<h2>Bajaj Freedom 125: Specifications</h2>

<p>The Bajaj&nbsp;Freedom 125 gets a&nbsp;distinctive, high-end-looking design with&nbsp;braced handlebars, an&nbsp;exposed trellis frame, and forks with fork sleeves. It has the&nbsp;longest seat in the market (785mm) and&nbsp;segment-first linked monoshock. Powering the bike is a new&nbsp;125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder 'sloper' engine, which can run on either the CNG or the petrol model at the flick of a switch.</p>

<p>The engine churns out 9bhp and 9.7Nm of peak torque when mated to a 5-speed gearbox.&nbsp;The rider can easily switch between a 2kg CNG tank and a 2-litre petrol tank through a handlebar-mounted switch. With both CNG and petrol combined, the CNG bike offers&nbsp;a&nbsp;claimed range of 330km.

The last 637 units were sold in a matter of just 4 days this month, up from 4,109 units delivered in August. This is attributed to the fact that <a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/bajaj/">Bajaj</a> had expanded the Freedom 125's sales network to&nbsp;77 towns and cities across India by August 15, including Delhi and Kerala.

<p>Powering the CNG bike is a&nbsp;125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, which can run on either the CNG or the petrol model at the flick of a switch. The engine churns out 9bhp and 9.7Nm of peak torque when mated to a 5-speed gearbox.&nbsp;The claimed mileage on CNG is 102km/kg, while the petrol version returns a 65km/l claimed mileage, while the top is rated at 90.5km/h on CNG. The petrol version has a top speed of 93.4km/h (claimed).&nbsp;</p>

<p>Chassis-wise, the&nbsp;Freedom 125 features&nbsp;a tubular&nbsp;trellis frame, which also doubles as a protective cage around the CNG tank. For suspension, the bike uses a telescopic front fork and a linked rear&nbsp;monoshock, while the braking setup comprises drum brakes at both ends. The top-spec variant, however, comes with a disc brake at the front.&nbsp;The Bajaj Freedom 125 is the latest&nbsp;entrant in the commuter class, with an LED headlamp (in the top-spec variant),&nbsp;a 785mm-long single-piece seat&nbsp;(longest in the segment), mid-set footpegs, an upswept exhaust, and braced handlebars.

Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG Crosses 5,000 Unit Sales Milestone in 2 Months

The last 637 units of the Bajaj Freedom 125 were sold in just 4 days of September 2024, up from 4,109 units delivered in August.

<p>Bajaj Auto launched its&nbsp;first mass-market CNG bike last month in India – the Freedom 125. With bookings underway pan India, Bajaj plans to expand the CNG bike's reach by making it available in 77 Indian cities&nbsp;by August 15, 2024, India's 78th Independence Day.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Priced from Rs&nbsp;95,000 to Rs 1.10 lakh (ex-showroom), the Bajaj Freedom 125 currently&nbsp;comes in three variants: Drum, Drum LED, and Disc LED. That much was already known, but a test mule of what appears to be a more affordable version of the CNG bike has been spied testing in India&nbsp;and, unlike the Freedom 125, the more affordable motorcycle could target the 100cc commuter segment.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Considering that, expect the more affordable variant of the Freedom CNG to have a&nbsp;sloper-style, smaller-capacity&nbsp;single-cylinder engine compared to the existing Freedom, which uses a 125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. The 125cc engine develops&nbsp;9.3bhp at 8,000rpm and 9.7Nm of torque at 6,000rpm while being hooked up to&nbsp;a five-speed gearbox. Other components including the&nbsp;main frame and 2-litre CNG tank are&nbsp;expected to be carried over.</p>

<h2>More Affordable Bajaj Freedom CNG: What Spy Shots Reveal?</h2>

<p>Front the front,&nbsp;the more affordable Bajaj Freedom CNG could differ from the Freedom 125&nbsp;– smaller fork sleeve protectors, a halogen headlamp, and a simpler mudguard design. As part of cost-cutting measures, the front fender has a single-tone colour rather than a dual-tone finish, while the&nbsp;test mule lacks the noticeable cowl around the telescopic fork found on the Freedom 125.&nbsp;</p>

