Elaborating on this milestone, Mr. Yadvinder Singh Guleria, Senior Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Honda Motorcycle & Scooter India Pvt. Ltd., said,
“As a pioneer, Honda introduced the concept of Certified Pre-owned Outlets – Best Deal. This allows us to create more touch-points of interacting with customers and also tap into the huge potential that the pre-owned 2wheeler market offers. Our experience shows that the pre-owned industry is evolving very fast. The replacement cycle for 2wheeler has come down from 7-8 years to 3-5 years in a decade. With shrinking replacement cycle of the 2wheeler industry, Honda sees immense future potential in pre-owned 2wheeler retails and we are aggressively scaling up this business. We aim to double the Best Deal count to 200 outlets in the next 2 years.”
