Bajaj Avenger 180 launched in India, priced at Rs. 83,475/-.
The Bajaj Avenger 180 has been launched in India at a sticker price of Rs. 83,475/- (ex-showroom, Maharashtra). The Avenger 180 is available only in the Street variant and replaces the Avenger 150 in India. Colour palette on the new Avenger 180 includes Ebony Black and Spicy Red.
The Avenger 180 carries the design and most of the components from the Avenger 220 except for the fully-digital console (to keep costs in check). Some of the design highlights include LED DRL headlight, new graphics with larger Avenger insignia, black alloy wheels and rubberised rear grab rail.
The new Bajaj Avenger 180 Street is marginally longer and wider than the 150cc and 220cc variants, however, the wheelbase (at 1480 mm) is identical to the Avenger 150 it replaces. The height (at 1070 mm), ground clearance (at 169 mm) and kerb weight (at 150 kg) are identical to the 220cc variant. The cruiser bike draws power from a 180cc single-cylinder motor that produces 15.5 PS of power at 8500 RPM and 13.7 Nm of torque at 6500 RPM. The powertrain comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
The motorcycle gets telescopic forks up front and twin shock absorbers (with 12% additional travel) at the rear. Braking duties are done via a 260 mm disc up front and a 130 mm drum unit at the rear.
