Honda has confirmed its first electric motorcycle, the Honda WN7, which will be unveiled in Europe. The WN7 is the production model of the Honda “EV Fun Concept” showcased at the EICMA 2024 show in Milan, Italy last November. The new Honda WN7 will be launched at EICMA 2025 in Milan, on November 4, 2025. The WN7 is part of Honda’s wider roadmap to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, with all motorcycles to be carbon neutral by 2040.
The Honda WN7 features a fixed lithium-ion battery with a claimed range of 130 km on a single charge. The Combined Charging System Type 2 (CCS2) charger is said to enable rapid charging from 20 per cent to 80 per cent in 30 minutes. A conventional home charger is claimed to take less than 3 hours to fully charge the Honda WN7.
According to Honda, the WN7’s performance rivals 600 cc internal combustion engine rivals in output, and 1,000 cc ICE models in torque. Two power versions will be offered, including a 18kW power version for A2 licence holders and 11 kW power version for A1 licence holders. A 5-inch TFT display will offer Honda RoadSync connectivity system and allied features.

Ola Electric has announced achieving the 10 lakh unit production milestone from its facility in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu. The company, which began manufacturing in 2021, achieved the milestone in less than four years. Ola attributes this milestone to demand for its S1 electric scooters and Roadster X electric motorcycles.
To celebrate the milestone, the company has introduced a special-edition Roadster X+. Finished in midnight blue with red accents on the seat, rims, and battery pack, the X+ is available with two battery packs: a 4.5 kWh unit and a larger 9.1 kWh pack. The smaller pack is rated at 252 km IDC range, while Ola claims the bigger unit can deliver up to 501 km.
Ola highlighted that the 9.1 kWh version will use its proprietary 4680-format 'Bharat Cell', developed and manufactured in India. The company has been positioning these cells as a step toward greater localisation of its EV technology.
At its annual ‘Sankalp’ event, Ola also announced two vehicles built around these 4680 cells, the S1 Pro+ with a 5.2 kWh pack, and the Roadster X+ with the 9.1 kWh pack. Prices are set at Rs 1.70 lakh and Rs 1.90 lakh respectively, with deliveries expected to begin this Navratri. Additionally, the S1 Pro Sport was launched with 5.2 kWh and 4 kWh battery options, starting at Rs 1,50 lakh. Deliveries for this model are planned for January 2026.

Citroën has previewed the next model in its new ‘X’ series - the Aircross X. The compact SUV is set to receive similar updates as the Basalt X, which was launched earlier in September. The Aircross X also marks the third model in Citroen’s range to get the ‘X’ treatment, following the internal combustion C3 hatchback and the Basalt.
Teasers preview new dashboard design and addition of cruise control; Automatic gearbox options to be retained.
On the design front, don’t expect any major changes to the exterior of the Aircross X, with the design remaining unchanged, including the alloy wheels. The bulk of the updates are inside the cabin with the Aircross X to also get the new, more squared-out dashboard design, replete with a dual-tone finish, new air con vent designs and repositioned air-con controls. The touchscreen is also set to now be a freestanding unit, with the instrument binacle also replaced by a freestanding screen. Also, expect new upholstery colours to be made available. As before, the Aircross is expected to continue to be offered in 5-seat and 5+2-seat configurations.
The Aircross X is set to get the new dashboard design seen in the Basalt X (pictured).
On the feature front, expect the top variants to get feature additions such as ventilated front seats, push-button start/stop, cruise control, keyless entry, ambient lighting, LED fog lamps, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror and 360-degree cameras. The top spec model is also expected to get Citroen’s new Cara voice assistant.
Mechanically, the Aircross is expected to also remain unchanged with the familiar pair of 1.2-litre naturally aspirated and 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine options carried forward. The former is offered with a manual gearbox only, while the latter gets the option for a 6-speed torque converter automatic.

The electronics suite offers multiple power modes, nine levels of traction control, three stages of engine braking, 3-levles for ABS, wheelie control, and more. All rider aids are managed and displayed through a five-inch TFT screen.
Suspension duties are handled by Ohlins Smart Electronic Control units at both ends.

