2019 Bajaj Avenger Cruise 220

The third generation of the widely successful Avenger required an update in order to deal with competition such as the Suzuki Intruder, which was launched in Q3, 2017. With this update, the 150 cc version was retired in favour of a 180 cc version. The third generation brought with it a slew of design changes such as a new headlamp with LED DRLs. A digital instrument cluster, backlit with blue on the Cruise and Orange on the Street, is also a recent addition. There is also a new tall shroud that shields the instrument cluster from direct sunlight. The new cluster gets a speedometer, two trip meters, fuel gauge and a service reminder. The back grab rail for the Street version has been revamped too. The Avenger insignia has also been changed and made bigger. There are new graphics and colours for all three variants, too: Avenger Cruise 220: Auburn Black, Moon White Avenger Street 220: Matt Black, Matt White Avenger Street 180: Red, Black Apart from these, there are no mechanical changes to any of the bikes. In May 2019, Bajaj launched Avenger Street 160 ABS. The bike was launched in two colors - Ebony Black and Spicy Red.
