The 220cc, oil-cooled engine of the Cruise produces 19.03hp of power and 17.55Nm of torque. The engine is paired to a 5-speed transmission that it also shares with the 160 Street. Speaking of which, the engine in the Bajaj Avenger 160 Street makes 15hp of power and 13.7Nm. Both the engines are quite smooth in operation with the only vibrations coming in for the pillion through the foot pegs. The riding stance of both the bikes suggests a relaxed posture. We like the fuel efficiency that both the bikes return – well over 45kmpl.

Feature-wise, customers will get a fully-digital instrument console in the 220 and disc brakes at the front. There is also single-channel ABS on offer. At the same time, alloy wheels with tubeless rubber is also available with the 160 Street. This and more details can be gleaned from the video.
