To make their motorcycles more accessible to prospective buyers, Keeway India has slashed the prices of its entry-level motorcycles offered in India. The naked Keeway K300N and the faired Keeway K300R both, have received a price revision and now carry a sticker price of Rs 2.55 lakh and Rs 2.65 lakh (both ex-showroom, India), respectively.
While the K300N is now affordable by Rs 30,000, the K300R is now cheaper by Rs 55,000. Adishwar Auto Ride India of the Mahavir Group, which handles operations for Keeway in India, has managed to attain better import costs for the above bikes. This has allowed the company to reduce the prices of the two motorcycles and let customers benefit from them.
