Norton Motorcycles developing two new platforms for India

The new platforms are reportedly in advanced stages of development.

According to a media report, Norton Motorcycles is working on two new platforms for India. These are expected to spawn models with engine capacities ranging from 350cc to 650cc.

The TVS-owned British motorcycle brand is said to be developing a 350-450cc platform aimed at Indian and other developing markets, while the other one is believed to be a 600-650cc global architecture.

The new platforms are reportedly in advanced stages of development. However, the exact details of the bikes that will be based on these platforms are unclear. That being said, reports suggest that one of the models could be a 350-450cc modern classic that could target Royal Enfield.

Norton Motorcycles was acquired by TVS Motor Company in 2020. The Indian 2-wheeler maker has already invested 200 million pounds in the company to develop new products and expand its market.
