Harison Enters ATV market with ‘FUNTY’ Harison Enters ATV market with ‘FUNTY’
India gets its first locally built ATV, hope they perform well too. I shall love to buy one of these FUNTY's and go to office on it.
Harison, an Indian company with presence in the water pump and crushing machine market have now entered the All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) market with their FUNTY range which includes 4 models.
The market for ATV’s in India, though still fractional when compared to other countries, is at a rise and Harison wanted to make full use of being one of the early birds in the ATV market. Till now we have only a few companies selling ATV’s in India like Adventure Wheels, Polaris, etc.
‘Our target is to provide the Indian customers with very affordable All terrain vehicles, which could entertain and perform very close to the other extremely expensive options of ATV in the market’ says a Harison spokesperson.
The 4 models in the Funty range vary from 50cc to 200 cc and are namely Junior (50cc), Striker (110cc), Fighter (150cc) and Terminator (200cc). The ATV’s provide to a wide range of customers right from children to adults. The Funty range would for now be available only in Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat and Goa through authorized dealerships but expansion to other states for wider availability is surely on the cards.
A special ‘Loan and Exchange’ mela has also been organized by the company from 13-15th June 2011 at Digambar Naik Hall, Kothrud, Pune where new customers can avail special loans to finance a Funty or exchange their old ATV for a new one at special discounts.
With newer companies and products entering the yet unexplored segments of the Indian automotive scene, it’s good to see an overall development, something recreational and different. Funty range of ATV models
