Maximizing Fuel Efficiency with Bajaj CNG Freedom 125

Bajaj's Cng Freedom 125

Although multiple options were available, there is a reason why the name Freedom 125 was chosen for the world's first CNG hybrid motorcycle.

Bajaj recently launched their first CNG bike, the Freedom 125. At the launch event, Rajeev Bajaj shared details about the bike during his keynote address. He describes the company's journey so far and why the CNG bike is a major milestone. Rajeev also spoke about the various aspects of freedom that this motorcycle offers to its riders and other stakeholders.

Relief from petrol imports, emissions and high prices

With a vast majority of the population in India using two-wheelers, petrol consumption is high. Most of the petrol is imported, which is a huge financial burden. Dependence on oil-producing countries increases, which presents geopolitical risks. The Bajaj CNG bike could help reduce the petrol import bill, assuming it registers strong sales.

The environmental impact will be reduced, as Bajaj CNG bikes have lower emissions than petrol commuter bikes. Users can switch over to CNG and get relief from the high cost of petrol. Dual-fuel capability ensures that riders can better manage their fuel consumption.

Free from range worries and charging worries

While electric two-wheelers, including the Bajaj Chetak, are registering strong sales, issues like range concerns and charging concerns have not completely gone away. The Bajaj Freedom dual-fuel CNG bike doesn't have to face such hurdles. If CNG is not easily available nearby, users can easily switch to petrol. A dual-fuel option ensures a smooth and worry-free riding experience.

Freedom from carrying babies

Rajeev talks about how commuter motorcycle users often have to carry their children on their laps. This is due to the small seat size of entry-level commuter bikes. Bajaj CNG bikes have an extra long seat, which means that children cannot be carried on the lap. While two-wheelers legally support only the rider and pillion, Rajeev said practical requirements are also relevant. The Freedom 125 CNG motorcycle offers a safe and comfortable family travel experience.

Get rid of annoying design and uncomfortable ride

The Bajaj Freedom 125 CNG has an exciting design, quite different from the conventional looks of commuter motorcycles. Modern and dynamic aesthetics will appeal to style-conscious users. Another key highlight is a unique monolink suspension, a first-in-class feature. This improved suspension system absorbs shock and vibration more effectively. Users can expect a smooth ride across both city streets and rough terrain.

Freedom to exercise every people right to clean air

Bajaj CNG bikes aim to ensure clean air for future generations.

Rajeev said that if all stakeholders work together, a dramatic change can be achieved in the automotive space. The transition from petrol and diesel to cleaner fuel options such as CNG and electric can be done much faster. This will ensure that every people can enjoy the right to clean air.
