The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Longest range in BGauss's C12 lineup at a claimed 178 km IDC, with a generous 38-litre under-seat storage
  • 5-inch TFT display with turn-by-turn navigation, DigiLocker integration and FallSense crash detection are unusual at this price
  • Cruise mode and reverse mode add convenience most rivals in this bracket skip

Worth knowing

  • No ABS despite being the most expensive scooter in BGauss's own lineup, and the rear brake is a drum, not a disc
  • Modest 75 kmph top speed and a 5.3 second 0-40 kmph time trail some similarly priced rivals
  • Brand new model as of launch week, no ownership track record yet

Source Notes / Discrepancies

Source Notes / Discrepancies Re-verified 12 Sep 2026: introductory ex-showroom price of Rs 1,45,990 (also reported as Rs 1,45,999) remains current per BikeDekho, ZigWheels, evoindia and RushLane, still no live specs/price page found on BGauss's own site (bgauss.com). Multiple sources note this is a limited-period introductory price that is expected to rise to around Rs 1,55,000 ex-showroom once festive-period offers end, though no exact increase date has been confirmed. Autocar India separately reported a launch price of Rs 1,60,000, a discrepancy from the Rs 1.46 lakh figure used by most other outlets, flagged here rather than silently resolved. Colour count also varies slightly by source (3 vs 4 named colours), this entry uses the 4-colour set from BikeDekho's launch article. No kerb weight/dimension figures beyond seat height and ground clearance were available.
