TVS NEO : Bebek

Ever heard this name before ? Bebek ? Well, below is the bebek from TVS. In India it do not appeal Indias, it fails to have any impression but in South-East Asia it makes majority of two wheelers.  To capture that majority in those markets TVS launched Bebek - TVS NEO this year in Indonesia aiming to produce 100,000 units in market there in first year.

It is has dual clutch.. Now what is that. Well it has option to switch between automatic and manual transmission. People who cannot properly recall things then remember Hero Honda Street or Kinetic K4, they were actually bebek but none of both succeded to  create any mark in India. I think their production has been halted.

Well, ya.. I did mention that in my post. Its not appealing for Indians at all. But remember, there were days when Luna was main mode of transportation in India.

Bajaj XCD sorta bike are the demand of market now a days. Bike with super milage and looks too.
