AUSTRALIA
The quest for power, the chase of perfection, and the need to lead and to stay in front of everyone is what results in the birth of these machines. And that very quest for power is what led to the creation of xBhp PowerTour. In simple terms, we go around the world riding and driving some of the best examples of automotive excellence. Sounds simple enough? Well, it quite isn’t.
After the previous iterations were spent chasing outright power, we realized said power is more than just numbers and brake horsepower. The idea of power takes various forms. The Bajaj Pulsar is powerful in the sense that it had the power and audacity to give birth to the idea of xBhp. The TVS Apache is powerful because it stood up to the monopoly of Pulsars and stood atop it a fair few times. An electric scooter is powerful because it holds the power to push the automotive world towards a new future.
That said, more bhp equals a part of xBhp PowerTour was not the right way to go about it anymore. As such, xBhp PowerTour 2023 is going to bring in machines that have the power to defy the idea of power… the power to transcend it altogether. With that, our trip begins and the first stop is Australia!
