While the V15 is the entry-level 150cc bike, the V20 and V40 will come with 200cc and 400cc capacity engines. Since the Pune-based bikemaker already has powertrains at its disposal, it will help them reduce development cost. Though there is no official information about engine specifications, the new V bikes will continue to have a small extract of INS Vikrant’s metal in their fuel tanks.

Priced at Rs 62,000, the Bajaj V15 became an instant success for the bikemaker. The bike has also marked its name in the list of 10 best selling bikes in April 2016. The home-grown bikemaker has a strong market hold in the entry and premium segments. However, in the executive commuter space, the company has a share of 40,000 units only. Therefore, the Bajaj V20 and V40 will be crucial products for Bajaj.
