When it comes to the two wheeler market, Mahindra’s role has been voluntarily cut short. In the recent past, the two wheeler manufacturer decided to plug scooter sales in entirety and keep its Mojo motorcycle in the market. Following the mandatory ABS update for two wheelers, Mojo was relaunched as a single variant. Prior to that, Mahindra Mojo was available in XT and UT variants.

Mahindra’s new business plan also means the Centuro isn’t offered any longer. This leaves the brand with Gusto and Mojo ABS on sale. For an economy that relies heavily on two-wheelers, Mahindra’s decision to voluntarily forego any opportunity to cash in came from it’s longterm plan of reducing losses. This was however not the first time, Mahindra axed a sizeable product portfolio. Back in 2015, the brand let go of Pantero, Duro, Flyte and Kine.

The 2017 decision to exit the mass market two-wheeler segment meant the Mojo ABS was in the pipeline. Other growth plans included the launch of a new range of Jawa motorcycles in the last fiscal. This is a Classic Legends Pvt. Ltd. venture, part of the Mahindra group.
