The production line at the Chakan plant is where KTM (125 cm³ to 390 cm³) and Husqvarna (125 cm³ to 401 cm³) motorcycles have been co-developed and produced for global sales since 2011. 

ā€œWhen we sealed our partnership in 2007, we set ourselves the goal of developing innovations as a strategic partner in order to make the KTM brands known worldwide. One million has been reached. There will be many more to come,ā€ Bajaj emphasizes.
