Bajaj Auto on Monday launched its 100 cc motorcycle Discover 100T priced at Rs 50,500 (ex-showroom New Delhi).
According to the company,
the new bike is powered by a patented four-valve DTS-i technology engine which delivers 10.2 Ps of power and a fuel efficiency of 87 km per litre.
"The all-new Discover 100T delivers the
power of a 125cc with the economy of a 100cc to bring in the joy of riding to this segment," said K.Srinivas, president, motorcycle business, Bajaj Auto.
The engine is coupled with five-speed gear box and auto choke for easy start in all weather conditions.
"While 100cc bikes do offer good mileage, their style, features and performance leave a lot to be desired. The steady growth of the more expensive 100cc bikes at the cost of the cheaper models is a clear evidence of this," he said.
Goldman Sachs in a January 4 report
included Bajaj Auto in its Asia-Pacific "growth recovery" group of stocks that are expected to see favourable growth and valuations in 2013.
