The manufacturer also revealed that all four of its factories – Manesar (Haryana), Tapukara (Rajasthan), Kolar (Karnataka) and Vithalapur (Gujarat) – have moved to BS6 production, with a combined capacity of 6.4 million units in FY2019.

According to Yadvinder Singh Guleria, senior vice-president, Sales and Marketing, HMSI, said, “Honda was the first two-wheeler manufacturer to lead the BS6 transition almost six months ahead of the deadline. Over 3,00,000 customers are now experiencing Honda’s advanced technologies like eSP, many first-in-segment features like ACG starter motor and significant mileage-up. The coming weeks will see Honda’s BS6 line-up get more robust with new introductions across segments.”
