Bajaj has introduced some first-in-class features in its latest commuter offering. These features include the ‘H-Gear’ and the ‘Gear-Shift-Guide’. The H-Gear stands for highway gear and is optimised to give the bike just enough power to cruise comfortably while maintaining its high commuter fuel efficiency figures. The bike is also the first in its class to introduce a fifth gear in its engine. The ‘Gear-Shift-Guide’ is an indicator on the digital console of the bike which prompts the rider to shift gear up or down based on the speed and gear combination to get best fuel efficiency.
