Top 20 Upcoming Two Wheelers include everything right from scooters, commuters to superbikes and middleweight performance motorcycles Two-wheeler market may not be flourishing the way it is supposed to do, but that does not stop manufacturers from making vehicles and launching them in the Indian market or export them wherever the demand exists. The rural market demand for two-wheelers was lower last quarter, but it seems to be picking up as the monsoons are on their way and it is expected to erode away the previous two years of drought nationwide. We list down the Top 20 Upcoming Two Wheelers which include scooters and motorcycles that come in different shapes, size and value, which you may think is ideal as your next purchase and something that you have been waiting for. Aprilia RS150 and Tuono 150 The motorcycles that will be the biggest highlight in the Indian market in the year 2019. The R15 and CBR 150R rivals have taken the market by storm already as they were showcased at the Auto Expo 2018. The motor make 18 BHP and 14 Nm of torque from its high revving engine which is liquid-cooled 4-valve, fuel injected unit. The styling is another big plus as they exactly resemble to their elder siblings. TVS Victor 125 The company has just axed the Phoenix 125 in the country but it continues for export. TVS is working on 125cc engines as of today and we can expect TVS Jupiter and TVS Victor 125 to be launched in the year 2017 or early 2018. The manufacturer is right now is set to make BSIV compliant engines and it will take some time before it comes. The engine on the Victor can easily make around 10 PS of power and 11 Nm of torque through its air-cooled 3-valve engine which is also seen on the 110cc variant. More power and displacement should make thins more peppier with similar low weight motorcycle on offer, making it efficient and fun to ride at the same time 2017 KTM Duke 390 Adventure Finally!

KTM Duke 790 Prayers have been answered and KTM is bringing and infact making the KTM Duke 790 in India.

The engine is a parallel twin motor which makes 105 PS of power and 86 Nm of torque and weighs under 190 kgs fully wet. That is twice the performance of the already mental Duke 390. It also looks like 390 in dimenions and aesthetics so it is a proper looker indeed. Hero XPulse This is something that has been long awaited. On the face of it, Hero wants to launch to launch 200cc motorcycles in shapes and sizes. They have showcased faired, naked and streetfighters and now they are here with an adventure off-roading motorcycle. No specifications are shared yet but we expect 20-25 PS bike with an oil-cooled engine to start a new segment. WE expect same motor to do duties on other quarter litre offerings. Stay tuned to this website for daily news on the same. Husqvarna Vitpilen 401 And Svartpilen 401 There are just more than one twins that are talk of the town. Husqvarna Vitpilen 401 And Svartpilen 401 are set to come to India as they will be manufacturered in India. THe manufacturer says they have the potential to be a bigger hit than the KTM. Given Bajaj-KTM pricing strategy, we can expect excellent prices as they are based on the old KTM Duke platform. The styling is downright gorgeous and should perform really well too. Benelli Imperiale, Leoncino 500 sport, TRK 251, 402-S, Leoncino 250 and BN 125 Benelli Imperiale, Leoncino 500 sport, TRK 251, 402S, Leoncino 250 and BN 125 are six motorcycles that were revealed at EICMA 2018.

The KTM Duke 390 adventure was wish list that came true in the second generation of the Duke series. However, BMW G310R chassis is made since day one to support the same. The adventure and enduro motorcycles are both expected to come, for no we will get the adventure version and we cannot wait for it. The same engine and chassis equipment with mild tweaks to do the new job are done. Read this too: PICTURES, SPECS AND ALL DETAILS ON G310 GS CAN BE FOUND HERE!

The G310R has a new 297cc engine which makes 31 BHP and 29 Nm of torque and weighs around 155 kgs that helps get a real good power to weight ratio. Launch happens in late 2016 or early 2017. The first motorcycle from the venture between two quality giants, will surely shake the market if it is priced right which should be around Rs. 2.3-2.4 lakhs mark.

Royal Enfield Continental GT 650 and Intercepetor The first ever 650cc motorcycle with a twin-cylinder layout from the iconic manufacturer is all set to come in the Indian market.

