World class Italian design, raw power,
adrenaline and speed. India's bikers can look forward to all this and
much more as Mahindra 2 Wheelers' Stallio and Mojo motorcycles made
their debut at a high voltage launch in Mumbai today.
"In
the last twelve months Mahindra 2 Wheelers has achieved a milestone by
registering a sale of 1.5 lac units – a clear validation of the
success of our niche PowerScooters strategy. We are now all geared up
to redefine the biking experience in India with the Stallio and the
Mojo which are a potent blend of global technology and innovation and
will take the category to the next level," said Mr. Anand Mahindra,
Vice Chairman and Managing Director, Mahindra Group.
"These
world class bikes are worthy additions to the Mahindra 2 Wheelers
product portfolio and are part of our commitment to establish a robust,
end-to-end two wheeler business in every segment of the industry," said
Mr. Anoop Mathur, President Two Wheeler Sector and Member of the Group
Executive Board, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd.
"Both
bikes incorporate world class R&D and design elements from our
Bologna, Italy based design house, Engines Engineering and are best
suited for Indian biking conditions.
The
Stallio offers a host of features unheard of in its segment and is
ideal for the avant-garde young executive or businessman who desires a
rugged and reliable yet stylish bike. We are delighted to have Aamir
Khan, the brand ambassador for the Stallio, present at the launch today,
as he personifies Mahindra's can do spirit, capturing the imagination
of the masses. The Mojo is a performance oriented, power packed bike
and is the ultimate machine for motorcycle enthusiasts who are
passionate about biking," he added.
The
Stallio was unveiled by actor, producer and director, Aamir Khan,
whose thought provoking movies have served to both entertain and
inspire an entire generation of young Indians.
"Mahindra
is a solid company with very strong and long standing goodwill. The
bike that the Mahindra Group is launching, the Stallio, is a stylish
bike offering consumers a great sense of comfort. It's a complete bike
that offers safety, style and peace of mind. I am sure it will soon be
one of India's iconic brands. I am very pleased to be associated with
the Mahindras and the Stallio," said Aamir.
The
Mahindra Stallio is available in two variants – Self Start / Cast
Alloy wheels / Digital Console and Kick Start / spoke wheels which are
available at Rs.44,699/- and 41,199/- (ex showroom Pune),
respectively, while the Mahindra Mojo is priced at Rs. 1.75 lac/- (ex
showroom Pune). The Stallio will be available at 370 Mahindra 2
Wheelers dealerships across the country. The Stallio comes with a four
year manufacturer's warranty. The distribution model for Mojo will be
different and therefore, would be available only in select outlets.
The
Mahindra Stallio and Mojo are all set to storm the motorcycle segment
with their sleek, sporty contours, Italian styling and comfort. The
bikes incorporate design elements from the Italian boutique design
house, Engines Engineering which has worked for marques such as Ducati,
MV Augusta and Benelli.
Mahindra Stallio:
Biking
will soon take on a whole new dimension with this powerful steed. The
Mahindra Stallio is a tough and durable bike with several stylish
features which puts it in a distinct motorcycling segment. These include
digital speedometer, powerful LED tail lamps, pilot LED lamps and a
fully flush fuel tank cap.
The
Mahindra Stallio incorporates a convenient, pro touch electric start
which allows you to take off at the touch of a button, even in heavy
traffic conditions. The multi reflector headlamp coupled with LED
lighting with clear lens indicators in the headlamp, tail lamps and
pilot lamps enhance front and rear visibility, making night riding a
safe experience. These LED lights are more resistant to failures from
vibration, generate almost no heat and consume very little power.
The
bike's chassis features a rugged, double cradle frame, ensuring
greater stability and less possibility of deformation in future. The
superior braking system, more responsive controls that perform well in a
variety of conditions, including water and mud, makes the Stallio a
very safe bike. The sturdy rear grab rail offers the pillion rider a
firm grip, ensuring safety.
The
large, fully digital display – the first in this segment - comes
equipped with a speedometer, fuel gauge, tachometer and clock. It also
gives you an idea of the distance travelled in one trip. The Stallio's
visor features a sharp, inverted arrow design which is sure to stop
traffic when you zoom past. This nifty bike sports cool racing style
alloy wheels which are strong and lightweight. They not only provide
more stability at corners but also have better tolerance to shocks and
ensure good heat dissipation. These trendy alloys are complemented by
class leading wheel base of 1265 mm which provide a stable ride and good
ground clearance. The fuel tank cap blends seamlessly with the body of
the bike, further adding to its style quotient.
The
Mahindra Stallio is available in a choice of five shades – Derby Red,
Colt Black, Equus Blue, Buckskin Yellow and Ranch Green.
Mahindra Mojo 300cc Bike:
Think Flower Power. Think groovy classic style but with a contemporary twist. Think Mahindra Mojo.
A
testosterone packed 300 cc bike with cool retro styling, the Mojo
blends the best of global motorcycle technology and design. It is a
handcrafted machine and a one of its kind lifestyle motorcycle which
will soon go into production. Mahindra 2 Wheelers has, in fact, devised a
unique marketing and promotion strategy for this ultimate performance
bike which will be revealed when the bike will be available for sale in
the next 3-4 months.
This
modern classic is driven by a 4V DOHC engine which offers peak power
of 26 BHP @ 8500 rpm and maximum torque of 24 Nm @ 7000 rpm, making it a
performance biker's dream come true. It also features a 6 speed
gearbox, as opposed to the regular 5 speed gearbox found amongst its
peers, along with a sporty dual exhaust for the right propulsion.
The
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system has been developed by Ducati
Energia of Italy. In an industry first, the Mojo sports inverted front
shock absorbers developed by Paioli of Italy, which ensures superior
shock absorbing ability at high speeds. This is complemented by a
horizontally mounted mono shox at the rear, allowing for much more
comfortable ride. Radially mounted assembly also helps in accurate
braking.
The
Mojo is the first ever motorcycle in India to sport Pirelli tubeless
radials. They are also the widest tyres in their class (4" x 17" at the
rear), ensuring greater stability. These are complemented by edgy front
petal disc brakes which are the largest in the segment at 320 mm to
ensure safe braking. There's a disc brake at the rear as well.
The
bike also features LED pilot lamps and tail lamps with clear lens
indicators in the headlamp, ensuring greater visibility for the rider.
The display includes a digital speedometer with fuel gauge, tripmeter,
gear shift indicator, and analogue tachometer. The bike also sports
indicators on the rear view mirrors, which are not seen on Indian bikes.
This
showstopper sports an aerodynamic ‘tear drop' shape and a classic gold
frame assembly with twin headlamps adding to the bike's distinctly
retro look. The dual pipe frame adds strength to the overall structure
of the bike, while the under cowl enhances the Mojo's macho appeal.
This ‘exoskeleton' look is usually only found in top notch brands.
The
Mojo is available in a choice of two colours – red and black.
Customers also have the option of customising their bikes with a range
of decals.
The
Two Wheeler Sector of Mahindra aims to design and market a full range
of scooters and motorcycles for the Indian and global markets, thus
establishing a robust and end-to-end two-wheeler business in every
segment of the industry.
The
company's Power Scooters portfolio caters to a range of consumer
segments. The Mahindra Rodeo with its very innovative, contemporary
features is popular amongst the Indian youth, while the Mahindra Duro is
positioned as a family scooter. The Flyte is the Indian woman's
two-wheeler of choice.
