With scrambler + cafe racer like design elements, the Bajaj V15 attracts the executive segment buyers. This will help the company grow its volumes in the fast-growing premium commuter category.

After that it was kept as a museum ship in Mumbai, and was sent to scrapyard in January 2014. “But we were determined not to let history fade away into oblivion. So, we took INS Vikrant’s metal, melted it and gave it a new face – Bajaj V.”, said Bajaj Auto.

Bajaj claims that the bike’s trapezoidal headlamp is 60% brighter than other bikes. Its large fuel tank made up of the invincible metal of the INS Vikrant that provides it strength and solidity.
