These were the first Mahindra two-wheeler in India. In 2011, an upgrade to the Duro, the 125cc Duro DZ, was launched. This was also the year when MTWL became the first Indian company to compete in the FIM Moto3 Motorcycle Racing Championship, representing all Mahindra bikes in the two-wheeler industry on a global platform.
In 2013, after a successful run in the bikes segment, MTWL entered the commuter motorcycle segment with Centuro, the first Mahindra bike in India.
In 2014, MTWL acquired a 51% stake in Peugeot Motorcycles (PMTC), part of the 54 billion-euro Peugeot S.A. (PSA) Group based in France.

Shifting their focus from mass-market vehicles to niche products, the latest Mahindra bike to roll off the production line was the 300cc Mojo, marking the company’s debut in the sports-touring segment in India. In 2017, MTWL announced its withdrawal from the mass market two-wheeler segment, citing declining sales, tough competition and shifting focus to premium products as the key reasons behind this move. The Mahindra bikes India range consists of the Gusto 110, Gusto 125, Centuro NXT, Centuro Rockstar, Mojo UT 300 and the Mojo XT 300 which form the company’s 2018 product line-up.
