Bajaj Auto has given its Dominar lineup a meaningful update for 2025, adding modern electronics and improving long-distance comfort. The Dominar 400 and 250 now come better equipped for touring, without losing their core character.
Pricing
- Dominar 400: ₹2,38,682 (ex-showroom Delhi)
- Dominar 250: ₹1,91,654 (ex-showroom Delhi)
Both bikes replace the previous versions.
What’s Changed
This update focuses on making the Dominar feel more current and easier to live with on long rides.
Key additions include:
- Ride-by-wire throttle (Dominar 400)
- Four riding modes: Road, Rain, Sport, and Off-road
- ABS-based ride modes on the Dominar 250
- New bonded glass LCD instrument cluster
- Updated switchgear
On the practical side:
- A redesigned handlebar aims to reduce fatigue
- A factory-fitted GPS mount makes navigation simpler
On the Road
The addition of ride-by-wire changes how the bike responds to inputs. It’s smoother in low-grip conditions and sharper when you want performance.
- Rain mode feels more controlled and predictable
- Sport mode brings out stronger throttle response
- Off-road mode gives you more flexibility on loose surfaces
These are small changes individually, but together they make the bike feel more versatile.
Touring Still at the Core
The Dominar has always been positioned as a practical touring motorcycle. That hasn’t changed.
What Bajaj has done here is refine the experience:
- Better comfort for long hours
- Useful factory-fitted touring bits
- Electronics that actually add value
Final Take
This isn’t a complete overhaul, and it doesn’t need to be.
The 2025 Dominar range feels like a well-thought-out upgrade:
- More usable technology
- Better everyday comfort
- Same strong touring capability
For riders looking at an affordable sports tourer, the Dominar now feels more complete than before.
