The Bajaj Freedom 125 claims to offer a combined range of 330 kilometers.

The Bajaj Freedom comes with a 2 kg CNG tank, integrated under the seat. In addition, the bike has a 2-litre auxiliary petrol tank, located just ahead of the seat. According to Bajaj, the bike can travel up to 102 kilometres per kg of CNG, which gives a CNG-only range of 200 kilometres. Combined with the petrol tank, the total range is extended to 330 kilometres.

The Freedom 125 is powered by a 125cc single-cylinder engine, which produces 9.4 bhp of peak power and 9.7 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed gearbox. The bike gets a common fuel cap for both petrol and CNG, with a switch on the left handlebar allowing riders to switch between the two fuel options. The bike gets a 785 mm seat, which Bajaj claims is the longest in its segment.
