DSK Hyosung Upcoming Bikes in India

DSK Hyosung Upcoming Bikes in India

DSK Hyosung's absence from the AUTO EXPO 2016 was disheartening. While DSK Benelli had set up fascinating stand with their 4 new motorcycles, Hyosung was nowhere to be seen. However, a talk with Shirish Kulkarni, who heads both Benelli and  Hyosung, shined light on Hyosung's future plans. According to Kulkarni, Hyosung plans to launch 4 new motorcycles in India over a period of 18 months. Out of the 4 Hyosung bikes, 3 will be released this year, staring from May. The 4th bike is expected to come out early next year. Lets take a look at what Hyosung has in its bag: (1) Hyosung GV300 hyosung-gv300-p This strongly built cruiser is all set to replace the existing GV250 Aquila. Only available in the shade of grey, the GV300 is powered by a 275 cc engine which churns out a maximum power of 26 horses at 8500 rpm and a max torque of 23.5 Nm at 7000 rpm. This Hyosung has a great deal of chrome finishing and blackened out engine and alloys. It is expected to come out in May with a price tag of INR 3,00,000.
