This launch will help to improve the sales. But Bajaj should increase the touch points especially Tier2 and Tier3 cities.

Any idea on whether its a mid drive(belt) or hub motor?

Check rear wheels, if any scooter’s rear wheel is fully black and without any holes unlike alloy wheels then it’s definitely hub motor otherwise its mid drive motor. Check TVS iCube rear wheel (hub motor) vs Ather 450x/Ola s1Pro rear wheel (mid drive motor) for comparison.

Sales will only increase if they provide true range of 120-130 and top speed of at least 90-95 kmph. Otherwise it is only a grocery shopping run scooter.

Your question prompted me to search for it; it's a hub motor, but the added gears, not sure if it qualifies for a unique proposition in the market. Thanks for asking this question

It can be called mid drive gear driven motor instead of hub motor. A hub motor is fitted at hub of wheel that’s why it is called hub motor, which is not the case here.