<p>At the rear, the upcoming&nbsp;bike could feature&nbsp;a silver-finished grab handle as well as&nbsp;a longer tyre hugger to protect&nbsp;from rainwater&nbsp;spray. And finally, the exhaust heat shield should be finished in chrome.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Being the more affordable variant, it should offer a basic instrument cluster (LCD) without Bluetooth support. Braking duties are expected to be carried out by drum brakes at both ends. The launch date is under wraps, but expect the more affordable Freedom CNG bike to be launched in the coming months.&nbsp;</p>

More Affordable Bajaj Freedom CNG Variant Spotted Testing in India

Bajaj Freedom CNG Variant has been spied testing in India. The more affordable Freedom CNG Variant is expected to bear some styling differences - smaller fork sleeve protectors, a conventional halogen headlamp, and a simpler mudguard design, among other things.

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/bajaj/">Bajaj Auto</a>, which originally&nbsp;opened bookings for the Freedom CNG only in Maharashtra and Gujarat, has started accepting reservations for the model across India. The booking amount is set at Rs 1,000. While the exact reason behind this is not known, this could be due to overwhelming consumer interest in the Freedom 125 CNG, which, according to Bajaj, offers a reduction in operating costs by up to 50 percent&nbsp;and a greener ride (26.7 percent&nbsp;less carbon dioxide&nbsp;compared to similar petrol counterparts).&nbsp;</p>

<p>Deliveries of the&nbsp;Bajaj Freedom 125 have also begun in India. The first unit went to a buyer in Pune, with other regions to&nbsp;follow later. Priced from Rs&nbsp;95,000 to Rs 1.10 lakh (ex-showroom), the Freedom 125 is the world's first mass-market CNG bike with a&nbsp;125cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine, which can run on either the CNG or the petrol model at the flick of a switch. The claimed mileage on CNG is 102km/kg, while the petrol version returns a 65km/l claimed mileage.&nbsp;</p>

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-bikes/bajaj/">Bajaj Auto</a> has launched the Freedom 125, the first-ever bike&nbsp;powered by&nbsp;compressed natural gas (CNG). The model is available for purchase at an ex-showroom starting price of Rs 95,000.&nbsp;Compared to a two-wheeler propelled by&nbsp;petrol, the bike's running expenses are substantially lower because CNG primarily powers it. Bajaj has given the Freedom 125&nbsp;a distinctive, high-end-looking design&nbsp;featuring braced handlebars, an&nbsp;exposed trellis frame, and forks with fork sleeves.</p>

<p>Among the bike's&nbsp;many noteworthy features are the longest seat in the market (785mm) and the segment-first linked monoshock.

<h2>Bajaj Freedom 125: Design</h2>

<p>The Bajaj Freedom boasts modern lighting with a round LED headlight and sharp DRLs. It has regular turn signals, hand protectors, and a switch to easily switch between petrol and CNG fuel. It also comes with stylish aluminium tank covers, a digital dashboard with Bluetooth connectivity, a raised exhaust, and a light to show when you're in neutral gear.</p>

<p>For handling, the CNG Bajaj uses telescopic forks in the front and a single shock in the back. The brakes are likely a disc brake up front and a drum brake in the rear, all on what are probably 17-inch alloy wheels.&nbsp;It also comes equipped with a single-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS).</p>

<h2>Bajaj Freedom 125: Engine</h2>

<p>Regarding the engine, Bajaj employs a horizontal&nbsp;layout engine design to accommodate both CNG and petrol tanks, optimizing space for all fuel systems and other ancillaries. The bike is powered by a 125cc engine producing 9.3bhp and 9.7Nm of torque, paired with an 5-speed gearbox. The 2kg CNG cylinder is securely positioned under the bike's flat seat, held by a tubular steel cradle frame.</p>
