Bajaj to launch CNG-powered motorcycle in the next quarter

The CNG-powered motorcycle project is internally known as the Bruzer E101.

Bajaj Auto has been developing a new motorcycle that can run on both petrol and CNG. It is likely to debut in the second quarter of 2024.

Rajiv Bajaj, Managing Director of Bajaj Auto, has revealed in an interview that the world’s first CNG-powered motorcycle will be launched soon. The company had initially planned to introduce the bike in 2025, but they have been able to prepone the launch to the next quarter of this year. Bajaj said that with the CNG-powered motorcycle, Bajaj should be able to cut down on operating and fuel costs by up to 50-65%.

Technical details of the CNG-powered bike are still under wraps. However, media reports suggest that the project is internally known as the Bruzer E101. It is rumoured to use a 110cc engine.

It has also been reported that the bike could be manufactured at Bajaj’s Aurangabad plant, and later, at the Pant Nagar facility. Bajaj is said to have a production plan to build 2 lakh units per annum.
