KTM India crossed the significant milestone of rolling out one millionth motorcycle from the Bajaj Auto Chakan plant. The one millionth unit - which was a KTM 390 Adventure - rolled out almost 12 years after the first units started to roll out of the plant for the sole intent of exports back in 2011. Since then, KTM also entered the Indian market with the Duke in 2012, RC in 2014, and the Adventure in 2020. The motorcycles are now offered with a range of engines, and while the Adventure is available with only the 250 cc & 373 cc (390) engines, the other two models are also available with 125 cc & 200 cc engines in India.
Speaking on the occasion, Stefan Pierer, CEO, Pierer Mobility AG (parent company of KTM), said, "This is indeed a momentous occasion for both KTM and Bajaj Auto. At Pierer Mobility AG, we abide by our four pillars of success. These include operating as a global entity, innovating continuously, getting the right talent, and building distinct brands worldwide. Our constant drive to innovate and the ability to build strong brands across markets have found resonance with Bajaj Auto. Our success in this partnership gives us great confidence about the future, where we will expand our portfolio into electric and maintain our position as leaders in the powered two-wheeler industry."
