Bajaj Avenger 400X is a new cruiser bike that has been talked about for a long time. Some reports say it might come to India by the end of 2025, around December, but there’s no official news yet as of May 2025. The Avenger 400 series has been expected since 2018, and the 400X might be a sportier version of that bike. You might be able to find it in showrooms or book it online if it launches.
Look and Build
The Avenger 400X is expected to have a strong, sporty look, a bit tougher than the older Avenger bikes like the Street 160 or Cruise 220. The front might have a round headlamp with LED lights that stay on during the day, giving it a bold style. The petrol tank could look bigger, with new stickers that make it look modern and sporty. The bike might have black alloy wheels and a black engine to add to its tough look. The back could have a bright LED tail light and a seat with a small backrest for the person sitting behind. It might come in colors like black, silver, blue, or red. The bike could be around 2100 mm long, 800 mm wide, and 1100 mm tall, with a ground clearance of 160 mm, good for city roads. It might weigh around 150 kg, making it easy to handle.
Engine and Power
The Avenger 400X is expected to have a 373cc engine that stays cool with liquid, the same one used in another Bajaj bike called the Dominar 400. This engine might give good power, around 35 to 40 PS, and good strength, around 35 Nm, for easy rides in the city or on highways. The engine could come with a 6-step gear system that shifts smoothly, making it good for long rides. The top speed might be around 130 km per hour, and it could go from 0 to 100 km per hour in about 7 seconds, which is nice for a cruiser bike.
Mileage in Daily Use
The Avenger 400X might go 25 to 41 km on one litre of petrol, depending on the road and how you ride, as per some reports. In real use, it might give 25-30 km per litre in the city with many stops, and up to 35-41 km per litre on open roads if you ride at a steady 50-60 km per hour. The petrol tank could hold 13 litres, so on a full tank, you can ride 325-533 km, depending on your riding style. With petrol at Rs 100 per litre, filling the tank costs Rs 1300, which works out to Rs 2.44 to 4 per km. If you ride fast or on rough roads, the mileage might drop to 25 km per litre, giving a range of 325 km.
Ride and Handling
The Avenger 400X might have a comfy seat that’s low, around 790 mm high, good for both the rider and the person sitting behind. The handlebar could be wide, making it easy to ride for a long time. The front suspension might take care of small bumps, and the back could have two shock absorbers to make the ride smooth on rough roads. The bike might have a disc brake in the front and back, with a system to stop skidding for safety. The tyres could be 17 inches and tubeless, giving good grip on city and highway roads. The bike should feel steady and easy to move in traffic.
Features for Daily Use
The Avenger 400X might come with a digital screen that shows speed, distance, and petrol level. Some versions could connect to your phone, so you can see calls or directions while riding. It might have a USB port to charge your phone, which is handy for long rides. The bike could have LED lights in the front and back, making it easy to see at night. It might also have a system that stops the engine when you’re waiting at a signal to save petrol, starting again when you move.
Price in 2025
The Avenger 400X price might start at around Rs 1.50 lakh to Rs 2.20 lakh, depending on the type, as per some reports. This price is for the showroom, so it might cost more on the road with taxes. Some reports say it could be cheaper than other bikes in its group, making it a good choice for buyers who want a bigger cruiser bike.
Safety Features
The bike might have a system to stop skidding, with disc brakes in the front and back for safe stopping. It could have a light that stays on all the time, so other people can see you on the road, especially at night. The strong frame and good tyres should keep the bike steady on different roads, adding to its safety.
Compared to Other Bikes
The Avenger 400X might go up against bikes like the Royal Enfield Meteor 350 and Kawasaki Eliminator. The Meteor 350 gives around 35 km per litre, costing Rs 2.86 per km at Rs 100/litre. The Avenger 400X’s 25-41 km per litre costs Rs 2.44 to 4 per km, so the Meteor might save a bit. For a daily ride of 50 km, this means yearly savings of Rs 7,600 with the Meteor 350. The Eliminator gives around 30 km per litre, costing Rs 3.33 per km, so the Avenger 400X might save a bit here. But the Avenger 400X could have more modern features, like phone connectivity and a digital screen, which some buyers might like better.
Support and Maintenance Costs
Bajaj has many service centres in India, so fixing the bike should be easy in most places. Some users of other Bajaj bikes say the yearly maintenance cost is between Rs 3,000 to Rs 5,000, depending on usage. Keeping the bike in good shape, like cleaning the air filter and changing oil on time, helps keep mileage high. If parts get spoiled, it might cost more to fix in small towns.
Market Standing in 2025
In May 2025, the Avenger 400X hasn’t launched yet, but the Avenger series, like the Street 160 and Cruise 220, is still popular in India. The Avenger 400X, if launched, could be a strong choice in the cruiser bike group, taking on bigger bikes like the Royal Enfield Meteor 350. Bajaj has other bikes like the Dominar 400 and Pulsar series in the market, but the Avenger 400X could bring a new option for riders who want a bigger cruiser bike.
Who It’s For
The Bajaj Avenger 400X is made for riders who want a 2-seater cruiser bike with a sporty look and good power. It suits young riders and those who like long rides, with a focus on comfort, modern features, and saving petrol compared to other big bikes.
