Bajaj Platina 125 2025 : Bajaj Auto has once again strengthened its reputation as a trusted brand for Indian commuters with the launch of the upgraded Bajaj Platina 125. For over 14 years, the Platina series has been a symbol of reliability, fuel efficiency, and practicality. The 2025 model builds on this legacy with subtle design improvements, enhanced comfort, and modern features—all while staying true to its budget-friendly roots.
A Contemporary Yet Familiar Design
The new Platina 125 hasn’t undergone a complete transformation as a brand, but enough to make it look fresher than the outgoing version. The motorcycle has become narrower with a redesigned fuel tank and fresh body graphics including aggressive new fuel tank with modern lines and underseat exhaust with sporty LED Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) for a contemporary look. Premium touches like the chrome trim on the exhaust and side panels set it apart too, and a seldom seen touch in this class.
Bajaj has also offered new paint options to target both younger audience as well as its loyal customers. The style remains definitely unadorned and utilitarian, which should be suitable for most commuters.
Efficient and Reliable Performance
The Platina 125 is powered by the bulletproof 124.6cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled DTS-i engine which is good for 10.5 PS and 11 Nm of torque. All of this amounts to a powertrain that’s geared more for smoothness and fuel efficiency, making it well-suited to city commuting, with bursts of highway cruising thrown into the mix.
The bike is also offered with alloy wheels and 5-speed gearbox, provides a balanced ride both in traffic & open road.
Unparalleled Riding Comfort
The 2025 model does take the Platina series’s hallmark of comfort to another level, after all. He seat is now longer, wider and more cushy to ensure more comfort for both the rider and pillion. The upright riding position eliminates a lot of the stress on your body, and the twin spring-in-spring rear shocks and telescopic front forks soak up bumps with ease, taking the sting out of even the roughest terrain.
Exceptional Fuel Efficiency
Its fabulous fuel efficiency is one among the strongest selling points of the Platina 125. The claimed fuel efficiency of 65-70 km/l is one of its highlights amongst all the options in its segment. If you are a daily commuter, delivery person or if you are on a budget then look no futher than this bike for great savings without losing performance.
Practical Features for Everyday Convenience
The Platina 125 is packed with user-friendly features designed for real-world usability:
- A semi-digital instrument cluster displaying speed, fuel level, and trip meter.
- Electric start, pass switch, and Auto Headlamp On (AHO) for added convenience.
- Lightweight handling, making city maneuvering effortless.
Enhanced Safety with CBS
Safety is of primary concern and the Platina 125 is equipped with a Combi-Braking System (CBS) for far safer braking distribution between the front and rear wheels. This results in shorter stopping distances and improved stability. The drum brakes in the base model have been replaced with a disc brake at the front in the top model for better braking performance.
Affordable and Value-Packed
Priced at close to ₹78,000 (ex-showroom), the Platina 125 is currently one of the lowest 125cc bikes you can buy in India. It is a great choice for students, commuters, or as an extra vehicle to leave at the family cabin.
Built for India’s Diverse Roads
Whether through traffic packed city streets or potholed rural roads, the Platina 125 feels at home everywhere. Its rugged construction, comfortable ergonomics and frugal engine make it a reliable ride on many city streets.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 Bajaj Platina 125 is a versatile commuter which is comfortable, frugal and cheap too. With a new look, more features and Bajaj’s wide- spread service network, it continues to be the benchmark for those who want an honest motorcycle without any frills and one that works fine on all fronts.
