Suresh Kawachi关于Indian Market · Southeast Asia的点评

A scale exceeding a million units a month shows the two-wheeler center of gravity has completely shifted to this region. The strength of the Splendor and Activa tells you that practical bikes are the real star of this country.

Splendor at #1 is a given, but it's an interesting picture with sibling models Activa and Shine sitting at #2 and #3.

About 1.269 million units, beating last year's 1.177 million — a scale like that just from the top 10 really shows how huge the market is.
