3. MarketOverview
Vietnam has been well-known as a "kingdom of motorbike" with over 45 million motorcycles. Last
year, several new motorbike models have been introduced: 14 (Honda); 13 (Yamaha & SYM,
respectively); 9 (Piaggio); and 6 (Suzuki).
However, Janus, introduced by Yamaha in August of 2016, is an exception. Possessing better
configuration, Janus has declared “war” against other small scooter models and set a newly more
premium standard for this often overlooked segment of small-sized scooter.
