Upcoming Fresh Bikes In India Under three Lakh two thousand seventeen – two thousand eighteen | Price, Launch, News
By now you must have all read our earlier post –Upcoming bikes in India under 1.Five lakh. However, if you are in the market for something more premium here are some of the top bikes that will be launched in India under three lakhs, in 2017-2018.
Unlike previous years, this is a segment that is gong to see lots of deeds, especially in the 1.Five lakh to Two.Five lakh range. What’s even more titillating is that Indian manufacturer’s will also be actively fighting it out.
Here are some of the bikes to look out for.
Bajaj Dominar 400SS
Bajaj launched the Dominar four hundred in India last year. The bike is inspired from the Pulsar CS400 concept that was seen at the two thousand fourteen Auto Expo, and has beautiful design, good features and a very powerful engine.
Bajaj sees the Dominar brand as a next-gen ‘Pulsar’ and is thus sure to spawn fresh bikes under it. Tho’ nothing will materialize soon, very first hints of a sportsbike could come out in 2018.
Price – Rs. 1.75 lakhs
Launch date – 2018
Benelli Tornado 302
The Benelli Tornado three hundred two was showcased at the two thousand sixteen Auto Expo and is the faired version of the TNT300. This twin cylinder bike will contest with Yamaha’s R3 and Ninja three hundred on launch.
The Tornado three hundred two is expected to launch in India this year itself however the manufacturer’s very first priority is the TNT 135.
Price – Trio.Two lakhs
Launch date – Late 2017
BMW G310R
Upcoming bikes in India under three Lakh – BMW G three hundred ten R
This is most most likely the most awaited bike in this list. BMW’s G310R was very first unveiled in two thousand fifteen and is born out of the BMW-TVS partnership. The bike will be made in India and is thus expected to be very affordable.
Recently BMW, through the twitter treat had confirmed that the G310R will be launched in Spring 2017.
Launch date – Delayed till 2018
BMW G310GS
BMW G310GS is an adventure-tourer based on the G310R and was recently unveiled globally. The bike is yet to be spotted in India but since its production will be in the country, we can expect it to be launched here as well.
Price – Two.Two lakhs
Launch date – 2018
Hero HX250
We don’t know what to say about the HX250. It’s been with the ‘to be launched soon’ tag since 2014, and the latest showcase of a production version at the two thousand sixteen Auto Expo slightly fueled our expectations. However Hero has opted to remain silent about its development and launch plans.
Hero’s next launch will most very likely the Xtreme 200S followed by the XF3R.
Price – 1.7 lakhs
Launch date – 2018
Honda CBR350RR
Honda launched the much awaited CBR250RR in Indonesia last year. However expectations were high, the manufacturer has confirmed that they will not launch the 250RR in India or US.
There are rumours that Honda is working on a CBR350RR for launch in these markets but nothing has been confirmed yet. This might be true, as Honda truly needs a R3 and Ninja three hundred rival and if not for a 250RR, a 350RR seem to be the only logical way.
Launch date – 2018
Husqvarna Vitpilen four hundred one and Svartpilen 401
Update: Recently Rajiv Bajaj said that they will not launch the Husqvarna bikes in India. Confirming this news, Mr. Oliver Goering – Managing director, Husqvarna, said that the company will manufacture the Husqvarna bikes in Austria to give it a premium feel as compared to the KTMs.
Hyosung GV300
Hyosung was to launch four fresh bikes inbetween two thousand sixteen and two thousand seventeen but none of them have materialised as of yet. It’s unclear whether they still plan to launch these bikes in the country.
The GV300 is a cruiser from the Korean manufacturer powered by a 26.6PS producing 275cc oil-cooled V-twin motor.
Price – Two.8 lakhs
Launch date – 2018
Hyosung GD250R / GT300R
Either the GD250 or the GT300R will be Hyosung’s choice for a replacement for the GT250R in India.
Launch date – 2018
Hyosung GD450
Another arousing bike that was part of the initial draft is a 50PS producing Hyosung GD450. If priced right, this motorcycle could be gigantic force to be reckoned within Rs. Three lakh.
Price – Two.Five lakhs
Launch date – 2018
KTM Duke three hundred ninety 2017
Upcoming bikes in India under three Lakh- fresh Duke 390
Much like the Duke two hundred that we talked about, the Duke three hundred ninety will also get updates for 2017. However the switches are much more extensive on the latter. They have thus enlargened the gap inbetween the two bikes, which is superb.
The fresh Duke three hundred ninety gets features like large TFT instrument console, ride-by-wire, convention harass and more.
Price – Two.1 lakhs
Launch date – two thousand seventeen (launched)
KTM three hundred ninety Escapade
An Escapade derivative of the Duke three hundred ninety is also in works. Much like KTM’s one thousand two hundred ninety Venture line-up, design similarities with its Duke counterpart can be expected. However the Austrian manufacturer has confirmed that the fresh three hundred ninety Venture will adhere to stick codes of the segment and not just be a botched up Duke 390.
Price – Two.Five lakhs
Launch date – 2018-2019
Kawasaki Z250Sl and Ninja 250Sl
There had been rumours that Kawasaki would launch the Z250Sl and Ninja 250Sl in India, when it was unveiled in some Asian markets. However the manufacturer hasn’t shown any positive signs and we remain skeptical about their launch here.
Both the bikes come with a two hundred forty nine cc, Liquid-cooled, 4-stroke, single Cylinder mill producing maximum of 27.62 Bhp @ nine thousand seven hundred rpm. Only localisation will ensure affordable prices, which is one of the reasons why the Japanese manufacturer is reluctant to launch in India.
Price – from two lakhs
Launch date – 2018

Recently Royal Enfield had made rear disc brake and Six pack standard across all models in their European portfolio. We in India should receive similar updates for 2017/2018

News – Bullet five hundred with rear disc
Royal Enfield 750
Royal Enfield is presently working on a 750cc motorcycle for launch in 2018. A Continental GT version of the bike had been spotted testing earlier.
The motorcycle will rival with Harley Davidson’s Street seven hundred fifty globally but in India, we will get it at a much lower price range.
Price – Two.Five lakhs

TVS is readying up the Akula three hundred ten for launch in India and other Asian markets. The bike had been spotted numerous times on our roads and should make debut this year itself.
