Bajaj Avenger 160 Street Price Leaked Ahead of Launch in India

Bajaj Avenger 160 Street Price Leaked Ahead of Launch in India

A recent report in the automotive industry has claimed that Bajaj Avenger 160 Street ABS will be priced at INR 81,036 (ex-showroom Pune). The much-lower price tag in comparison to the Avenger 220 will help the motorcycle establish its own league of buyers in a short period of time for sure. Buyers can save around INR 25,000 from the on-road price if they plan to keep the profile low and get the 160cc variant in place of the bigger 220cc cruiser. The motorcycle is expected to arrive at the dealerships in the first week of May, also hinting that the brand will update the official price list and website with ABS models. The current generation Bajaj lineup will stay more or less similar until the arrival of 2020, with major changes expected around the first quarter of the next year when BS6-friendly bikes will be allowed for sale and all others will be discontinued from the lineup.

The drop in the price is INR 7,000 (approx.) from the 180cc Avenger, that too after getting the ABS, making the deal unbelievable for cruiser motorcycle fans. The new 160.3cc engine is good for 15.5 HP at 8500 rpm and 14.6 Nm at 6500 rpm. It produces more torque in comparison to the 180cc engine and power value is similar to the older engine, clearing that there is no direct benefit of keeping the 180cc engine alive after the BS6 upgrade. Bajaj Auto currently has 150cc, 160cc, 180cc, 200cc, and 220cc engine options before the mighty 373cc motor of the Dominar. Taking all of them to the BS6 level may not be possible as price hikes will make many of them non-feasible for regular motorcycle buyers of India. The DTS-i series may get replaced by the other options. Source

Most Popular Answers for Avenger 160 Street
Which one is best for daily commute for 50 km Ntorq or Avenger 160 street?
2023-09-08 11:26:28 AM

Both are different segment vehicles and come under different price ranges too. If you're looking for a fast, fun-to-ride, and feature-rich scooter at a price, the TVS Ntorq 125 is the right choice for you. It still remains the benchmark for performance in its class and the sporty styling adds to its appeal. Our only grouse is the premium pricing post the BS6 update. On the other hand, if budget is not an issue and want better power performance and comfortable ride quality, you may go for Bajaj Avenger Street 160. You may compare both vehicles accordingly. Take a test ride in order to get better clarity.
