Bajaj Avenger Street 220 Specs: Same Power, Fresh Avatar.
Talking about specs, the Bajaj Avenger Street 220 bike will get the same trusted 220cc single-cylinder, oil-cooled SOHC 2V engine that is found in the Cruise variant.
This engine produces a peak power of 19.03 PS and a peak torque of 17.55 Nm, and this engine comes with a 5-speed gearbox.
Talking about the dimensions, as per the homologation documents:
- Gross weight: 310 kg
- Wheelbase: 1,490 mm
- Width: 806 mm
- Length: 2,210 mm
- Height: 1,070 mm
This time, the Street variant will be a little more compact than the Cruise, as it will not have a tall windshield, which will make its stance even more stealthy.
Design & Looks: Subtle Styling, Bold Presence.
Design is also very important for cruise lovers. And the Bajaj Avenger Street 220 Bike is making its mark here too. Its look comes with a more blackened finish – it feels very stealthy. This time, there is no chrome overdose, but rather minimal and modern vibes.
And compared to the Cruise variant, which gets a tall windshield, rear pillion backrest, and chrome-heavy setup, the Street variant gives a more urban and rider-focused feel. Perfect for those who want more daily comfort and style than long rides.
Performance: Sofa-Like Ride, Street-Like Control.
Street or Cruise – both come with low-slung seats, forward-set foot pegs, and pulled-back handlebars that give a classic cruiser stance.
But the Avenger Street 220 motorcycle does not get touring-friendly features – this keeps its weight low and maintains both control and comfort. This setup is considered quite ideal for smooth cruising in the city.
Bajaj Avenger Street 220 Launch Date in India: Countdown Has Already Begun.
Baja company has completed the homologation process of the Avenger Street 220 bike – this means the launch is not far away.
The official date has not been revealed yet, but according to leaks and internal sources, the launch is expected soon in India.
This is going to be a nostalgic moment for bike lovers, especially for those who missed the Street variant.
Bajaj Avenger Street 220 Price in India.
Now the biggest question – what will be the price? While the ex-showroom price of the Avenger 220 Cruise is Rs 1.48 lakh, the Bajaj Avenger Street 220 bike can be priced slightly below that, Rs 1.40 lakh (or even less).
Bajaj is trying to re-establish its presence in the cruiser segment, and with this pricing strategy, it can make a splash in this segment.
Sales & Segment: Comeback With A Purpose.
If we look at the numbers of April 2025, the sales of the Avenger lineup were only 1000+ units, which is a 46% YoY decline compared to last year. In such a situation, the relaunch of the Avenger Street 220 bike is a strategic move.
The Bajaj Avenger is the only model that falls in the true-blue textbook cruiser category, right between rivals like the Kawasaki W175 and the TVS Ronin. This combo of comfort, control, and affordability is hardly matched by anyone else.
Underrated No More?
We have discussed everything about this bike and also know that while other competitors are busy looking stylish or sporty, the Bajaj Avenger Street 220 Bike is quietly bringing back its signature cruising identity.
Bajaj’s comeback plan is not just a variant relaunch, but a comfort-first cruiser rebirth. Now it will be interesting to see if the market appreciates this comeback or not — but one thing is for sure: Street 220 is coming back, and this time with full throttle!
