Mahindra 2 wheelers took 80% of the stake over Kinetic Motor Company Ltd in the mid of 2008 and the company has been doing pretty well in its scooter segment. The company currently has 4 models in its scooters’ portfolio which are Rodeo, Duro, Flyte and Kine. Later in the mid of 2010, Mahindra 2 wheelers entered the motorbike segment with its Stallio bike endorsed by the Bollywood star Aamir Khan. Though the foray was smooth and timed right, the bike didn’t do well in the market.
The reasons for the unsuccessful debut of this bike are its technical problems which include a rough gearbox and too much of vibrations from the engine and a few other parts as well. So, Mahindra 2 wheelers has now decided to re-launch the Stallio again with all its problems duely recovered. It looks like the Stallio will be re-launched by the end of this year itself. The company has no intention of ceasing the production of this model and launch a replacement for the same.