Maruti Suzuki Victoris, the newest compact SUV for India, has received a 5-star safety rating by the Global New Car Assessment Programme (NCAP). The crash test was conducted under the ‘Safer Cars for India programme,’ and as per the Global NCAP report, the new Victoris has been awarded 5 stars for both adult and child occupant protection. The SUV, which is expected to go on sale in India later this month, scored 33.72 out of 34 for adult occupant protection and 41 out of 49 for child occupant protection.
Interestingly, this is the second safety certification received by the new Maruti Suzuki Victoris in less than two weeks. Earlier, on September 3, the Bharat NCAP also gave the car a 5-star crash rating, and in both cases, Maruti Suzuki India had submitted the car for voluntary testing. And the test results are similar.
Richard Woods, Chief Executive Officer, Global NCAP, said, “The 5-star Victoris clearly demonstrates Maruti Suzuki’s commitment to improved safety for its new models. It continues the trend set by the Dzire launched last year, which also achieved 5 stars. We warmly welcome Maruti Suzuki’s engagement with the requirements of Global NCAP’s new protocols. The result is a significant vehicle safety victory for motoring consumers in India.”
Like Bharat NCAP, Global NCAP also tested the Victoris for front offset impact and side impact – both movable deformable barrier test and pole impact – for adult occupants. The front offset test revealed that the protection offered to the driver’s chest and right leg was adequate, whereas the rest were rated as good. In the Bharat NCAP test, protection offered to both legs of the driver was rated as adequate. Protection offered to the front passenger was rated good overall.
In both side impact tests, protection offered to both the driver and front passenger was rated as good by Bharat NCAP. However, in the report released by Global NCAP, the driver’s chest showed adequate protection in the Side Movable Deformable Barrier Test. However, in the Side Pole Impact Test, the rating was good overall.
The list of standard safety features on offer. Based on the report, the SUV will get 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, and electronic stability control as standard. The front two seats offer seatbelts with pretensioners and load-limiters, while the two rear outboard seats offer ISOFIX anchorage. Subsequently, the report showed that the child dummies received full protection in both front and side impact tests.
The Maruti Suzuki Victoris will share its powertrain options with the Grand Vitara, featuring the 1.5-litre petrol and 1.5-litre strong hybrid engine. The former gets the option of both a 6-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the strong hybrid gets eCVT automatic. The petrol automatic also comes with the option of all-wheel drive. The footwell area was rated as stable, while the bodyshell was also rated as stable, and it is capable of withstanding further loadings.

The Meteor 350 was the first motorcycle built on Royal Enfield’s J-series platform, launched in India back in 2020. It arrived as the successor to the popular Thunderbird, aiming to carry forward that legacy in a more modern package. Over the years, Royal Enfield has refreshed the Meteor with new paint schemes and some feature additions, but for 2025, the brand is rolling out a more substantial update. The changes go beyond just colours, bringing upgrades in line with what we’ve already seen on the revised Classic 350 and Hunter 350.

Starting with the prices, the outgoing Meteor 350 was priced from Rs 2.08 lakh to Rs 2.32 lakh (ex-showroom). Thanks to the revised GST, the Meteor 350 is now priced from Rs 1.96 lakh to Rs 2.15 lakh (ex-showroom). Colour options for the updated motorcycle include Fireball Orange & Fireball Grey, which are offered in the base variant, Stellar Matt Grey & Stellar Marine Blue, Aurora Retro Green & Aurora Red and the top-spec Supernova Black.

As for the updates, the Meteor 350 keeps its familiar design, with most of the changes centred around features. The LED headlamp – already offered on other RE models – is now standard across all variants, along with the Tripper navigation pod.
The cruiser also gets new LED turn indicators, while the most notable addition is a slipper clutch. This upgrade, first introduced on the Classic 350 and later on the Hunter 350, has now made its way to the Meteor. Other feature additions include a USB Type-C fast-charging port; meanwhile, the Supernova and Aurora trims add adjustable levers to the list.
In terms of powertrain, the updated Meteor 350 continues with the tried and tested 349 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled motor, which puts out 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm of peak torque. This engine is mated to a five-speed gearbox.

Along with slashing prices for the C 400 GT by Rs 92,000, BMW Motorrad India has reduced the price of its entry-level fully faired motorcycle, the BMW G 310 RR, following the recent revision in GST rates for motorcycles. The updated price comes into effect from September 22, 2025.
The standard variant of the G 310 RR, previously priced at Rs 3.05 lakh (ex-showroom), now comes at a sticker price of Rs 2.81 lakh (ex-showroom). This represents a reduction of Rs 24,000, making the motorcycle more accessible to buyers.
The G 310 RR is BMW Motorrad’s most affordable fully-faired motorcycle in India, developed in partnership with TVS Motor Company. It shares its platform with the TVS Apache RR 310 but carries BMW’s styling and brand positioning.

The bike is powered by a 312 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 34 bhp at 9,700 rpm and 27.3 Nm at 7,700 rpm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox. Some of the features include ride-by-wire throttle, riding modes, dual-channel ABS, full-LED lighting, and a colour TFT display.

