Bajaj Platina Comfortec
Following the introduction of new
exterior colour schemes for the Bajaj Avenger Cruiser 220 and the Bajaj Avenger
Street 150, Bajaj Auto has silently launched the Bajaj Platina ComforTec in
India. As the name suggests, the new Bajaj Platina claims to offer more comfort
than rivaling motorcycles in its class.
The Bajaj Platina Comfortec has 28%
longer front suspension and 28% longer double spring rear suspension compared
to an undisclosed leading 100 cc motorcycle. Aided by ‘Spring Soft’ seat and
rubber footpads, this package helps the Bajaj Platina Comfortec become 20% more
resistant to jerks compared to the leading 100 cc motorcycle it was tested
against.
The Bajaj Platina Comfortec is powered
by the 102 cc DTS-i engine that produces 8.2 PS at 7,500 rpm and 8.6
Nm of torque at 5,000 rpm. Power is sent to the wheel via a 4-speed
transmission. With this configuration, the Bajaj platina Comfortec has a fuel
economy rating (as per ARAI testing norms) of 104 km/l.
The Bajaj Platina Comfortec is available
in two models: Platina 100 Alloy ES and Platina 100 Alloy KS, priced
(ex-showroom Delhi) at INR 43,241 and INR 45,252. The new economy commuter is
available in three colours: Red, Black and Blue.
