Does the Bajaj Platina 125 live up to Bajaj's claimed real world fuel efficiency?
The Platina 125 is advertised by Bajaj to be one of the most fuel efficient 125cc motorcycles in India and claims a very impressive fuel efficiency figure. While fuel efficiency claims by manufacturers can differ significantly from real world results, there is much discussion among owners and potential buyers. The actual mileage a bike will do is dependent on a lot of factors including riding style, traffic condition, maintenance, even climate. Some riders find their real world efficiency falling a lot short of Bajaj's claimed figures, while some others report getting close to or even better than those figures. The debate surrounding this topic revolves around how the motorcycles are tested by manufacturers to determine official mileage figures, and whether these tests faithfully reflect real world riding conditions in India. Riders often share their own mileage tracking methods, and tips for getting the most out of your fuel. It also often discusses the comparison to bikes in the segment and whether Platina 125's fuel efficiency will be enough to compensate for its higher initial cost than 100-110cc bikes.
Bajaj's claims are pretty close to reality as far as my experience is concerned. In mixed city highway riding I get around 65-70 kmpl consistently. It's just not the 80 kmpl they advertise, but it's good enough for a 125cc bike.
