[image http://imagecdn2.cartrade.com/img/500/cars/Honda-s-Metropolitan-based-electric-scooter-likely-to-be-a-popular-seller-in-Ind.jpg ] The two-wheeler division of Japanese automaker Honda has reportedly been performing exceptionally well in the Indian market for a couple of years now and its strategic prowess is among the primary reasons for the same. One thing that Honda has done brilliantly well while strategizing is entering the right segment at the right time. Now, according to a recent report by sources states that the firm is set to enter the electric scooter segment and has been developing a model based on the popular Metropolitan scooter. Metropolitan is a two-wheeler sold in several international markets and has done remarkably well over the years. The patent design of the scooter being developed by Honda is the only thing available at the moment and no specifics have been mentioned by Honda. However, Honda has pretty firm plans of making this segment its own in the Indian market and it made the announcement clearly in a recent press conference. Sources claim that this model is likely to be showcased at the 2016 Auto Expo, which will be held in India. The electric scooter segment is not really popular in the Indian market at present with Hero MotoCorp leading the segment. However, with Honda’s entry in the segment, things could become really interesting if the right models are introduced at good prices.
