Bajaj Auto has drawn up a new, aggressive strategy for its motorcycles, which will involve a specific platform approach to generate big numbers. As part of this effort, it has also decided to launch a 125cc version of the Platina that will co-exist with its 100 cc sibling.
Managing director of Bajaj Auto, Rajiv Bajaj told DNA Money that three distinct platforms would form part of the plan. The top tier comprises the Discover , Pulsar and Avenger while the XCD represents the mid-platform. The 100cc range rolls out of the basic platform which includes the Platina as well as export models like the Boxer and CT 100.