Double the figures of what the current CGT makes. We have more details in the link below. Royal Enfield fans finally have something truly 'powerful' with them coming soon. Read this too: More and detailed analysis of the CGT 750, Here! Hero Duet and Maestreo 125 The 125cc scooter segment is finally heating up after manufacturer realized that Suzuki two wheelers has a good amount of share of the scooter market. This is partly because of the 125cc metal and fiber-ed body scooter such as the Access and Swish. Honda was the first to respond after years of selling 110cc scooters with the Activa 125. Mahindra was next and now endless rumor from all levels suggest that the Hero Dare 125cc is coming soon in the market as soon as the monsoons hit our nation. Priced around Rs. 65,000 these scooters will have all the features of 110cc counterparts and then it will most possibly create a huge rage and demand in the market. Suzuki GS 150R The commuter is all set to come back on the market after it got silently discontinued. The model was quite a success initially and it was considered a better alternative to the unicorn despite low in sales because Suzuki dealerships weren't seen across the country. The new one is set to come on the same platform as the Gixxer twins, lower in spec and price it will go against the Unicorn 160 at a much lower price which will counter its counterparts as always with its value for money trump card. TVS Jupiter 125 Jupiter needs no introduction because it has been the most successful scooter of all time from the company. It had everything anyone ever needed in terms of value, performance and economy. The launch of the 125cc variant is imminent and should happen later this year or early 2017. Priced Rs. 4-5000 higher than the 110cc variant it will offer more to the consumer and fight in the 125cc segment where the new battle has begun by Mahindra and Honda that go against Suzuki 125cc twins. This will stay with the Ntorq 125 in the same stable and offer less features and more value. Suzuki Gixxer 250cc The Gixxer 250cc is confirmed but we don't know whether we are getting a single cylinder 250cc air-cooled motor with around 25 bhp or whether the twin-cylinder 30 BHP high revving motorcycle. The motorcycle is sure to come to the Indian market in that displacement but the news is unconfirmed. We expect the affordable version to come and take on the likes of the FZ 250 as Suzuki is targetting Yamaha with their range of motorcycles. Honda CB Hornet 250cc The rumor on the Honda Hornet coming with a 250cc engine is silently doing runs in the automotive market. The motorcycle has the chassis and equipment to hold an 250cc motor in it along with good aesthetics to support the deal. We think Honda would get this sooner or later. A 250cc oil-cooled motor making around 20-24 BHP and similar torque could go against the FZ 25 and spawn a proper fight in the Japanese clan. Hero Xtreme 200S Hero is finally getting things right in the performance motorcycle category. After losing space that it was suppose to gain with the new Karizma went down the stairs, it was time they did something on their own as EBR designed motorcycles did not well. Xtreme 200 is something that could work and could against new rivals with 18 PS and 17 Nm of torque. German engineers have worked on the motorcycle and should be refreshing and exciting to ride. Prices are said to be competitive, launch will happen in 2017 and we expect it to be around Rs 80,000 mark. Read this too: Detailed analysis of the Xtreme 200S, Here! Benelli TNT 135 The Italian brand seems to be on a roll when it comes to bringing sporty motorcycles to our shore. The 125cc mini motorcycle seen here is on the sportier side and will come and take the market in the same segment to a whole new level. The engine makes decent power and torque and weighs less and promises sporty riding and on the face of it, the way it's designed, it surely promises to do so. Benelli TRK 502 The adventure motorcycle that we all have been waiting for a long time in the 300-500cc category.While KTM seems to be delaying the project, smaller brand taking advantage of the situation and drop their bomb shells. The product is yet another masterpiece if priced right as it has everything you need. A 500cc twin-cylinder motor, raised suspension, extra ground clearance, knobbly tires and luggage capacity. The motorcycle seems to be worthy on paper and Benelli says the new engines are even better. Priced around 3.5 to 4 lakhs for the machine should be spot on and go against the likes of the popular, but not directly competitive Ninja 650 from Kawasaki.

To cash more on the same, even lower price than before and call in the handlebar enthusiast from around the country, the brand will launch the motorcycle very soon and will offer to the audience. Expect 30,000 price tag lower than the R3 and a launch before Diwali aka third quarter. Read this too: More and detailed analysis of the MT-03, Here! Yamaha FZ6R (FAZER) Now this is a news which came on the market from the Yamaha office in India and since then it gone down in the rubble again. However, we haven't forgotten about it and it is a very high probability that this bikes comes to India. Yamaha specifically said they will launch a Honda CBR650F rival soon into the market. A four-cylinder 650cc engine lies with this particular model (FZ6R). Making around the same horsepower and torque and weighs slightly less than the 650F, it plans to offer value and more performance than the CBR650F, as Yamaha is known to undercut its rival in the process of volumes and giving more accessibility to our cash trapped and value conscious Indian market. Launch should happen in Mid or late 2017, but it will be worth the wait. Honda NXR 160 This is something that is bound to come. Given the fact that the new platform of the 160cc motorcycle will be used widely, this 160cc engine equipped motorcycle will make it to our shores soon. Honda made it for Hero, they will do the so for themselves. The Impulse, despite its pint-sized motor did very well within the enthusiast segment and demand for more from the chassis, engine and manufacturer continues till date. Expect a 15 PS 160cc, carb, long travel suspension, higher ground clearance, Impulse replica to come soon. --------------------------------------------------------- Launched Hero Ismart 110 If you do something good and succeed at it, multiply, That is what Hero has done exactly here. Ismart 100cc variant went well and its time that the new 110cc engine from Hero gets the treatment. The 110 Splendor Ismart made its debut at the Auto Expo 2016. Now it is set to be launched in late 2016. The motorcycle slightly more power and torque and has Ismart technology to save fuel while idling, some for which a Law is set to pass.

The chassis and suspension along with brakes are based on the FZ to deliver fun at a affordable price. Motorcycle will be practical and a lot of fun along with safe as it will get ABS and disc brakes on both ends. Fuel-injection and SOHC along with 4-valves can be expected.

Piaggio has been done almost about OK with their sales of the retro scooters. However, now it wants to introduce performance scooters from the Aprilia brand.
