Bajaj Auto Ltd. launched the upgraded Avenger 220 DTSi for the Indian market today. The Avenger 220 gets the 220cc oil-cooled engine from the Pulsar range of motorcycles with the power/torque curve being suitably re-tuned. The bike also comes with a DC circuit that gives it a constant light beam at all riding speeds. Updates such as dual density seating and battery charge level indicator are also part of the upgrade.

The Avenger will go on sale at a price of 69,000/- ex-showroom, Delhi with a 18-month warranty.

Ya it's true that the bike needs some visual upgrades too. But the engine seems to be powerful and making the Avenger competent with Thunderbird.

Why we Indians should always compromise,I want a 200+ cc bike & then i heard Bajaj is launching new upgraded Avenger & i brought it in my short-list,,but YUK what same old dated style after launch...Here there's everything ulta-pulta when we want a powerful variants of a certain bike they give styling upgrades(FZ,Fazer,R15,Dio) & when we want styling upgrades they offer powerful engines(pulsar,avenger) & we always buy compromise!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This model's getting old... time they reskinned it--- or maybe made it more substantial..... There's a terrific shortage of big cruisers near the 100K region guys... Come on...

About time we got some visual upgrades too. Or perhaps a vast selection of touring/chopper centric accessories.
