Important news for BS4 Bike Buyers
As per the rule, the manufacturers made sure that all new models launched after April 2016 were BS4 compliant, which means they had the know-how and time to tweak the existing models too to be BSIV-ready over the next one year if not right then in 2016. But hey, this is India, even if we are a multinational, multi-billion corporation, we do things only in the last minute.
This was supposed to be a seamless transition not even significant of making the news all of a sudden. Over the whole year, one by one, the models could’ve been upgraded and batches of them could’ve been sent to dealerships without waiting for the very last day. Some automakers did do that. But most of them haven’t. We have heard that a lot of dealers are still waiting for the new batch of vehicles, like the ATMs that waited for the new currency, as if the BSIV norm was announced just yesterday.
