I swear, I almost choked on my morning tea today when I saw this ‘breaking news’ popping up everywhere-Tata Motors is launching a 250cc bike? And the price? A hilarious ₹42,000! Wait, it gets even more wild-they’re actually promising 90 kmpl mileage too.
Honestly, my first thought was: ‘Bhai, seriously? Kaun hai ye log jo itna safed jhoot faila rahe hain?’ (Who are these people spreading such blatant lies?).
While we’re all busy waiting for the real Tata Punch Facelift launch tomorrow (Jan 13), some people are living in a dream world of ghost bikes.
The “Too Good to Be True” Specs
The viral posts are making some crazy claims. They say this new Tata bike will have:
- A 250cc liquid-cooled engine (Performance level).
- A top speed that touches 155 km/h.
- And that 90 kmpl mileage (which sounds like magic).
Now, if you’ve ever bought even a basic 100cc Splendor, you know it costs around ₹80,000 these days. So, a 250cc performance bike for ₹42k? That’s cheaper than a high-end smartphone! It just doesn’t sit right with the math.
Why My Gut Says It’s a Rumor
There are a few big reasons why I’m not biting into this news:
- The Physics of Mileage: Look, a 250cc engine is heavy and powerful. Getting 90 kmpl out of it is like expecting an elephant to run on a handful of grass. It’s practically impossible with the tech we have in 2026.
- Tata’s Real Plans: I’ve checked Tata Motors’ official updates, and they are 100% focused on EVs and SUVs. There hasn’t been even a tiny hint from their side about entering the two-wheeler market.
- Those Viral Photos: If you look closely at the pictures going viral, they have that “weird” AI look. The logos are a bit off, and the designs look like something out of a sci-fi movie.
The Bottom Line
I know we all love the trust that comes with the Tata name. We want them to build everything because we know they’ll make it safe and solid. But for now, this ₹42,000 bike seems like a classic case of “Internet Clickbait.” If you are actually looking for a 250cc bike, my advice would be to go for the Bajaj Pulsar N250 or the Suzuki Gixxer. At least you know they are real and you won’t be waiting for a ghost bike.
