Speaking at the launch, Mr YS Guleria, Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing, HMSI, said:
In Maharashtra, over 40% contribution to two-wheeler sales comes from scooters. As an early adopter of scooterization, there is an increased demand & varied customer needs emerging in the state and scooter segment is now ripe for sub segmentation. Honda continues to lead the scooterization of the nation and our new launch CLIQ is Honda’s next step to take scooterization deeper into the hinterlands.
Manufactured at Honda’s Tapukara facility in Rajasthan, the Honda Cliq is easily customisable. Standard features include first in segment block pattern tubeless tyres, combined braking system (CBS) and maintenance free battery.
