Bajaj Auto is gearing up to unleash the Pulsar NS150, poised as the next-level street-naked contender in the 150cc segment. Expected to land in June 2026, this model brings upgrades designed to resonate well with Pulsar aficionados and riders in search of performance, style, and tech-led convenience.
Launch Timeline & Price
- Expected Launch: June 2026
- Estimated Ex-Showroom Price: Around ₹1.22 lakh
This puts it squarely between the Pulsar N160 (₹1.23 lakh) and NS160 (₹1.30 lakh) in terms of pricing
What Could Make the NS150 Stand Out?
Since official specs are yet to be confirmed, we can safely anticipate what will make the Pulsar NS150 shine based on industry patterns and sibling models:
1. Revamped Braking
The current Pulsar N150 features a 260 mm front disc and 130 mm rear drum with single-channel ABS.
The NS150 could well introduce dual-disc brakes (front and rear) with dual-channel ABS, elevating its braking confidence.
2. Enhanced Instrument Cluster & Connectivity
Bajaj has been integrating modern cockpit tech like digital consoles, Bluetooth, and USB-C ports in recent updates. The Pulsar 150 and N150/N160 saw these additions already.
The NS150 is likely to expand on this with a full digital display, smartphone pairing, navigation prompts, and a USB power outlet.
3. Refined Aesthetics
Staying true to the edgy and aggressive Pulsar street-naked look, expect the NS150 to sport:
- Sharper tank extensions
- LED lighting (headlamp & tail)
- Bold graphics and colorways (possibly with carbon-fiber accents or ‘Dagger Edge’ styling)
4. Engine & Performance
While powertrain upgrades are yet to be detailed, it’s likely to retain the 149.5–149.7 cc single-cylinder engine delivering around 14 PS and 13–13.5 Nm—though Bajaj may optimize for better pick-up, refinement, or fuel economy.
Positioned as an edgier, smarter sibling to the Pulsar N150, the NS150 promises to be a compelling mid-range streetfighter. With enhancements in braking, cockpit tech, styling, and overall tactility, it looks set to entice discerning riders who want a spirited machine with modern flair—without stepping into 160cc territory.
