About two months after the availability of Honda NAVI, a crossover between a motorcycle and a scooter, it has crossed the 10,000 unit sales mark.
Commenting on the NAVI’s new sales milestone, Yadvinder Singh Guleria, senior vice president, Sales & Marketing, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India (HMSI) said, “We are delighted with the overwhelming response for NAVI from customers, especially from urban trendsetting youth. Unconventional design, looks and endless possibilities of customization, make owning NAVI a fantastic experience. The unique appeal has made it a rage in the two-wheeler industry. While we celebrate 10,000 units of NAVI and expand the NAVI phenomenon to new cities, the number of bookings is increasing. NAVI is a three-in-one package with the ride feel of a motorcycle, comfort of a scooter and fun of a customized creation”
