The company plans to launch 2 new models in the coming two quarters in Kenya. The bikes will be specially built for Kenyan customers according to their riding culture in the new production house in Kenya.



"We have reaffirmed our commitment to the Kenyan customer with the dedication of an assembly line through which we will roll out products that are tailor-made for this region. We have just completed our trial and training period and will commence regular production of our TVS StaR Series of motorcycles from Tuesday.

Presently TVS is selling motorcycles under Star Series in Kenya. In order to practice the production of new bikes, mechanics were gone under special trainees. The company says that the new models will be fuel efficient, and very much affordable. However, the firm denied to reply what capacity engines were powering the two new models. Anyway, it's for sure that the one model will be powered either by a 100cc or a 110cc engine.

We have more than 75 dealers, 300 service points and around 2500 trained mechanics across Kenya.
