It was already on the high side of the pricing of the Stile. It would have been even more expensive as a CNG variant and therefore less appealing.

I think that it could have worked if marketed well. The CNG Stile could have been a good bet for Ashok Leyland to leverage its strong presence in the commercial vehicle sector.

Nevermind that the Stile was based on the Evalia, which also failed. The CNG option may not alone have saved it.

Would be electrification I’d say they need to go all in. An electric Stile with a decent range can be a game changer for intra city logistics or taxi service operations.

How about a modular interior? It would be unique in the segment for something that can be easily converted from passenger to cargo configuration.

Before anything else, they need to get their basics right – a better build quality, a reworked engine, and a reduction in NVH levels. Then combine with modern tech such as a huge touchscreen and connected car features.

Considering that Ashok Leyland specializes in commercial vehicles, they could be a USP for them to extend the warranty period and lower the maintenance cost. That would be attractive for fleet operators.

I would say they should put it in the position of a mini-ambulance or mobile clinic. Add the required medical equipment mounts and power outlets. It may be great for rural healthcare.

Can we make it into a mobile office? Add built in 4G hotspot, foldable tables and power outlets. Perfect for on-the-go professionals.
Does the NS160 live up to Bajaj's "Fastest Indian" legacy?

It's quick for a 160cc, but calling it the "Fastest Indian" is a stretch. It's more like "The Slightly Quicker Than Average Indian."

For its segment, it's pretty fast. You can't expect 220cc performance from a 160cc engine, but it holds its own against competitors.

The NS160 is more about handling than straight-line speed. It might not be the fastest, but it's definitely one of the most fun to ride in its class.

Bajaj's marketing is overselling it. It's a good bike, but it doesn't live up to the hype of being exceptionally fast.

In city traffic, it feels plenty fast. But on open roads, you start wishing for more power. It's fast-ish, not fastest.

The "Fastest Indian" legacy is more about the spirit than actual speed. In that sense, the NS160 delivers with its sporty feel and quick response.

Let's be real, no 160cc bike is going to be the "Fastest Indian." But for what it is, the NS160 is pretty nippy.
Can the Pulsar Adventure do the same for the Indian market?

I feel there is definitely a market for this. There are lots of people who want something more exciting than a basic commuter, but they’re intimidated by bigger ADVs.

It's a risky move. Indian buyers are pretty conservative. Maybe they’d rather play it safe and stick to what they know than gamble on an idea they know nothing about.
