Another leading international brand is entering the Indian two-wheeler market. Italian premium scooter manufacturer Italjet will soon start its operations in India. For this, it has announced a partnership with Kolhapur-based Motohaus India. Motohaus India is already distributing Brixton motorcycles and VLF (Velocipher) scooters in the country. In this context, the arrival of Italjet will further increase competition in the premium scooter segment.

Based in Bologna, Italy, Italjet is known worldwide for its unusual designs and high-performance scooters. In particular, the "Dragster" series of scooters offered by this company is attracting vehicle enthusiasts with their radical look. Which models will be launched in India, their prices and launch details will be officially revealed at the EICMA 2026 motor show to be held in Milan next month.

The Italjet lineup includes scooters ranging from Dragster 125 to 700 cc. The most powerful of these, the Dragster 700 model, comes with a 698cc liquid-cooled twin-cylinder engine. It produces 69 hp of power. It is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox. However, industry sources predict that the Dragster 125 and Dragster 300 models are more likely to be introduced in the Indian market. 

These scooters come with unique features like underbone chassis, unique front suspension, brand-patented Independent Steering System (ISS), and a visible trellis frame. With the arrival of the Italjet, a new and different option will be available to Indian customers in the premium scooter segment.
