Bajaj Dominar 400 Sales Up By 59 Percent Post 2019 Model Launch

Bajaj recently launched the new Dominar with some added features, design changes and new colour options, hoping to improve the sales of the otherwise dwindling market share. The gamble did work to some extent as new Dominar 400 clocked 1,346 unit sales in April 2019, a far better result than the previous quarter of 2019 as only 1,191 units of Dominar sold same month last year.

Now in the sales of May 2019, Bajaj Dominar has performed even better recording a growth of 59 percent as against May 2018 sales. Interestingly, Bajaj projected to sell 10,000 units of Dominar monthly initially, but the current sales figures are nowhere close to it.

The new Dominar 400 was given a couple of new colour options including aurora green and black dual-colour scheme and Vine Black colour which buyers can choose from. The Dominar also gets redesigned digital cluster to show the gear position, trip information and time.

The bike gets redesigned aggressive looking headlight cluster with LED lights, refreshed fuel tank pad decal, tail-tell lights, split seats with split grab rails and bungee straps tucked under the seat and new rear view mirrors.

New Bajaj Dominar 400 also gets a retuned liquid-cooled 373.33 DOHC engine which produces 40bhp with 35Nm of peak torque. The engine is said to more refined and is mated to a 6-speed transmission which has slipper clutch which prevents rear wheel lockup in case of engine seizure or failed transmission. It gets Dual channel ABS as standard.

The cruiser also have Upside-Down forks which offers great handling, telescopic suspension at the rear, revised digital cluster and dual-barrel exhaust system. Bajaj Dominar continues compete against the likes of Royal Enfield Classic 350, KTM Duke 390 and Jawa Motorcycles and BMW G 310 R.
