Top 5 facts to know about the new Bajaj Dominar 400 before you buy it

Bajaj Auto has launched the new Dominar 400 with a downsized engine in the Indian market. The new Bajaj Dominar 400 comes priced at ₹203,214 (ex-showroom, Delhi), which means it is priced ₹37,000 less compared to the 400 cc version of the motorcycle that gets a 373.3 cc engine. The price reduction comes owing to the lower GST rate applied on the sub-350 cc engine-powered motorcycles. The Bajaj Dominar 400 is now available with the same 350 cc engine as the updated Triumph range of bikes. The new engine is a single-cylinder, liquid-cooled unit mated to a 6-speed gearbox, churning out 40 bhp peak power at 9,000 rpm and 33.2 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm.

Apart from the new downsized engine, the Bajaj Dominar 400 continues with the same design elements and features. However, thanks to the downsized engine, the updated Dominar 400 is 3 kg lighter compared to the outgoing version.

If you are planning to buy the new Bajaj Dominar 400, here is a quick factsheet about the motorcycle that you must check before booking it.

Bajaj Dominar 400: Leverages revised GST rule

The new Bajaj Dominar 400 leverages the revised GST rule that was implemented in late 2025. In comparison to the previous 373.3 cc engine, the updated Dominar 400 comes powered by a new 349 cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. This helps the Dominar 400 to take advantage of the revised GST rule that allows lower tax on the sub-350 cc engine-powered two-wheelers. Thanks to the downsized power mill, leading to lower taxes, the Dominar 400 has become cheaper by ₹37,000 than before.

The Bajaj Dominar 400 has become more affordable with the downsized engine. The motorcycle has become ₹37,000 cheaper compared to the previous version of the Dominar 400, which makes a significant difference. Launched at ₹2.04 lakh, the updated Dominar 400 is ₹26,000 dearer than the Bajaj Dominar 250, which is the most affordable in the Dominar range of models.
