As part of the Live Commerce event, Flipkart will make available a range of two-wheelers from brands including Ampere, Bounce, BGauss and Hero, where the hosts will showcase their features and talk about the evolving two-wheeler space. The event will also mark the launch of Hero XTreme 160R Stealth 2.0, in one of the first virtual launches of a two-wheeler in the country.
Rakesh Krishnan, Senior Director, Two-wheelers, Automobile, and Electronics at Flipkart, said, “The Indian two-wheeler industry is at the cusp of a revolution with e-commerce offering new avenues to millions of customers to own a two-wheeler in a seamless and affordable manner.
