The TVS Apache series secured the fifth position with 51,191 units as the arrival of the RTX 300 adventure offering and the enduring popularity of the 160 cc and 200 cc RTRs have proven to be a game changer for the brand in recent years while the utilitarian TVS XL moped followed in the sixth position with 48,607 units.
The TVS Raider stood seventh with 36,069 units indicating the increasing demand for youthful and feature-rich entry-level machines. Honda’s CB Unicorn 160 claimed eighth place with 35,710 units as it maintained good demand among riders wanting a refined and simple commuter with slightly more power.
In ninth position, the Classic 350 from Royal Enfield clocked 34,981 units – proving that retro-styled premium motorcycles continue to enjoy strong popularity on the back of price reductions that came into effect late last year due to GST 2.0 norms. Rounding out the top ten was the Bajaj Platina with 33,520 units.
