The retro style bike segment in the country is basically dominated by the Royal Enfield and it covers around 90% share in the Indian market. But now, the market will see a competitor in the form of the Jawa motorcycle from Mahindra.
Mahindra will introduce the Jawa bikes under the related brand names and not take the Mahindra badge. The Jawa 350 is established to introduce as the first Jawa offering in the country. Jawa 350 was introduced in the global markets in the year 2017. It obtains two engine choices that comprise a four-stroke, 400cc single cylinder engine, and a two-stroke 350cc twin cylinder engine. Although the two-stroke powertrain is banned in India, Mahindra can make the Jawa motorcycle to take Mojo’s 300 cc single cylinder engine delivering a peak power of 27 hp and a peak torque of 32 Nm. The engine comes mated to a six-speed gearbox. We expect that the bike must come in good and refined built quality with the likes of the Mojo.
