Bajaj V family has two models in the lineup, the Bajaj V15 and Bajaj V12.
Bajaj Auto has confirmed that it has sold 234,000 units of the Bajaj V15 and Bajaj V12 between April 1, 2016, and March 31, 2017. The Bajaj V15 was first showcased on February 1, 2017, and deliveries began in the second half of March 2017.
In December 2016, Bajaj Auto announced a 125 cc version called Bajaj V12 and launched it in January 2017. The Bajaj V12 gained a front disc brake version earlier this month.
The USP of Bajaj V is the use of metal from INS Vikrant in its fuel tank, which was independent India’s first aircraft carrier. The marketing idea clicked, and the Bajaj V15 sold 1 lakh units in the first 120 days in the market, with riders feeling that they brought home a piece of Indian history.
