UM Renegade Classic deliveries from May 2017 onwards. Positioned as a range-topping model, the UM Renegade Classic is
powered by the same 279 cc water cooled, single cylinder mill which is capable
of producing 25 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 21.8 Nm of peak torque at 7,000 rpm. The
engine is coupled to a 6-speed gearbox.
The bike showcased at the Auto Expo 2016 had
telescopic forks up front and twin springs in the rear. The fuel tank can store
18 litre of fuel. Brakes include a 280 mm disc with a 2 piston caliper and a
drum setup in the rear.
The engine though is expected to be fuel injected as
against the carburetted version seen in the Renegade Commando and Renegade
Sport S. The UM Renegade Classic is also expected to be introduced only with
BSIV compliance.
Bookings for the UM
Renegade Classic will begin in April. UM had announced the Classic
to be priced at INR 1.69 lakhs (ex-showroom, Delhi) but a price hike of a few
thousand rupees cannot be ruled out.
