The latest model of the range will compete directly against models like TVS iQube 3.4, Ola S1X+, and Ather Rizta S in India.
Moreover, a update for the Bajaj Dominar 400 is in the pipeline. Although the updated model has been spotted at dealerships, the launch date of the 2025 Bajaj Dominar 400 has not been announced yet.
