These motorcycles will be manufactured in Uttarakhand at Lohia Auto's facility. They will have a decent production output of 1,00,000 units per year, which seems to be adequate initially.

UM Motorcycles will be developing 300 to 400cc engines for their Renegade series. They will be competing head on with India's most trusted brand for cruiser motorcycles, Royal Enfield.

They will now have to focus on setting up their dealerships and service outlets to cater to demands. UM Motorcycles will have a tough time, however, pricing will be key in their success.
