• Pros & Cons

  Pros	Extremely reliable & fuel-efficient engine Addition of connected tech is very helpful Strong aftermarket support, cheap spare costs Easy to maintain & long-lasting setup	World’s first CNG-powered commuter motorcycle Offers a combined range of 330 km, 200km in CNG and 130 km in petrol mode Affordable pricing with a starting price of Rs 95,000 (ex-showroom) Gets a dedicated CNG & Petrol switchover button, and can be switched between petrol and CNG on the go It offers the longest seat in the segment with 785 mm length Available in three variants and multiple dual-tone colour options Gone through 11 safety tests to ensure the safety of the CNG cylinder and overall motorcycle Bajaj’s widespread sales and service network
  Cons	Same old boring design Lack of disc brakes is a concern No updates in the engine at all	Design is subjective and may not appeal to everyone Long queues on CNG pumps will result in long wait while refilling the CNG tank The 2 kg CNG and 2-litre petrol capacity is a bit less The base variant misses on LED lighting and disc brake The speedometer console is small in size
