Mahindra shifts focus to premium two-wheelers
While the Indian two-wheeler market thrives, Mahindra does not seem to be getting the better end of the conditions. While mass market has always been the way to go for huge profits, Mahindra has been unable to capitalise this market unlike its rivals.
While the Indian two-wheeler market thrives, Mahindra does not seem to be getting the better end of the conditions. While mass market has always been the way to go for huge profits, Mahindra has been unable to capitalise this market unlike its rivals.
While Hero, Honda, Bajaj and TVS fight for supremacy, Mahindra is still one of the niche manufacturers in this segment with approximately 1% of market share. The company has thus realised that a change in plan is due.
Mahindra currently sells just two motorcycle models; the Centuro and Mojo, and three scooters; Duro RZ, Rodeo Uzo and Gusto. According to SIAM data, Mahindra’s market share was 1.04% in the financial year 2014-15, with 1,65,364 units sold. This number fell down to 0.88% for the financial year 2015-16 with the company managing to sell just 1,44,355 units.
Looking at the trend, Mahindra made a new sales strategy which started with the launch of the Mojo in October 2015. The Mojo marked the start of a new direction for Mahindra, which aimed to uplift its brand image with the new release.
The Mojo was based on an all new platform which could form the base for their future endeavours. The Mojo is powered by an all new 295cc single-cylinder engine which outputs 28 HP of power and 30 Nm of torque. The bike has managed to shift 500 units till March 2016.
