Launched: In 1.5 Years UM Renegade Classic Gets 20k Price Hike

UM Renegade Classic price has increased 12 percent from its first announced price…

UM launched three motorcycles at the Auto Expo in February 2016. The most exciting Commando and Sports S were available for bookings soon after and their deliveries, though delayed, have been on for quite some time now. However the Classic was delayed from the announced ‘few months’ to almost 1.5 years. However, at a recent event, UM has finally launched their range-topping model in India.

Like its other motorcycles, Classic continues to be powered by the same 279.5 cc single cylinder fuel injected engine which produces 25.15 PS of peak power at 8500 rpm and 23 Nm of maximum torque at 7000 rpm and is paired with a 6 speed gearbox. There are no changes in the mechanicals and the speculated ABS is NOT being offered at this point.

Classic comes in two colours – Candy Metallic Glossy Black and Copper White. Which means that the maroon colour of the Auto Expo model has been given amiss.
