yamahaR15 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2008 Bajaj, a company that is bugged by Chinese copy bikes, is planningto counter attack. Sources close to Bajaj say the 2-wheeler maker willenter the Chinese market with a brand new 125 cc motorcycle, which willalso be sold in Nigeria. This bike will have a 125 cc engine and will retail at around $500. Bajaj is trying to make use of cheap labor in China, but whatremains to be seen is whether they will be able to compete with theestablished local brands, who dominate the 2-Wheeler industry in China. Bajaj will introduce the low-cost bike under a different brand nameto keep their brand image in tact as they have plans for making severalhigh capacity bikes for other overseas markets. After success of the Pulsar and Discover, Bajaj Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy cat 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2008 I don't think that Bajaj holds any brand image. According to me, Bajaj is a bike maker who sells cheap(quality) bikes. But it might be premium brand in China. But it'll be really hard to fight against them. Let us wait and watch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
