Image for illustration purpose onlyMany OEMs proactively file new trademarks, although it is not guaranteed that these products will reach production stageWhile it has partnerships with Triumph and KTM, Bajaj Auto is also working to upgrade and expand its own portfolio. Towards that end, the company has registered new trademarks Bajaj Genie and Bajaj Swing.Some other names have also been registered such as Bajaj Badal and Bajaj Runner. Earlier this year in March, the company had registered three names – Bajaj Aura, Bajaj Racer and Bajaj Hammer.Bajaj Genie, Bajaj Swing – scooter or motorcycle?It is not clear what these new trademarks are meant for. While Bajaj Genie trademark application was filed in April 2023, Bajaj Swing was filed in May 2023. The current status of all these trademark applications is ‘Formalities Chk Pass’. This is essentially the primary stage of trademark approval process. The final stage of approval is when the status shows as ‘Registered’. For example, earlier names such as Bajaj Tecnica and Bajaj Technik have been registered and are valid up to 2032.Trademark name applications can take a long time to process. There can be objections from other parties, who may have the same or similar sounding trademark name. In some cases, the company itself may abandon some trademark applications. Due to these reasons, OEMs register multiple names in advance. These can be used as per requirement in future.Bajaj trademarks new names – Swing and GenieGoing by their name, Bajaj Genie and Bajaj Swing appear more like the name of scooters. It is possible that Bajaj may be looking to expand its electric scooter range. As of now, there’s only Chetak to take on rivals like Ola S1, TVS iQube and Ather 450X. If Bajaj can launch affordable electric two-wheelers, it can boost sales and grab a larger market share.With reduction in subsidy, many OEMs including Ola and Ather have introduced affordable variants of their scooters. Simple Energy will also be launching new affordable electric scooters in the next quarter.Could it be the names of 3-wheelers?It is also possible that Bajaj Genie and Bajaj Swing could be names of upcoming electric 3-wheelers / rickshaws. It is known that Bajaj is working on its first electric 3-wheeler. The company is the market leader in ICE 3-wheeler segment with market share of more than 70 percent. However, it is yet to launch an electric 3-wheeler. OEMs like Mahindra and Piaggio have taken a lead in this space.It is expected that Bajaj will launch its first electric rickshaw later this year. A test mule was spotted earlier this year in February. Some interesting features were noted such as a fully digital instrument cluster with two dials and lockable storage compartment. It is expected that Bajaj electric rickshaw will have a range of 120 km. Battery charging time could vary based on the type of charger used. More

2023 New Bajaj Pulsar NS160 and NS200 colourWith this update, Bajaj intends to bring newness into the Pulsar NS range of motorcyclesPulsar NS200 and NS160 get a new colour based on earlier Burnt Red shade. Changes are in the way Bajaj is mixing and matching with other colours like Black and White. And of course, graphics. This new colour follows the recent update which came in the form of USD front forks for NS160 and NS200.Design-front, Bajaj has kept the Pulsar NS160 and NS200 identical to the 2012 model. Over the years, there have been revisions to its graphics, something Bajaj has quite a reputation in. This recent colour update is a reflection of Bajaj’s fondness for stickers, graphics and colours. Other than that, no mechanical updates are on offer.Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and NS160 Get A New Red colourTo keep the product fresh, Bajaj is offering a new colour with both NS160 and NS200. Arun Bajaj, company’s authorised dealer from Nagpur, Maharashtra, shared this update on social media platform Instagram.The major part of NS’ perimeter frame was finished in White before. Now it is gun-metal Grey. Tank shrouds had 160 or 200 written in faded White, which is now faded Grey. Red pin-striping on wheels is now Grey too, instead of Red. Headlight cowl now gets both Red and White stickers instead of just Red before.New Red colourThere is a White sticker in the lower part of the fuel tank, which wasn’t present before. Rear subframe body panels used to get a majority of Black, followed by Red and a tiny amount of White. Now, Majority is Red, followed by White stickering. While Black is completely absent.No mechanical changesApart from the recent update, this new colour doesn’t bring anything new to the table. The new USD front telescopic forks, larger disc brakes, Grimeca calipers from N250 and F250 are notable elements. There are benefits to USD forks as opposed to conventional telescopic forks.This way, there is significantly more front-end feel now which simply can’t be matched by conventional forks on offer before. Other changes include a gear position indicator on the instrument console, which was not present before. We wish Pulsars received Bluetooth connectivity, but the only thing coming close to it is a blue-backlit Bajaj logo.New graphicsThere are still no LEDs on offer in headlights and turn indicators. NS160 still dons the same 164.82cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine, making 15.68 bhp of power and 14.65 Nm of torque. It is coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox. Whereas, NS200 dons KTM-sourced 199.5cc engine with 24.14 bhp of power and 18.74 Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox and liquid-cooling setup.Pricing & ColoursBajaj priced Pulsar NS160 at Rs. 1.25 lakh and NS200 at Rs. 1.40 lakh for single channel ABS models at Rs. 1.36 lakh and Rs. 1.49 lakh respectively (all prices ex-sh). The name of this new Red colour is not yet out. That said, it will join other colours offered with NS160 and NS200.New attractive side profile More
