TL;DR
Bajaj Auto is set to launch its first dual-sport adventure motorcycle, possibly called 'Trekker,' by the end of 2026, featuring a re-tuned 249cc engine.
Bajaj Auto is gearing up to introduce its first-ever dual-sport adventure motorcycle in the Indian market, with a global premiere expected between November and December of this year. The upcoming model, potentially named 'Trekker,' has been frequently observed during road tests, indicating an imminent official unveiling.
Reports suggest the new adventure bike will likely borrow its 249cc single-cylinder, air/oil-cooled engine from the Pulsar N250. While the N250 produces 24.2 bhp and 21.5 Nm of torque, Bajaj is expected to re-tune the engine and gear ratios to optimize performance for adventure touring, focusing on robust low-end and mid-range power. This strategy aims to maintain competitive pricing by utilizing an existing powertrain.
