Bajaj Auto, the home grown motorcycle manufacturer, has slipped to the third spot by losing second position to the Honda. It is just one month and Bajaj is already into the damage control mode. Recently Rajiv Bajaj, MD, Bajaj Auto told Money Control that the company is planning to launch 3-4 new products in 2013, which is Bajaj's attempt to regain its lost position. Mr, Bajaj said, “We have several launches lined up for this year. There are at least two new Pulsars- one that will be smaller than the Pulsar 200cc and another that will be much bigger. This is going to help us defend our leadership in this space and that is very important for us. However our main focus will be on the Discover brand and segment. The launch of the Discover 100T in January and our ability to sell 25,000 - 30,000 units a month has given us a new foothold in the commuter segment because it is for the first time in our history that we are selling units of a 100cc motorcycle in such large numbers.”
Here, the bigger Bajaj Pulsar is undoubtedly the upcoming Pulsar 375, which is based on the KTM Duke 390. While the other Pulsar series bike, which is said to be a sub-200cc bike, is still under the wraps. Bajaj has a full-fledged line-up of bikes at the moment and no spot is vacant in the sub-200cc category. So, it might be a new 150cc Pulsar family bike boasting the same design that of the Pulsar 200 NS. The bike will compete with upcoming Honda CB Trigger and other 150cc bikes like Yamaha FZ series. The new bike will be sold parallel to the existing Pulsar 150 and it might feature some of the first in class features.
Bajaj Pulsar 150 (2018-2026) User Reviews
- reliable daily commuter with great mileageNeeded something dependable for daily city traffic that wouldn't eat up all petrol money. looked at a few other 150cc options but the pulsar 150 just felt like the right balance of price, low maintenance and that classic muscular look that never gets old. Honestly pretty smooth for daily running, engine has nice pickup in lower gears so overtaking in heavy trafffic is easy, getting a solid 45-50 km regularly, only slight downside is minor handle vibes past 85 kmph but for everyday city speeds, its steady and comfortable. Definitely 100 percent recommend it, if you want a reliable everyday bike with decent power and great fuel efficiency, maintenance is super cheap and spare parts are available anywhere. just a solid, no nonsense daily runner that gets the job done.Read More4

- A True All-Rounder in the 150cc SegmentI chose this bike because it feels smooth and stable on highways while still offering good control in the city, even though the suspension feels slightly stiff on rough roads. It gives good mileage, looks stylish and is comfortable enough for family rides, making it a practical and reliable choice. The ride so far has been very satisfying. It feels comfortable for daily use, gives good mileage and has strong pickup. Handling is stable and confident, especially on highways where it feels smooth and controlled even at higher speeds. Yes, I would recommend this bike. I bought it mainly for daily office travel and occasional weekend rides. It gives me decent mileage and the pickup is good enough for city traffic. On highways it feels stable and confident. The suspension is slightly stiff on rough roads but overall comfort is fine. If someone wants a practical, stylish and reliable bike in this budget, this is a good choice.Read More10 2
