Kawasaki sells over 3115 units from April 2018 to March 2019

The Japanese premium motorcycle brand Kawasaki gets separated from Bajaj auto in the second half of 2017. It was a big setback for Kawasaki as they were only left with very few dealerships from a massive number of stores which they had when they were in partnership with Bajaj. Moreover, they moved out of Bajaj's production plant and set up their own facility at Chakan. So, the fiscal year 2017-2018 was the year for Kawasaki to establish its own identity. Afterwards, the brand quickly expands its dealership network and covers the metro cities of India.