KTM India recently launched the 160 Duke in the country at a price tag of Rs 1.85 lakh (ex-showroom). The new 160 Duke is now the entry-level model in the Duke family, after the KTM 125 Duke was discontinued earlier this year. Let’s take a closer look at the most powerful 160 cc offering in the Indian market, currently.
The KTM 160 Duke looks like the KTM 200 Duke, and that is primarily because both share the same platform. Thereby, the hardware components are the same.
The overall design of the baby Duke is very sharp and sporty, and as KTM says, targeted at young riders in the 18-24 years age bracket, and will also address other riders upgrading from smaller machines.
The 160 Duke is offered with the colour options: Electronic Orange, Atlantic Blue & Silver Metallic Matte.
Based on the first-generation platform of the Duke family, which included the KTM 200 Duke and KTM 125 Duke, the new KTM 160 Duke is built around an all-new 160 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine.
Braking hardware includes a 320 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc.
The 160 Duke has a kerb weight of 147 kg, a seat height of 815 mm, and ground clearance of 174 mm, while the fuel tank capacity is rated to be 10.1 litres.
Like the rest of the Duke family, the KTM 160 Duke sits on a steel trellis frame with WP Apex upside-down front fork and a WP monoshock rear suspension.
The entry-level KTM model goes up against the Yamaha MT-15. To know how it fares against the Yamaha, tap here.

Royal Enfield has announced a sweeping price revision across its lineup, following the recent GST rate reduction. While the brand’s 350 cc models are set to get more affordable, the bigger 450 cc and 650 cc motorcycles will see prices move upward. The changes, effective from September 22, 2025, aim to pass on the full impact of the revised tax structure to customers. For buyers, this means a mixed bag, more
accessible entry-level bikes, but higher tags for the larger machines.
The 350 cc lineup, which includes the Hunter (Rs 1.38 lakh - Rs 1.67 lakh), Bullet (Rs 1.62 lakh - Rs 2.02 lakh), Classic (Rs 1.81 lakh - Rs 2.16 lakh), Meteor (Rs 1.91 lakh - Rs 2.14 lakh), and the Goan Classic (Rs 2.18 lakh - Rs 2.21 lakh), has seen a significant drop in prices.
On average, the 350 cc bikes are cheaper by about Rs 12,000 to Rs 19,000, translating to an 8.2 per cent reduction. That makes the entry-level Royal Enfield range a good bit easier on the wallet for new buyers.
Moving into the 450 cc range, models like the Scram (Rs 2.23 lakh - Rs 2.31 lakh), Guerrilla (Rs 2.56 lakh - Rs 2.72 lakh), and Himalayan (Rs 3.06 lakh - Rs 3.20 lakh) have become more expensive, with hikes ranging between Rs 15,000 and Rs 21,000, or roughly 7.3 per cent.
At the top end, the 650 cc machines, including the Interceptor (Rs 3.32 lakh - Rs 3.63 lakh), Continental GT (Rs 3.50 lakh - Rs 3.78 lakh), Classic 650 (Rs 3.61 lakh - Rs 3.75 lakh), Shotgun (Rs 3.94 lakh - Rs 4.09 lakh), Bear 650 (Rs 3.72 lakh - Rs 3.94 lakh), and the Super Meteor (Rs 3.99 lakh- Rs 4.32 lakh), also see a bump in prices.
Increases for the 650 cc lineup are slightly higher, ranging from about Rs 22,000 to almost Rs 30,000 (again around 7.3 per cent). While it’s a heavier hit, these bikes still remain among the most affordable twin-cylinder motorcycles in India.

Following the recent revision in GST, BMW Motorrad India has reduced the price of its C 400 GT scooter by Rs 92,000, bringing the new ex-showroom price down to Rs 10.83 lakh. The new prices will take effect on September 22, 2025. The premium maxi-scooter was previously priced at Rs 11.75 lakh, and the updated model was launched in India in March 2025.
Powering the C 400 GT is a 350 cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that produces 33.5 bhp at 7,500 rpm and 35 Nm of peak torque at 5,750 rpm. It features a 12.8-litre fuel tank and weighs in at 214 kg (kerb). Suspension duties are handled by a telescopic fork up front and dual preload-adjustable springs at the rear, paired with 15-inch front and 14-inch rear alloy wheels.
In terms of equipment, the scooter is equipped with a 10.25-inch TFT display that offers Bluetooth connectivity, while it also includes a USB-C charging port. It has a 4.5-litre compartment at the front and 37.6 litres of storage under the seat.
