India's two-wheeler market is off to a robust start for FY2026, with April sales showing significant year-on-year growth. Hero MotoCorp led the pack, followed closely by Honda. Royal Enfield also saw strong domestic demand, while Suzuki reported steady gains. Both motorcycles and scooters are contributing to this positive trend.

Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z gets a new 349cc engine, slashing its ex-showroom price to Rs 1,80,092. This move, driven by tax benefits on sub-350cc bikes, offers buyers up to Rs 24,500 savings. While power sees a slight dip, the motorcycle retains its premium features like USD forks and ride-by-wire, making it a compelling performance option.

In terms of powertrain, there are no confirmations as of now. It’s expected to continue with the same set of engine options which include a 1.2-litre NA petrol engine with 89 bhp of power and 113 Nm of torque. The other engine option is a 1.0-litre booster jet turbocharged petrol engine with 100 bhp of power and 148 Nm of torque.

India's passenger vehicle market kicked off the new fiscal year with a robust 27% sales surge in April, reaching approximately 4.5 lakh units. Strong performances from Maruti Suzuki, Tata Motors, and Mahindra & Mahindra, fueled by demand for utility vehicles and SUVs, propelled this growth. Despite rising input costs, the industry is experiencing a significant upswing.

All three models are powered by a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder, NA petrol engine with 103 hp and come paired with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic. It’s also offered with an AWD option. The Victoris records slightly higher fuel efficiency than the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara and Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder in standard manual and automatic configurations.

On the mechanical side, the facelift could bring minor suspension tweaks aimed at improving ride comfort and handling. One recent test mule was seen with a 6-speed manual gearbox, suggesting that Maruti Suzuki may introduce an additional gear compared to the current setup. This change is likely intended to improve gear ratios for smoother highway cruising.

As part of its expansion strategy, Maruti Suzuki identified land in March 2026 for a fifth manufacturing plant at Khoraj Industrial Estate in Sanand, Gujarat. Once operational, the new facility is expected to add an annual production capacity of 10 lakh units. Maruti Suzuki currently produces 17 models across more than 650 variants, catering to both domestic and export markets.

Maruti Suzuki achieved record revenue of over Rs 1.8 lakh crore in 2025-26, driven by strong sales of 24.2 lakh vehicles. Despite a 19.9% revenue surge, net profit saw a marginal 1.2% increase due to rising operational costs. The company anticipates producing an additional 2.5 lakh vehicles this year as supply chain issues resolve and new production capacity becomes available.

Charkop police apprehended a 23-year-old man, Mohd Raees Shah, for a string of two-wheeler thefts across western suburbs. Five stolen motorcycles, valued at Rs 2 lakh, were recovered, leading to the resolution of five cases registered at Charkop police station. The arrest followed a suspicious encounter with two individuals pushing a stolen bike.

India’s auto boom is back — but not for everyone. As SUVs surge and profits rise, entry-level cars are being left behind.

Maruti Suzuki achieved its best-ever April in 2026, dispatching 2,39,646 units with domestic sales hitting a new peak of 1,91,122 units, a growth of over 34%. The company's SUV sales also reached an all-time high of over 50,000 units, boosted by new launches like the Victoris and strong performances from models such as the Grand Vitara and Brezza.

In a heart-wrenching incident on SH-55 in Begusarai, a motorcyclist’s dream of returning from a joyous wedding celebration shattered. A speeding truck veered into their path, resulting in the untimely deaths of two young lives, Aman Kumar, 25, and his brother Shivam Kumar, just 18.

Royal Enfield has achieved a remarkable third-place ranking globally for brand strength in Brand Finance's Automotive Industry 2026 report. The Indian motorcycle giant saw a significant 30% surge in brand value to USD 1.2 billion, earning an AAA rating. This recognition underscores their expanding international presence and strong customer engagement.
