Husqvarna has just announced the 2024 iterations of its street bike lineup in the form of the Vitpilen and Svartpilen in the global market. While the new bikes are indeed slated for launch in the US as we highlighted in a previous article, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the first country to get them is the country they’re made in: India.
Pierer Mobility, KTM, Husqvarna, and GasGas’ parent company, has had a long-standing relationship with Indian motorcycle manufacturer Bajaj. In terms of production capabilities and sheer sales volume, Bajaj is considered one of the biggest manufacturers in the world, and ever since KTM ventured into the small-displacement street bike market in 2013 with the 390 Duke, has been stamping out all sorts of small-displacement bikes in partnership with the European conglomerate.
