In an era where nostalgia sells and retro motorcycles are enjoying a golden resurgence, iconic heritage brands are making a powerful return to the spotlight. From Royal Enfield's ongoing success to BSA's revival under Classic Legends, the appetite for classic styling on motorcycles with modern underpinnings has never been stronger. Riding this wave, Norton Motorcycles, one of Britain's most storied names in motorcycling history, is now set to enter the Indian market—ushering in what it calls 'a new era.'advertisementNow, Norton, the iconic British brand under the stewardship of TVS Motor Company, is poised to join this retro renaissance as it prepares to enter the Indian market, marking a pivotal chapter in its recently dropped a teaser on its social media platforms, offering a glimpse of a sharply designed taillight with vertically stacked LED elements, hinting at a fresh yet evocative design direction.

Interestingly, TVS and Norton are also said to be developing a middleweight category model to take on the likes of Royal Enfield and Triumph in India.
