  The energy and rapidity dependence of the average transverse momentum
$\langle p_T \rangle$ in $pp$ and $pA$ collisions at RHIC and LHC energies are
estimated using the Colour Glass Condensate (CGC) formalism. We update previous
predictions for the $p_T$ - spectra using the hybrid formalism of the CGC
approach and two phenomenological models for the dipole - target scattering
amplitude. We demonstrate that these models are able to describe the RHIC and
LHC data for the hadron production in $pp$, $dAu$ and $pPb$ collisions at $p_T
\le 20$ GeV. Moreover, we present our predictions for $\langle p_T \rangle$ and
demonstrate that the ratio $\langle p_{T}(y)\rangle / \langle p_{T}(y =
0)\rangle$ decreases with the rapidity and has a behaviour similar to that
predicted by hydrodynamical calculations.
