Bajaj Auto 3-wheeler model sales in Delhi NCR at new high
Bajaj Auto Ltd. has reached
another milestone with the sale of
its 10,000
th
goods carrier GC CNG
Max in Delhi and the NCR region.
To celebrate the occasion, a hundred
vehicles were delivered at a grand
function attended by almost 200
company customers and financiers.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr.
Puskhar Sinha, Regional Manager -
North (CV), Bajaj Auto Ltd., said:
“We are happy to have achieved
this feat in Delhi NCR. We thank
the thousands of satisfied custom-
ers who make a living by operating
these goods carriers. GC CNG Max
occupies a leadership market share
in Delhi NCR. This model has an
oil-cooled 200 cc engine which de-
livers 8.75 BHP power and is com-
pliant with Bharat Stage 3 norms. It
has a 7.5 kg CNG cylinder which
is ideal for long trips and has a fuel
average of around 36 km per kg of
CNG. With its compact design, it
is ideally suited for congested areas
vehicle industry
and trading hubs. The efficient en-
gine also ensures a smooth climb on
the numerous flyovers of Delhi”.
With the KMP (Kundli-Manesar-
Palwal) freight corridor planned
around Delhi, entry for bigger cargo
vehicles is likely to be restricted at
many places. The Bajaj GC Max
CNG will then prove to be an even
better option for last-mile goods
transportation. It represents a real
value for its proud owners. It is of-
fered with attractive standard fea-
tures and at less than Rs. 2 lakhs.
The company has sold over 2.10
lakh three-wheelers last year and
has set a sales target of 2.50 lakhs
for the coming year.
