The next quarter and coming months will be interesting to see how Suzuki's new models fare in the market, in the middle of a slowing market. By April 2020, all two-wheelers will also need to make changes to meet the new Bharat Stage VI (BS-VI) emission regulations. While most two-wheelers will need to move to fuel-injected engines and be BS-6 ready, there is also expected to be a marginal cost increase across manufacturers and their products. That said, demand is expected to pick up in the third quarter of the current financial year, when the festive season kicks in, as well as renewed buying activity in anticipation of a price increase when the BS-VI norms come into effect from April 1, 2020.
