It is no wonder that Honda Activa leads the two-wheeler pack in India every month in the sales chart. In April 2017 too, top two positions in the list are held by Honda Activa and Hero Splendor. But a very interesting fact is that the Honda CB Shine has come up after beating the Hero Passion.
With the commuter bikes dominating the Indian two-wheeler market, Honda CB Shine has sold 1,00,824 units in April this year compared to 66,691 units in the same month last year, when the bike was positioned at the 7th position in the top 10 list. In April this year, the bike is positioned at the fourth place, which means this model has registered 51% sales growth in year to year sales record.
