Triumph Motorcycles: No Price Hike On BSVI Motorcycles Until July 2020
Triumph Motorcycles India has announced that it will not hike prices of its BS-VI compliant motorcycles until July 2020. The move comes amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic which has impacted the overall market sentiment and economic conditions.
Triumph also announced that it will extend the warranty as well as the EW on motorcycles which were due to expire between 20th March – 3rd May 2020, till 30th June 2020. Additionally, the warranty of the bikes would not be affected due to delay in periodic maintenance in this lockdown period provided these customers to get the vehicle serviced within the next 30 days of the lockdown opening.
Speaking about the announcement, Shoeb Farooq, General Manager, Triumph Motorcycles India Pvt Ltd said, “Triumph Motorcycles has decided to defer the upcoming BS-VI price increase amidst the current difficult and unprecedented circumstances due to the COVID19 pandemic. We also understand that our customers would have been concerned with their motorcycle warranties expiring in March & April and services lapsing in the lockdown period, hence to ease their concerns we’ve decided to extend the expiring warranties until 30th June 2020 & any lapsed periodic maintenance during the lockdown will not impact warranty as long as customer gets it done within a month of the lockdown opening. At the back end we are preparing our dealerships to handle any increased service volume post the lockdown and we’ve put processes in place to ensure a smooth customer experience. These are trying times and as a brand we want to offer as much support to our customers as possible”.
