QJ Motor’s Plans For India
QJ Motor made its Indian debut this year. But the company is pretty much familiar with the market. This is because, Benelli, the Italian brand acquired by QJ Motor in 2005, has been in India for almost a decade. Under the tagline of an ‘Always Forward’ mindset, QJ Motor Co., Ltd. was conceived in 1985.
The two-wheeler maker specializes in R&D and manufacturing of motorcycles, engines, and components. The actual controlling shareholder of QJ Motor is Geely Holding Group, which is one of the top 500 enterprises in the world. QJ Motor has a reputation to manufacture models covering multiple displacement platforms from 110cc to 1200cc. The brand showcases a rich product line-up across motorcycling genres.
With the learnings gathered after acquiring brands like Benelli, the company has created a global name for itself in the world market. QJ is synonymous with high-quality, reliable products. The brand designs and engineers its products to cater to the evolving needs of Gen Z customers.
The brand is already making a strong impact in the European market. Now, QJ is fully determined to enter India. With its lineup of products that offer a perfect balance of design, engineering, and technology, QJ is aiming high in India. In the long run, the strategic tie-up with QJ Motor will also prove crucial in creating the desired impact. This will further strengthen AARI’s position in the premium two-wheeler space.
