Powering the Altroz Racer is a 1.2-liter turbocharged petrol engine generating 118 bhp and 170 Nm of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is confirmed, with rumours suggesting a possible dual-clutch transmission (DCT) option.

Bajaj CNG bike

Bajaj Auto is gearing up to launch India's first mass-produced CNG motorcycle on June 18th, 2024. While the official name is yet to be revealed, rumors suggest it could be called the Bajaj Fighter. The bike is expected to feature a 125cc engine with a CNG cylinder positioned under the seat. It will also include a smaller auxiliary petrol tank.

This launch marks a significant step in the Indian two-wheeler market. CNG bikes offer a potential middle ground between petrol-powered vehicles and electric bikes. While electric bikes currently face limitations in range and charging infrastructure, CNG technology boasts lower running costs compared to petrol.

However, a key challenge for CNG bikes is the availability of refuelling stations. It remains to be seen how Bajaj will navigate this obstacle in terms of sales strategy, considering the limited presence of CNG pumps across all Indian towns.
