Looking for the next ride? Whether you want an electric SUV, a fresh‑look motorcycle or a sleek commuter bike, India’s auto showrooms have something for every budget. Below we break down three hot launches you’ll see on the showroom floor this year.
Toyota Urban Cruiser EV is Toyota’s first all‑electric SUV for India. After a sneak peek at GIIAS 2025, the Urban Cruiser EV will arrive with two battery options – 49 kWh and 61 kWh – and can charge up to 150 kW fast. Expect a range that comfortably covers daily city trips, and Level‑2 ADAS features for added safety. Prices should start around Rs 20 lakh ex‑showroom, putting it in direct competition with the Creta EV and ZS EV. If you’re thinking of an electric family SUV, this model is worth a test drive.
Triumph Speed T4 gets a style upgrade. Triumph Motorcycles India added four dual‑tone color schemes, each with a brushed‑steel exhaust and 3D branding. The bike still packs a 398 cc engine and keeps its current price, so you get a fresh look without paying extra. It aims to beat rivals like the Hero Mavrick 440 and Honda H’ness CB 350 in the mid‑range segment. Swing by a showroom to see the new palettes in person – they really pop under showroom lighting.
Honda NX200 entered the Indian market at Rs 1,68,499. This 184.4 cc bike targets city riders who want a mix of commuter comfort and light‑adventure capability. Highlights include a TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity and dual‑channel ABS for safer braking. The design is sharper than previous Honda models, and you’ll only find it at BigWing dealerships. If you need a reliable daily rider with a tech edge, the NX200 deserves a look.
When you step into an automotive showroom, start by checking the spec sheet against your real‑world needs. For EVs, ask about actual on‑road range, warranty on the battery, and the availability of fast‑charging stations nearby. For motorcycles, focus on seat comfort, fuel efficiency, and any built‑in tech like Bluetooth or navigation.
Don’t forget to ask for a test ride. Even a short spin can reveal if the bike’s ergonomics suit your riding style or if the SUV’s cabin feels spacious enough for your family. Showroom staff are trained to highlight key features, but they’ll also appreciate specific questions – it shows you’re serious about buying.
Pricing in India can vary by state due to taxes and dealer incentives. Make sure the quoted price includes all on‑road costs – registration, insurance, and any optional accessories. Some showrooms run limited‑time offers like free fast‑charge installation for EVs or complimentary service packages for motorcycles.
If you’re eyeing an electric vehicle, ask about home‑charging kits. Many dealers partner with local installers to give you a discounted package, which can save you money and hassle later. Also, verify the service network – you’ll want a trusted centre nearby for routine maintenance.
Finally, compare a few showrooms before making a decision. Brands often have multiple outlets in a city, and pricing, stock availability, and after‑sales support can differ. A quick call or web check can help you spot the best deal without spending hours on the road.
Whether you’re after Toyota’s first electric SUV, a newly styled Triumph bike, or Honda’s tech‑packed NX200, India’s automotive showrooms are chock‑full of options. Use the tips above, ask the right questions, and you’ll drive or ride away with confidence.
