2. Triumph’s Tactical Move: The 350cc Price War
In a move that’s currently trending on Google Discover, Triumph India is reportedly launching a slightly downsized 350cc range on April 14.
The Leak: By reducing the engine capacity from 400cc to 350cc, Triumph aims to lower the starting price by nearly ₹45,000. This puts a premium Triumph brand directly in the price territory of the Classic 350 and Honda CB350.
3. TVS Jupiter CNG: The Mileage King Drops on April 15
For the daily commuters, TVS is set to launch the Jupiter CNG.
- The Tech: Similar to Bajaj’s Victoris, the CNG tanks are integrated into the chassis to save boot space.
