It was just last month when reports about the addition of the Bajaj Platina 100 ES disc brake variant in the company’s product line-up started to surface. Now, Bajaj Auto has finally launched the new motorcycle. The 100cc commuter with better braking performance has been priced at INR 60,698*.
The new Bajaj Platina 100 ES disc brake variant features a 240mm front disc brake.
At this price, the new Bajaj Platina 100 ES disc brake variant is INR 2,221 costlier than the Platina 100 ES drum brake variant and INR 10,234 dearer than the Platina 100 KS. It also means that the new model is the range-topping trim in the Platina 100 line-up.

The new Bajaj Platina 100 ES disc brake variant features a 240mm front disc brake which will definitely enhance the commuter’s braking capabilities. Most likely, it is the same rotor that Bajaj Auto uses in the more premium Platina 110 H Gear. And at the rear, there is a 110mm drum brake with Anti-Skid braking system.
The inclusion of the front disc brake has resulted in a slight increase in the kerb weight of the Platina 100 ES. At 119 kg, the disc brake variant is 1.5 kg heavier than the drum brake variant.

It produces a maximum power of 7.9 PS at 7,500 rpm and 8.34 Nm of peak torque at 5,500 rpm. This air-cooled mill is coupled to a 4-speed gearbox.
