Bajaj Auto is set to make a strong comeback in India’s affordable cruiser motorcycle segment with the return of a fan favorite — the Bajaj Avenger 220 Street. Known for its smooth highway performance and comfortable ergonomics, the Avenger 220 Street will once again offer budget-conscious riders a stylish yet powerful option for both city commutes and long-distance cruising.
Avenger Sub-Brand Gets a New Push
With the cruiser segment heating up, Bajaj is strategically reviving the Avenger 220 Street to complement its current lineup, which includes the Avenger Street 160 and Avenger Cruise 220. The 220 Street has already been homologated for Indian roads, and leaked regulatory documents suggest the bike’s launch is just around the corner.
Avenger 220 Street vs Cruise 220: What’s Different?
Mechanically, the 220 Street and Cruise 220 are identical, sharing the same engine and chassis. However, the Street model opts for a more minimalist, urban look:
Blacked-out components
Bold color schemes
No windshield
No chrome elements
Lower handlebar for city agility
In contrast, the Cruise 220 is outfitted with a windshield, chrome finishes, and extra touring hardware — making the Street version a more affordable and city-friendly cruiser.
Design, Dimensions & Ergonomics
Homologation details reveal:
Gross weight: 310 kg
Wheelbase: 1490mm
Length: 2210mm
Width: 806mm
Height: 1070mm
Without the tall windscreen of the Cruise, the 220 Street offers improved urban maneuverability while maintaining a laid-back, fatigue-free riding posture — ideal for both city rides and weekend escapes.
Engine & Performance
Powering the Avenger 220 Street is the trusted 220cc oil-cooled SOHC engine, delivering:
19.03 PS of power
17.55 Nm of torque
Paired with a 5-speed gearbox
This combination ensures smooth acceleration, comfortable cruising speeds, and reliable highway performance, perfect for riders seeking comfort and versatility.
Aggressive Pricing Expected
Following a reported 46% decline in Avenger brand sales (April 2025), Bajaj aims to aggressively price the 220 Street to re-energize interest:
Cruise 220 current price: ₹1.48 lakh (ex-showroom)
Expected 220 Street price: Around ₹1.40 lakh or below
This attractive pricing could help win back previous Avenger fans while attracting a new generation of riders.
Who’s It For?
The return of the Avenger 220 Street targets:
Riders seeking an affordable cruiser
Commuters wanting cruiser style without touring extras
Urban riders needing a fatigue-free daily ride
Weekend riders wanting comfortable highway cruising
With the segment seeing fewer new models in recent years, Bajaj’s revival of the 220 Street could reignite demand and help the Avenger brand regain lost ground.
Conclusion
The Bajaj Avenger 220 Street is primed to deliver an unbeatable combination of comfort, performance, and value. For riders looking for a cruiser that balances city agility with highway comfort, this upcoming launch will be one to watch.
