Today, Bajaj Auto will launch the all-new Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike in India. This is a historic moment for Bajaj Auto as the company is not only launching a CNG bike but India's first CNG bike. As such, here are the top 5 highlights of the new Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike.

Unique Design

The latest teaser images and spy shots reveal that the upcoming Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike to flaunt a unique design language consisting of a long seat and a small fuel tank. We expect this long seat to have been deliberately designed to house the CNG tank on the Bajaj Freedom 125.

Apart from this, the Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike is expected to feature round headlights for a neo-retro theme. Also, the model is expected to be offered in multiple shades and attractive body graphics.

Two Fuel Tanks

As mentioned, the Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike will come with a CNG tank, likely to be positioned under the seat. As such, the upcoming Bajaj Freedom 125 will feature not one but two fuel tanks - One for the CNG and the other one for the petrol.

Unbelievable Mileage

Thanks to its CNG-compatible powertrain, we expect the upcoming Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike to break all fuel efficiency records in India. Also, since CNG is a lot cheaper than petrol, we expect this model to have unbelievable running costs.

Unique Powertrain

The Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike will be powered by a CNG-compatible engine (the first CNG bike in India). Also, this 125cc, single-cylinder engine is most likely to sport a 2-valve setup to reduce manufacturing cost and aid low-end torque.

That being said, this engine in the Freedom 125 is likely to produce a maximum power of 12 to 13bhp. However, we expect peak power to drop to 10 to 11.5bhp while in CNG mode. Also, we expect Bajaj to equip the model with a 5-speed gearbox with a tall 5th gear.

Aggressive Pricing Strategy

Bajaj is known to aggressively price its products. As such, we also expect the upcoming Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG bike to carry an aggressive price tag. In fact, we expect Bajaj to price the Freedom 125 just under Rs 1 lakh.
