With an impressive mileage of 102 km/kg on CNG and 65 km/l on petrol, it has emerged as a blessing for middle-class commuters.
If you travel 30–40 km daily for office or work, this bike can help you save nearly ₹4,000 to ₹5,000 every month on fuel costs.

Engine Performance & Massive Fuel Savings
Bajaj Freedom 125 is powered by a 125cc air-cooled engine producing 9.3 PS of power and 9.7 Nm of torque. The engine supports both CNG and petrol and allows instant switching between fuels with the press of a button. If petrol runs out, the bike automatically shifts to CNG mode.
Mileage figures are truly impressive:
- CNG: 102 km/kg
- Petrol: 65 km/l
The bike features a 2 kg CNG tank offering around 200 km range and a 2-liter petrol tank providing an additional 130 km. Combined, you get a total range of nearly 330 km on a single refill.
With CNG priced around ₹80/kg and petrol at ₹100/l, your daily travel cost can drop to as low as ₹4–₹5 per km.
Unique Features & Safety Highlights
Bajaj Freedom 125 stands out with several first-in-segment features. The biggest highlight is the on-the-go fuel switching system, allowing riders to change between CNG and petrol instantly.
The CNG tank is securely housed within a strong trellis frame, ensuring maximum protection even in case of accidents. The tank is PESO-certified, meeting all government safety standards.
Additional highlights include:
- Longest seat in the segment (785 mm) for superior comfort
- Linked mono-shock rear suspension for rough roads

Variants & Color Options
Bajaj Freedom 125 is available in three main variants:

It comes in 7 attractive color options including Caribbean Blue, Black, Cyber White, Racing Red, Grey, and two additional stylish shades. Each color features premium graphics that enhance the bike’s unique appeal.
Comparison with Competitors
Bajaj Freedom 125 has no direct competitor because it is the world’s first CNG motorcycle. However, in the same price range, bikes like Honda SP 125 (₹98,500–₹1,09,000) and TVS Raider 125 (₹95,000–₹1,15,000) are available—but neither offers CNG technology.
When you factor in monthly fuel savings of nearly ₹4,000, Freedom 125 becomes the most economical option. In just 18–24 months, the bike pays for itself purely through reduced fuel expenses.
