The Auto Premier League is a first-of-its-kind awards platform for the best bikes and cars purely decided by audience votes. The knockout-style league sees contenders getting eliminated one by one until a winner emerges. The first elimination round has concluded and your votes are in but it is not over yet. Round two starts on June 10, so don’t forget to cast your vote again and make your favourite two-wheeler move ahead. Here are the winners of round one:
You can check out the Auto Premier League Status here:
Scooter of the Year:
Honda Activa 6G vs TVS Jupiter:
The Honda Activa 6G remains India’s favourite scooter and it was no surprise to see it easily win this round.
Honda Dio vs Yamaha Fascino 125:
The Honda Dio, which has been a favourite among college-goers, took a clear lead against the Fascino.
Honda Activa 125 vs Suzuki Access 125:
the automobile community
Despite being the best-selling scooter for a long time, the Access lost out to the new Honda Activa 125.
TVS NTorq 125 vs Aprilia SR 160:
The TVS NTorq 125 got a much-deserved win thanks to its brilliant blend of features and performance.
Commuter of the Year (up to 110cc)
Hero Splendor Plus vs TVS Star City +:
The Hero Splendor Plus claimed an easy win thanks to its solid reputation built on reliability and fuel-efficiency.
Bajaj CT 100 vs TVS XL 100:
While the TVS XL 100 has its merits, the Bajaj CT 100 is more widely accepted and found favour among our voters too.
TVS Radeon vs Hero Splendor iSmart:
Despite the Radeon impressing with its performance and ride quality, voters preferred the Hero Splendor iSmart.
Bajaj Platina H-Gear vs Hero Passion Pro:
This was another unexpected result but voters seem to prefer the Hero Passion Pro over the better-equipped Platina H-gear.
Commuter of the Year (up to 160cc)
Honda Unicorn vs Bajaj Pulsar 150:
With both being enthusiast favourites, this was a closely fought battle. It appears that enthusiasts like the Bajaj Pulsar 150 a little more though.
TVS Apache RTR 160 2V vs Bajaj Avenger 160:
Like the Pulsar, the TVS Apache RTR 160 2V has a cult following and easily won this round.
Hero Super Splendor vs Honda Shine:
The Splendor name never really rubbed on the Super Splendor and it never became as popular as its other namesakes. The Honda Shine’s reputation as a reliable 125cc motorcycle helped it easily win this round.
Bajaj Pulsar 125 vs Hero Glamour:
The baby Pulsar 125 has been a hit since its launch and was a shoo-in against the 125cc Glamour.
Executive Bike of the Year (up to 200cc)
TVS Apache RTR 160 4V vs Bajaj Pulsar NS160:
The TVS Apache RTR 160 4V impresses with its all-round performance and features, and claims a much-deserved win.
Yamaha MT-15 vs Hero Xtreme 200S:
The MT-15 proves that you can get premium performance from a small-capacity bike as well. Our audience agrees by picking the Yamaha MT-15 over the larger capacity Xtreme 200S.
Bajaj Pulsar 180F vs TVS Apache RTR 180:
We were counting on the faired Pulsar 180 to win this round but it appears that enthusiasts prefer the TVS Apache RTR 180.
Yamaha FZ v3.0 vs Suzuki Gixxer:
This was another surprise as we expected the more powerful Gixxer to win this round, but we think the Yamaha FZ V3’s solid reputation and practicality helped it come out on top.
Performance Bike of the Year:
RE Classic 350 vs Jawa:
This was a close fight for a little while, but it seems there are still more Royal Enfield fans as compared to Jawa fans who came here to vote taking the Classic 350 to the victory line.
TVS Apache RTR 200 vs KTM 200 Duke:
The KTM’s newest update helped the good-looking bike find favour among enthusiasts and helped the 200 Duke win over the Apache RTR 200.
Suzuki Gixxer 250 vs Bajaj Dominar 250:
Despite the Bajaj Dominar 250 being a brand new bike in our market, the idea of a 250cc sports tourer with the Dominar 400’s bodywork seemed to be quite appealing to enthusiasts, helping the bike emerge victorious with much ease.
Kawasaki Ninja 300 vs Honda CB300R:
The Kawasaki Ninja 300 has always had aspirational value and with the price cut, it has become more accessible to enthusiasts. These brownie points helped the faired motorcycle win over the naked CBS300R.
Premium Bike of the Year:
RE Interceptor 650 vs Kawasaki Z650:
The Royal Enfield Interceptor 650’s value and charm made it a no-brainer, right?
Honda CBR650R vs Kawasaki Ninja 650:
We thought the in-line four powered CBR would win against the parallel-twin Ninja but it appears that Indian enthusiasts prefer value over performance. So it was the Kawasaki Ninja 650 which took the lead.
Ducati Panigale V4 vs BMW S1000RR:
The BMW S1000RR has got a complete makeover and is quite capable but it doesn’t stand a chance against the gorgeous Ducati Panigale V4’s performance and desirability.
Honda Africa Twin CRF1100L vs Triumph Tiger 900:
While we, at ZigWheels, love the Africa Twin, there’s no denying that the Triumph Tiger 900 has much better brand recognition among our readers. So the Brits trumped the Japanese here.
If you didn’t vote in the first round, don’t worry. You can still vote for the second round that sees four wildcard entries and two new categories: ADV Bike of the Year and Electric Two-wheeler of the Year.
