“The Dominar is the best and biggest bike ever from our stable and we are entering a price segment of Rs 1-2 lakh which has a leader (Royal Enfield) with 80 per cent market share,” Bajaj Auto Managing Director Rajiv Bajaj told reporters.


Spelling out ambitious targets for the new model, he said, “We are targeting about 20 per cent of the segment and if achieve that the Dominar will be a USD 1 billion brand in the next 12-18 months.”

 

Bajaj further said that the segment, currently dominated by Royal Enfield, is clocking around 65,000 to 75,000 units a month. “In 2017, this will be a million units a year segment.” Initially the company is looking at selling around 10,000 units in the domestic market even as it will start exporting the new product to the global markets from February 2017, he added.
