Bajaj Auto, a prominent participant at the Bharat Mobility Expo in New Delhi, is presenting a comprehensive range of vehicles capable of running on various cleaner alternative fuels, including ethanol blends, CNG, and electric power, according to autocarpro.
The display features six vehicles, including two motorcycles, a scooter, passenger and cargo three-wheelers, and the Qute quadricycle.
Dominar E27.5: A variant of the Dominar 400 touring motorcycle utilizing a 27.5% ethanol-petrol blend. Pulsar NS160 Flex: An eco-friendly version of the popular Pulsar motorcycle designed to run on both ethanol and petrol. Flex-fuel technology enables the engine to intelligently utilize a mix of ethanol and gasoline, with variability based on customer preferences. These vehicles align with the Government of India’s initiatives on ethanol-blended and ethanol fuels.
Bajaj Auto’s electric scooter, the Chetak Premium, experiencing robust demand in the market, is the featured electric vehicle (EV) at the expo. The Bajaj RE E-Tec 9.0 for passengers and Bajaj Maxima XL Cargo E-Tec 12.0 for cargo are recently launched electric three-wheeler variants, complementing the high-selling Maxima ICE three-wheeler. India’s first Auto Taxi, the Bajaj Qute, is a 4-seater hatchback for commuters, available in LPG and CNG variants. Running on cleaner and more cost-effective alternatives to gasoline, the Bajaj Qute offers superior range, an all-weather monocoque body, and attractively lower operating costs for an affordable and comfortable commute.
