It can help cut down operational costs by 50%

Cars running on alternative fuels such as liquefied petroleum gas aren’t new. For motorcycles, however, it’s mostly been just petrol over the years.

Bajaj, however, has finally changed that, as it has now created a motorcycle that runs not on LPG but on compressed natural gas . The Bajaj Freedom 125, the world’s first CNG-powered motorcycle, has just debuted in India and it’s got the industry buzzing.Toyota Vios Cup returns as the TGR Philippine Cup for its 10th yearThe Bajaj Freedom packas a 125cc air-cooled engine that’s powered by a 12.5-liter/2kg CNG tank housed inside the protective trellis frame.

The engine puts out 9.37hp at 8,000rpm and 9.7Nm of torque at 5,000rpm when running on CNG, and it has a top speed of 90.5kph. Flat-out figures for petrol, meanwhile, top out at 93.4kph. In terms of design, it’s a pretty decent-looking bike. There’s a round headlamp up front to go along with covered front forks. The fairings are nothing to write home about, but they don’t look abysmal either. The trellis frame is exposed to add a bit of style, and there’s a body-color grab bar at the rear. The bike also gets a quilted leather seat and 17-inch front and 16-inch rear wheels as standard.

The Freedom also gets a fully digital instrument cluster that supports Bluetooth connectivity. Five colors are available, namely: Caribbean Blue, Ebony Black, Cyber White, Racing Red, and Pewter Grey.Bajaj claims operational costs can be cut by a whopping 50% with this bike. But the icing on top of all these? The SRP. In India, the Bajaj Freedom 125 starts at 110,000 Indian rupees, which equates to roughly P77,000. For what the bike’s capable of, that’s a darn good price tag.
