New Bajaj Avenger Range Launched; Prices Start at Rs. 75,000

Although there is currently no competition to the Bajaj Avenger in India, and the company thought it best to give it a sort of makeover. The company has already updated the Platina, Discover and Pulsar marquees and with the festive season around the corner, the updated Avengers was the way to go.

Bajaj has kept the basic design of the Avenger unchanged and new one is now available in two variants - Street and Cruise. The Street variant sees additions in the form of an all- black paint scheme with red highlights, mag wheels, black exhaust, black painted engine, new grab rail, new instrument cluster and much more.

Now these changes might remind you of the Harley Street 750 but we guess that was the idea. The 220cc Bajaj Avenger is capable of putting out 18bhp and developing 17.5Nm of torque. The 220 Cruise comes with a bit more chrome on it and the headlamps, side grabs and a handlebar are all dipped in it.

The surprise that Bajaj brought to the table is the Avenger 150cc and it will be available only in the Street variant. This 150cc unit has been borrowed from the old Pulsar 150 with power figures around 13bhp and a maximum torque of 12.5 Nm. The bike will boast of 10% better torque at low to mid range when compared to the same engine on the Pulsar. Bajaj also promises improved NVH characteristics with a new silencer and an exhaust note to make it fit the cruiser characteristic bill.
