400cc Bajaj Engine Under Development, New 400cc Bike Launch In 2018

A recent report in the automotive industry claims that Bajaj Auto is currently working on a new400cc Bajaj Engine (DOHC) that will use triple spark technology, in house developed ECU and different gearing. The new motorcycle is expected to bring almost 40 HP of maximum power.

Bajaj Auto has announced the launch of two new products for January 2018, one of which is expected to be the new Avenger. As they also cleared the air of a bigger Pulsar coming next month, the launch is expected to bring big numbers to the company lineup.

That makes this development and January launch two different affairs. Bajaj Auto is losing a big share from the commuter centric market and they are preparing to gain almost 3-4% from the Indian market.


That is actually not possible with a 400cc motorcycle. Pulsar RS400, the worthy performance upgrade to RS200, has the highest chances of getting this new power-train as Avenger 400 would not be tuned to a higher spec version than Bajaj Dominar 400. The trend has been always visible among Bajaj Pulsar 220F and Avenger 220 Cruise.


If they don’t want TVS to enjoy a chunk of premium bike sale, a product like RS400 is the best bet within this segment. Presently, Dominar 400 is the flagship product for Bajaj Auto. Dominar got itself 1004 units in November 2017 while it was expected to bring over 10,000 units in sale till this month. Being a worthy product, it still could not eat into the huge 49,534 units of Royal Enfield Classic 350.

The on-road price tag of under INR 1.60 lakh is the benchmark for five digit sales as no other product around this price tag (except RE Bullet) has entered the five digit club. The entry of a bigger Avenger 400 will again ignite the hope of Bajaj Auto for getting some share out of this future friendly performance cruising segment.
