The Indian cruiser motorcycle space continues to see steady activity, and the latest entrant to receive an update is the QJ Motor SRV 300. Introduced by QJ Motor India, the refreshed model focuses on visual and feature enhancements while keeping its underlying mechanical package unchanged. The update comes shortly after the launch of the Keeway V302C, with both brands operating under the Adishwar Auto Ride India umbrella.
Cosmetic changes take centre stage
The most noticeable updates on the new SRV 300 are in its design. The motorcycle now features a revised dual exhaust setup, which enhances its road presence and gives it a more pronounced cruiser character. Alongside this, QJ Motor has introduced refreshed decals and new colour options, including Glossy Red and Matte Black, aimed at appealing to buyers looking for a more distinctive visual identity.
Another key addition is an updated digital instrument cluster. While the changes are not radical, they bring a more contemporary interface, aligning the bike with evolving expectations around connectivity and rider information.
V-twin engine remains the highlight
Under the skin, the motorcycle continues with the same 296cc V-twin engine, producing 30.3 horsepower and 26 Nm of torque. This configuration remains relatively rare in the entry-level cruiser segment, where single-cylinder engines dominate.
The V-twin layout gives the QJ Motor SRV 300 a unique positioning, offering smoother power delivery and a more refined riding experience compared to its rivals. For enthusiasts seeking a different engine character without stepping into significantly higher price brackets, this remains a key selling point.

Pricing places it in a competitive spot
Priced at Rs 3.29 lakh ex-showroom, the updated SRV 300 sits slightly higher than its earlier reduced price but closer to its original launch positioning. The adjustment reflects both the added features and broader market dynamics.
Within this price band, the motorcycle faces competition from other entry-level cruisers, but its V-twin engine and refreshed styling help it stand apart. The update suggests a strategy focused on maintaining relevance through incremental improvements rather than a complete overhaul.
