| SRC 500 | 2.79 lakh | 40,000 | 2.39 lakh |
| SRV 300 Cruiser | 3.59 lakh | 40,000 | 3.19 lakh |
Previously, certain colours would come at different prices across all models in QJ's Indian lineup. However, now, they've standardized the pricing for all colour options.
For those curious about whether the SRK 400's price has changed, it hasn't. The bike is still available at its original price of Rs 3.69 lakh. Interestingly, this price point is notably higher than the KTM 390 Duke, which is considered the benchmark in the segment and is priced at Rs 3.11 lakh.

Moving on to the SRC 250, it sports an Inline Twin-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, incorporating 4 valves and SOHC. Its 249cc displacement churns out a respectable 17.4Hp at 8000RPM and a torque of 17Nm at 6000RPM, managed by a 5-speed transmission. As the smallest offering from QJ in India, this little twin-cylinder retro takes aim squarely at the top variants of the popular Royal Enfield Hunter 350.
The SRV 300 comes packed with a V-Twin, liquid-cooled engine boasting 4 strokes, 8 valves, and SOHC technology. With a displacement of 296cc, it delivers a punchy 30.3Hp at 9000RPM and a torque of 26Nm at 5000RPM, all smoothly handled by its 6-speed transmission. This V-twin cruiser holds its ground admirably, putting it in close competition with the alloy wheel variant of the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650.
The SRC 500, on the other hand, features a Single-cylinder air-cooled engine with 2 valves and SOHC. Boasting a displacement of 480cc, it flexes its muscles with 25.5Hp at 5750RPM and a torque of 36Nm at 4250RPM, seamlessly handled by a 5-speed transmission. Positioned slightly above the Royal Enfield Meteor and on par with the KTM 250 Duke, the SRC 500 adds a robust contender to the mix.
Verdict
QJMotor's aggressive price reductions make its bikes more competitive in the Indian market, posing a serious challenge to established players like Royal Enfield and KTM. This move seems strategic, especially with the substantial cuts on models like SRC 250, SRC 500, and SRV 300.
