One of the key factors that helped the motorcycle sell well in the Indian market was the fact that Bajaj used the steel from the INS Vikrant, India's first aircraft carrier battleship to make parts of the motorcycle. Another key factor is the pricing - Rs. 62,002 ex-showroom (Delhi), which is really affordable for a 150cc motorcycle.

Powering the Bajaj V15 is a 149.5cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that makes 11.8bhp and 13Nm of torque. The engine comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox.

Based on the success of the V15, Bajaj now has plans to make more powerful versions of the motorcycle, which will soon be launched in India.
