YEZDI 2018

Mahindra’s plans to re-launch the Jawa brand of bikes in India Yezdi Bikes 

»Mahindra is likely to launch the new Jawa motorcycles under the Yezdi moniker to capitalize on the iconic status of the brand. The new motorcycles are likely to enter production at the manufacturer’s Pithampur plant in early 2018. One of the first Yezdi models to launch in India will be the new Yezdi 350 cc model. It will be based on the 2017 Jawa 350 that was revealed earlier this year.

The new 2017 Jawa 350 was revealed some months ago. Much like its predecessor, the new motorcycle has a 350 cc heart and a its design pays homage to original. A big difference, however, is that the engine is no more a 2-stroke unit. The company has used a 4-stroke motor in order to meet the much stricter emission norms of today’s day and age. We expect this Jawa motorcycle to debut as the new Yezdi 350 in India at the Auto Expo 2018.

The new model 350cc Yezdi will have the same single-cylinder 350cc engine that powers the 2017 Jawa 350. This engine is supplied by Chinese engine manufacturer Shineray. Essentially, this engine is based on an old Honda engine. The motor outputs a max. power of 26 BHP and a peak torque of 32 Nm. It comes mated to a four-speed manual transmission. That said, we’re hoping Mahindra would take note of this and offer a five-speed unit. The new bike will offer ABS.

Price (expected)Rs 1.5 lakh

Price of the new 350cc Yezdi model will be announced only at the time of its launch. However, Mahindra has been pretty vocal about positioning this new brand as a lifestyle offering. This means there’s a high chance of prices being on the higher side. We’re expecting a price of Rs 1.5 lakh for the upcoming model.
