This Information TVS currently not keen to explore 180 cc plus motorcycles. Where is the Racing DNA?, Read More

TVS seems to have no 180 cc plus ambitions currently.. Hello its the end of 2012..!!
I have often come across statements like “Own sources/friends tell us.. We have insider news.. that TVS will soon launch a 200/220/250 cc Apache RTR Motorcycle..!! ” Just a casual search on the net will land you to many such baseless websites/blogs.

But now the Chairman of TVS Motor Company has himself cleared doubts over the so far “mythological” 200 cc (+) motorcycle models from TVS. Speaking to the press during the launch of the Phoenix 125, Mr. Venu Srinivasan has told the media.



It is small segment (200-250 cc). Once you go beyond 150-180cc the numbers are much, much small. Our focus is below that. - Mr V. Srinivasan (Chairman TVS Motor)

Situation Critical for TVS Motor (in motorcycles)
The Factory Racing Unit of TVS Motor is probably just set up to release the pent up emotions of the ones at TVS who want to take risk..!!
The statement made by Mr. Srinjivasan means that at least currently TVS is not that interested in exploring 200 (+) cc motorcycles. Although “desi” bike enthusiasts will definitely be disappointed by Mr. Srinivasan’s statement, the situation at TVS Motor is actually quite critical. In the month of August 2012 TVS managed to sell a total of just 53,673 motorcycles (domestic + exports) which is less than half of the motorcyles (104,316) that Honda (HMSI) managed to sell during the same period ..!!

In fact Bajaj sells more numbers of just its “Pulsar” motorcycles in a single month than the combined motorcycle sales of TVS in Aug 2012..!!

Motorcycle Marketshare in 2012 (Source: Business Standard)
To improve the sales numbers, TVS will be on a model launch spree every 3 months from now on. The 125 cc Phoenix is one of such launch which will be followed by variants from its scooter range and also a “110 cc Victor” to be launched somewhere in August 2013. Apparently no bigger than 180 cc plans feature here.



”The Greatest Risk in life is not Taking a Risk”

The Apache RTR launched in 2007 which although wasn’t totally path breaking, was nevertheless a bold step considering it was from TVS. Apart from that one incident, TVS has always been conservative and safe in its strategies/model launches. Reacting to the market rather than going ahead and creating the market.

With competitors like Hero, Bajaj and Honda, chasing sales numbers won’t be an easy affair. One can never predict the future accurately. At best one can make an intelligent guess. But I wish TVS could have explored the high margin segment (200+ cc motorcycles) instead of having sales ambition of low margin products.



Is it the same company with Racing DNA?

Don’t get me wrong but going higher up in engine cc might have no direct relation to having a racing team. But “racing” signifies competitive spirit and not shying away from taking risk. The Factory Racing Unit of TVS Motor is probably set up just to release the pent up emotions of the ones who want to be aggressive/take risk/gamble/be competitive.

Even the outlandish/over the top concept vehicles which TVS dishes out without fail at every New Delhi Auto Expo (but NEVER makes into actual production) is an outlet of the pent up creativity of the TVS designers.

But when it comes to making the plunge in the market place, I guess taking risk is not in the DNA of TVS Motor.

Sad..
