(1) respondents were from both ’28-32’,’Above 33’ age group.

The reason for 38% of respondents opting for four wheelers could be explained
by the fact that while travelling by two wheeler we are in contact with pollution

taken into account the rising traffic in the cities and to avoid that situation it is
better to ride in a two wheeler.

2. Results
After successful data analysis we came to draw some results to problem statement. This
step is very essential since our study demands for the factors which influences the
preference of youth towards two wheelers in Lovely Professional University, Phagwara.
After detailed study we came to know that there are five main factors which influences a
youth’s mind towards buying that particular two wheeler:
 Brand Name
 Mileage
 After Sale Services
 Advertisements
 Performance
Brand Name is a very important factor for a youth while purchasing a two wheeler. Most
of the youth in today’s scenario are more brand conscious. Two wheeler companies have
tried to make a good reputation for themselves through various endorsements to reality
shows which youth prefer to watch and ultimately get associated with that brand. Thus,
end up buying a two wheeler of the same brand. Brand equity which identifies a brand in
the market is very essential for company. The equity of a brand is important because, if the
brand has positive brand equity, the company can charge more for their products and
services than the products of other competitors.
Mileage is very vital factor which influences youth towards buying a particular two
wheeler. Youth especially are very considerate about the mileage because majority of them
are dependent on their parents for monetary support. Moreover, the prices of fuel is day by
day increasing. This makes mileage an important factor while buying a two wheeler. There
are many other factors that affect the mileage of a two wheeler like tire air pressure,
aerodynamics or body design, engine condition and typid are some of the factors which
affect mileage of a two wheeler.
After Sale Service provided by a two wheeler company can potentially seem to attract the
youth of Lovely Professional University. After-sales service which is a part of customer
relationship management (CRM) helps to enhance a customer’s loyalty. After sale services
usually turn happy customers into repeat customers therefore, this factor is very essential
for influencing the buying preference of youth in Lovely Professional University.

23 | P a g e
Advertisements play an important role in changing the preference of youth towards two
wheelers. According to our study, it can stated that advertisements through Television is
the most effective mode of advertisement and the second most effective mode of
advertising is through Social media.
Performance is important with respect to two wheelers since this the core factor which an
individual looks for in a two wheeler. The engine performance and horsepower of the two
wheeler. According to our study in 100-120cc segment Hero Splendor was the most
preferred two wheeler by the respondents. While in above 150cc segment Royal Enfield
Bullet is the most preferred two wheeler by the respondents

It can be seen that, during our study we found out that there is tremendous scope foe electric
two wheeler in India. As majority of the respondents were looking for an alternate fuel
rather than traditional petrol.

3. Recommendations
The economic growth and the need for better conveyance lead to gradually improving of
road infrastructure coupled with better credit and financing options, have acted as a major
catalyst in encouraging the growth and development of the two wheeler segment in India.
Further, the new and improved features on the two wheelers their stylish and trendy looks
and a rage with the country's youth who form a substantial influence in determining the
consumer behavior have ensured that the two wheelers remain on top of the automobile
industry's agenda in India.
It is also recommendable to introduce such two wheelers that would make it easy to be
used in rural kacha (gravel) roads keeping in mind the rural market of two wheeler industry
and with understanding of their income level.
So that it enables them to buy two wheelers and that would be affordable for them just like
four wheelers.
Usage of ‘Nano Technology’ is made keeping in mind that every class of society should
have an easy access to purchase vehicles in general. The similar concept is to be taken
while launching new two wheelers that should be in range of every class of society.

24 | P a g e
The launching of electric two wheelers can improve the nation’s environmental conditions
since this two wheeler would be using clean energy and will be pollution free. Such a move
by two wheeler companies can help they tap a market which earlier preferred cycles
keeping in mind that these two wheelers would be comparatively cheaper than the other
two wheelers which runs on petrol.

4. Conclusion
Understanding youth’s behavior in the present scenario is extremely important as it is no
longer a simple task. Now the youth or consumer is considered to be the King. He is the
price-maker and not price-taker. Earlier, there used to be a few two wheeler manufacturers
who held a monopoly. However, this situation has changed with the entry of other
competitors, especially after liberalization and globalization.
The foreign collaboration saw production going up tremendously due to the availability of
many alternative choices, consumer preferences and needs changed. Suddenly, the buyer
came into focus. Hence, this study made an attempt to know the factors which influences
youth into buying a two wheeler.
The study was conducted by using the survey method. The study revealed that youth’s
preference and ownership pattern and the sources of information they used to make the
purchase decision, and importance given to various evaluation criteria.

Hero, Honda, TVS Motor, Yamaha Motor, Royal Enfield and others. The two wheeler
segment has played an important role in giving a push to the automobile industry in India.
In fact, the production, sales and exports of the two wheelers is a fair indication of the
growing importance that it enjoys in this country's manufacturing economy. An overview
