On October 19, 2022, Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India CEO Atsushi Ogata made an important announcement at the International Conference on Biofuels in New Delhi. The Indian government is currently working on its roadmap regarding flex-fuel vehicles, and although the details are still fuzzy, HMSI intends to be ready.
“Our internal target is [a] minimum [of] one model, the first model of flexi-fuel motorcycle, to be launched by the end of 2024,” Ogata said. He added that HMSI is currently waiting for stronger direction from the Indian government before the company finalizes its plans.
