Honda Brings In Premium Big Bike Retail Experience To India

Honda has launched its first BigWing dealership in Gurugram in India. Earlier this year, Honda had announced that they would be expanding their big bike portfolio in India under the Silver Wing brand. The BigWing dealership will be Honda’s one-stop shop for sales and service of its big bikes. Honda has done this to give their potential and existing big bike customers a premium personalised experience, something along the lines of the Maruti Suzuki Nexa experience. The showroom will display the complete Honda India big bike lineup and also serve as an event area for delivering motorcycles with a personalised touch.
