Bajaj has also seen strong demand in Latin America, with Brazil retail volumes rising 50 percent in Q1.

TVS exported 85,898 more 125cc motorcycles than Bajaj during the period.

India’s motorcycle exports could cross 5 million

India exported a record 4.47 million motorcycles in FY2026. The 1.81 million units shipped in the first four months of FY2027 already represent 40.5 percent of that figure.

At the current monthly run rate of around 4.53 lakh motorcycles, India could export approximately 5.44 million motorcycles in FY2027, taking annual exports beyond the 5-million mark for the first time.
