Features and Engine

The new variant features a 4.2-inch TFT instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity and smartphone features like turn-by-turn navigation, call and SMS alerts, and music control. According to the company, this is the first bike in its segment to feature a tire pressure monitoring system that shows real-time air pressure. The bike runs on a 124.7cc single-cylinder air-cooled fuel-injected engine that produces 11.4 bhp of power and 10.5 Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. It goes from 0 to 60 kilometers per hour in 5.7 seconds and offers a claimed mileage of 66 kilometers per liter.

Context

Motorcycle manufacturers often introduce special editions with updated technology ahead of the festive season to attract buyers. Adding advanced rider aids and digital connectivity features to smaller 125cc bikes helps bring high-end safety tools to more affordable everyday models.
