Suresh Kawachi关于Indian Market · Southeast Asia的点评

From a market perspective, Domenicali naming China and India as threats carries real weight. As emerging-market manufacturers rapidly raise their technical capability, not even a storied European name is safe. I see differentiating through brand value and experience as the inevitable answer for an era when the world's center of gravity is on the move.

I admire Ducati, but between the price tag and upkeep costs, it's out of reach for us regular folks.

Being under the VW/Audi umbrella is a real strength — the development resources are on a whole different scale.

The rise of Chinese and Indian manufacturers is real. It's getting hard to compete on price.

Chinese brands like CFMoto are running Brembo now, you can't write them off anymore.

'Not relying on bikes alone' — so they're going the apparel-and-merch route to make money. Smells like a branding play.

Ducati's hit 100 years already, huh. I'd love to visit the Borgo Panigale factory someday.

Happy 100th anniversary. The Panigale V4's styling is straight-up art.
