Country Head and Managing Director Pankaj Dubey said.
