Bajaj CNG Bike: Technical and Hardware Details 

The mechanical details of the upcoming bike are currently unknown, but industry reports indicate that the Chakan-based automaker may use CNG technology with engine capacities of 110cc or 125cc. To perform on par with a 110cc petrol model, we expect the CNG bike to feature a 125cc engine. This is because CNG-powered vehicles often possess lower power than their petrol-based counterparts.

The bike will likely feature a CNG cylinder under the long, flat single-piece seat and an additional fuel tank that can be utilized in case the CNG runs out. Its suspension system may include a telescopic fork, a monoshock, a front disc brake, and a rear drum brake.

Bajaj CNG Bike: Price and Competitors 

The Bajaj CNG bike will go on sale in India on June 18, with an expected price tag of Rs 80,000 for the base model. The more rugged variant may cost Rs 8,000 more than the standard version. The bike will compete in the segment against the Hero Splendor Plus, TVS Radeon, Honda Shine 100, and Bajaj Platina 110, but it won't have any direct rivals.
