e668j6uk The Bajaj Qute promises low running cost along with ease of driving in city traffic conditions, thanks to its dimensions.

The Bajaj Qute is a quadricycle with space for three passengers apart from the driver. It is available in either petrol or a CNG variant but Uber will be using only the CNG variant for the Uber XS rides. The Bajaj Qute CNG has a claimed mileage of 43 km/kg. The low cost of running along with ease of driving and its compact dimensions make for a very convenient cab experience.

The Bajaj Qute is powered by a 216 cc, single-cylinder, twin-spark engine which is available as a mono-fuel version. That means you can either get it in petrol form, or CNG, not both. The petrol version puts out around 13 bhp at 5500 rpm and 18.9 Nm at 4,000 rpm. The CNG variant puts out just over 10 bhp of power and around 16 Nm of peak torque, and the engine is paired to a five-speed gearbox.
