We all know that Bajaj is gearing up to launch its first CNG motorcycle in the Indian market. Initially slated for launch on June 18, its release has now been postponed to July 17. This update comes directly from Rakesh Sharma, Executive Director of Bajaj Auto.
According to Sharma, the forthcoming CNG bike is designed to appeal to ‘cost-conscious’ buyers without compromising on aesthetics. He further elaborated that, although the bike will target the entry-level segment, it will also deliver a sense of ‘pride of ownership.’ While it’s not official, it is expected to be called “Fighter” or “Buzer”.
Bajaj’s CNG lineup won’t be limited to just one model. Multiple CNG models will be introduced in the future.

It is reported to deliver an exceptional range of approximately 100 kilometres when fed with CNG. Head here for more details.
Bajaj is likely to price its forthcoming CNG bike at approximately Rs 80,000 (ex-showroom). Upon its launch, this model is set to offer an eco-friendly and cost-efficient alternative, effectively bridging the gap between traditional petrol motorcycles and electric ones.
