Mahindra recently acquired controlling stakes in Classic Legends, who have penned down an exclusive brand license deal with Czechoslovakian motorcycle manufacturer Jawa. It has plans to sell Jawa motorcycles in India and also in parts of South East Asia. Mahindra will look to target the niche segment of the society and even launch separate brand stores exclusively for Jawa bikes. The production of the Jawa bikes will take place at Mahindra’s Pithampur plant in Madhya Pradesh, the work for which is already underway.
