The Bajaj Freedom is the world’s first CNG motorcycle, and it was launched in India in February 2023. It is a 125cc motorcycle that can run on both CNG and petrol.

The future of Bajaj CNG bikes looks promising. CNG is a cleaner burning fuel than petrol, and it is also much cheaper. This could make CNG bikes a very attractive option for budget-minded consumers, especially in India where CNG infrastructure is well developed. Additionally, the government of India is offering subsidies on CNG vehicles, which could further boost the demand for Bajaj CNG bikes.
