It is no longer an emerging market, but a strong economy. I am very proud to officially announce our entry in the Indian market,” Ducati Motor Holding CEO Gabriele Del Torchio said. Ducati has entered India with the objective to be a market leader in the premium segment, he added. “We will be importing 50 bikes this year. If we will be able to sell these (50 units) in the current year, then it will be more than enough,” Torchio said. “We are not introducing ‘Monster 696’ model, which is currently going through homologation here. After the due processes get over, we will launch this model also,” said Ashish Chordia, Chief Executive Officer of Precision Motor India Pvt Ltd, the sole distributor of Ducati bikes in India. Precision Motor India already represents prestigious brands such as Porsche and Audi in India. The engine power of the Ducati superbikes would be in the range of 90 horsepower to 180 horsepower and would comply with Euro III emission norms, Chordia added.
