New Delhi, May 2025 — Bajaj Auto continues its long-standing legacy in INDIA’s commuter motorcycle market with the Platina 110, a refined evolution of the brand’s successful Platina series. Designed with the modern commuter in mind, the Platina 110 blends fuel efficiency and affordability with subtle but meaningful advancements in performance, safety, and comfort—making it one of the most compelling offerings in the value-conscious two-wheeler segment.
Practical Engineering Meets Consumer Expectations
First launched in 2006 as a 100cc commuter motorcycle, the Platina has been a staple for Indian buyers seeking low-cost, low-maintenance mobility. The Platina 110 builds on this heritage with a 115.45cc DTS-i engine that delivers 8.6 HP at 7,000 RPM and 9.81 Nm of torque at 5,000 RPM. Twin spark plugs enhance combustion efficiency, improving fuel economy and emissions.
The four-speed gearbox with an all-up shift pattern is optimized for urban riding, and a long wheelbase of 1,255mm offers superior straight-line stability.
Suspension and Safety Upgrades for Real-World Roads
One of the standout features of the Platina 110 is its “ComforTec” suspension system, featuring Nitrox gas-charged rear shock absorbers and 135mm travel telescopic front forks. These systems are tailored for India’s varied terrain, delivering superior comfort on rough roads.
In the braking department, the motorcycle includes a 240mm front disc brake and Combined Braking System (CBS)—a feature that enhances safety by distributing braking force to both wheels, even though not mandated in this engine class.
Ergonomics and Rider Comfort
With a quilted 785mm seat, rubber-mounted contact points, and an upright rider posture, the Platina 110 is designed for extended daily use without fatigue. Its tubeless tires on 17-inch alloy wheels enhance grip, reduce puncture risks, and improve serviceability.
LED DRLs and indicators improve visibility while reducing power consumption, while the analog-digital instrument cluster keeps the interface user-friendly and informative.
Exceptional Fuel Economy and Ownership Value
Fuel efficiency remains a top priority, with Bajaj quoting up to 70–75 km/l under test conditions and 60–65 km/l in real-world usage. The 11-litre fuel tank offers a practical range exceeding 700 km—ideal for riders in rural areas with limited fuel access.
Backed by Bajaj’s wide service network, simple maintenance, and cost-effective spares, the Platina 110 ensures low ownership costs. Dual start options (electric and kick) add reliability, and the motorcycle’s resale value remains robust due to its mass-market appeal and reputation for durability.
Targeting India’s Largest Two-Wheeler Demographic
The Platina 110 serves:
-
Urban commuters looking for improved comfort without high running costs
-
Rural users needing robust, fuel-efficient transport
-
First-time buyers seeking more confidence and capability than entry-level 100cc bikes
Its pricing—positioned slightly above the 100cc segment—offers strong justification through tangible feature upgrades and long-term savings.
Bridging Utility and Aspiration in the Commuter Segment
The Bajaj Platina 110 exemplifies how commuter motorcycles in India are maturing. No longer defined by basic utility alone, this segment now welcomes enhanced ergonomics, performance, and safety features—all without departing from the core values of affordability, reliability, and efficiency.
As the Indian two-wheeler market continues to diversify, the Platina 110 sets the benchmark for brands looking to capture the evolving demands of mainstream riders. It’s not just a commuter motorcycle—it’s a strategic evolution built for India’s roads, riders, and realities.
