OEM Wise Performance
The 150–200cc segment’s OEM-wise performance highlights a clear shift towards sporty commuters, with multiple brands recording strong double-digit growth. TVS continues to lead with Apache, but Bajaj has closed the gap significantly, posting a robust 45%+ YoY growth driven by Pulsar’s strong demand.
Honda remains a steady volume player with Unicorn and newer products like SP160 contributing to nearly 30% growth. Yamaha has emerged as one of the strongest gainers, with its combined portfolio growing close to 40%, led by FZ and supported by R15 and MT-15.
Hero’s performance is driven primarily by Xpulse, which continues to gain traction, while KTM maintains strong niche growth in the premium end. On the other hand, Suzuki and Kawasaki have seen declines, indicating weakening traction in this segment. Overall, the growth trend suggests increasing consumer preference towards performance-oriented, feature-rich motorcycles over traditional commuter offerings.
