Team-BHP - September 2023: Indian Motorcycle & Scooter Sales Figures & Analysis

- - September 2023: Indian Motorcycle & Scooter Sales Figures & Analysis (https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/motorbikes/272803-september-2023-indian-motorcycle-scooter-sales-figures-analysis.html)

NOTES:

1: Thanks to the team at Auto Punditz for sharing these sales numbers with us!

2: Only bikes that sell 500+ units (and thus, the relevant ones) have been included in the gainers & losers chart.

3. These manufacturer-reported sales numbers are factory dispatches to dealerships. They are NOT retail sales figures to end customers.

EDIT: I stand corrected. Their data isn't available.

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but Jawa or Yezdi has yet to ever appear here. You'd think they'd bother with something different by now.

Sir, the sales data for Mahindra Motorcycles is not available in Autopunditz

Nice to see Honda doing so well in 150cc-200cc segment. Out of these 3852 Hornet 2.0s sold in September, mine was also one among them:D. It is an awesome bike and now priced quite well, I feel.

Also, it's so heartening to see Unicorn still setting sales charts on fire literally after two decades post its launch. SP160 with 7000+ numbers, is also off to a very good start.

Only thing missing in Honda's numbers are sport bikes. They should launch new gen CBR150R ASAP along with CBR250R/300R. CRF300L should also be launched to compete with KTM 250 Adventure.

HMSI, are you listening:Cheering:

Some observation on Scooters

Vida has picked up sales from June {starting a jump to 2K}
Piaggio sales seems consistent with all their 3 models {SR125/160 & Vespa}
Pep+ seems to be discontinued with 0 sales since July
TVS has become #2 in scooters at ~25% of the market {thanks to Jupiter} pushing Suzuki to 15%, Hero at 6% & Yamaha at 4% {obviously Honda is at 45%}
Interestingly Ather holds 2% of scooter share {450X sells more than Fascino}
Can't help recalling Chetak which has managed half a lakh unit in 9 months {wondering how much they could've held if they hadn't quit scooter market in early 2000s}

Congrats dude, love to see your review on the bike, there is hardly any proper review of the Hornet 2.0 and CB200X on Team Bhp.

The 350+cc is the 'compact SUV/C2' equivalent of India's bike market and things will heat up with the presence of X440 and Triumph 400 twins. Will be interesting to see if these bikes will expand the 350cc market or eat into RE's numbers.

Quick question - do the Honda H'ness 350 numbers include the CB350RS's numbers as well?

Tvs Raider stands out for me. It's even outselling all Apache models combined. Really a well thought out product unlike the Ronin

The Splendor continues to amaze. It still rules the roost almost three decades since launch. Looks like it will hold the position for the near future.

Thanks brother:thumbs up. It's an awesome bike to say the least. Engine is bloody smooth and slipper clutch makes riding effortless. Pick-up is super too. Have done only 500kms as I already have Unicorn for everyday commuting(100kms per day) and CBR250R for my weekend sports riding. Will update once I log more miles. Till then watch this space...:D
