Bajaj Auto aims to stir up the cruiser market with its boldest bike to date, the Avenger 400. This high-end cruiser keeps the cherished Avenger traits and sports a robust Dominar-sourced 373cc engine making it a potent rival in the mid-size bike category.
Looks and Style
The Avenger 400 keeps its traditional cruiser shape but adds fresh design features. It boasts LED lights such as a bright headlamp rear light, and signals. The design keeps the classic low-ride look and cozy rider space that fans of the Avenger adore, but now includes high-end additions with a digital display, alloy rims, and a fancy pillion support.
Motor and How It Goes
The Avenger 400’s core holds a smart 373.2cc one-cylinder, water-cooled motor cranking out a solid 35PS of energy and 35Nm of twist. This motor teams up with a slick 6-speed transmission and rocks up-to-date tech such as fuel injection and water cooling. Tuning of the motor’s traits aims to provide meaty torque down low and even energy flow just right for easygoing rides.
Tech and Stuff
The Avenger 400 packs a bunch of cool stuff like a digital dashboard where you can check out your speed, RPMs, trip details, and how much gas you got. It’s got some nifty safety bits too, like ABS that works on both ends and discs that help you stop on both wheels. Plus, there’s handy things for your ride like a USB spot to juice up your phone, a button to blink at folks, and a switch to cut the engine quick.
Kicking Back and Riding Easy
Staying true to the spirit of cruisers, the Avenger 400 puts comfort at the forefront for the rider. It’s got this chilled-out vibe with its spread-out handlebars and feet-forward pegs. Riders get to settle into a super cozy seat that when you combine it with the gas-filled dual back shocks and telescopic forks in the front, gives you a super smooth ride. Plus, it’s kitted with a backrest for your buddy at the back and some handles to hold onto.
When You’re Talking Gas and Getting Around
So, the Avenger 400 is pretty decent on the gas giving you about 24-28 km for each liter when you’re just rolling around like usual. It’s got a big tank that means you can go pretty far, which is ace for hitting the road for real long trips. It’s not too heavy either, and the balance is spot-on, so whether you’re zipping through town or out on the open road, it’s a smooth operator.
What’s It Gonna Cost You and When Can You Get It?
Bajaj expects to set the Avenger 400’s ex-showroom cost between Rs. 1.50 lakh and Rs. 1.60 lakh. The bike’s price tag presents it as a tempting option against the big names already in the game. Bajaj dealers all over will have this bike, and people should be able to book it any day now.
Facing the Rivals and Carving a Niche
Aiming at the Royal Enfield Classic 350 and Thunderbird 350, the Avenger 400 brings fresh tech and better zip to the table making it stand out. It mixes old-school looks with new-school tech at a price that’s right on the money hoping to snag a good chunk of the cruiser bike market that’s getting more popular by the minute.
