Bajaj Auto announced the launch of Freedom, the world’s first CNG motorcycle. With this launch Bajaj aims to provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional petrol motorcycles.
The CNG tank provides a range of 200+ km on just 2 kg of CNG fuel. Additionally, it has a 2-liter petrol tank which performs as a range extender, offering over130 km of range in case the CNG tank empties, ensuring an uninterrupted journey, the release claimed.
The motorcycle is also an environmentally friendly option, as CNG combustion produces approximately 26.7% less CO2 emissions than petrol, contributing to mitigating climate change.
CNG vehicles emit 85% lower NMHC’s (non-methane hydrocarbons) and 43% less NOx (nitrogen oxide). It costs more than a lakh of Rupees.
