Bajaj Pulsar P150 — Overview

The Bajaj Pulsar P150 is the practical everyday choice in the 150cc Pulsar family - a commuter-oriented 150cc that prioritises a lower seat height, a large 14-litre fuel tank, and daily usability over the aggressive naked stance of the N150. Launched in September 2022, it uses the 149.5cc air-cooled DTS-i fuel-injected engine producing 14 PS and is available in two variants: a Single Disc and a Twin Disc. At Rs 1,13,000-1,17,000 ex-showroom, the P150 positions as the accessible, practical Bajaj 150cc for riders who want the Pulsar nameplate without the taller seat and sportier posture of the N-series.

What We Like

  • 790 mm seat height is 25 mm lower than the Pulsar N150 (815 mm) and matches the Yamaha FZ-S V3 - flat-footing at traffic stops is possible for riders around 5'4"; the P150 is the right Bajaj 150cc for shorter riders who find the N150 difficult to manage at slow speeds
  • 14-litre fuel tank is larger than the Honda SP 160 (12 litres) and Yamaha FZ-S V3 (12 litres); at real-world 56-60 kmpl, the P150 covers approximately 784-840 km per fill - one of the best range figures in the 150cc daily commuter segment
  • 14 PS from a 149.5cc DTS-i FI engine outguns the Honda SP 160's 13.45 PS from a 162.71cc engine - the P150 produces more power than Honda's 160cc commuter, which is a meaningful comparison at near-identical prices

What Could Be Better

  • Air-cooled engine heat in stop-start city traffic is the consistent owner complaint - the 149.5cc DTS-i radiates heat onto the rider's right leg at signals; in Bengaluru or Delhi summer conditions, this is a felt daily discomfort that no 150cc air-cooled bike fully avoids
  • Single-channel ABS on both variants - only the front wheel is ABS-controlled; the Twin Disc variant's rear disc brake operates without ABS assistance; at Rs 1,17,000, dual-channel ABS (which the N150 offers at Rs 1,16,000) is absent
  • Conventional styling compared to N150 and NS160 - the P150's design is more conservative than the aggressive N-series look; buyers expecting Pulsar's performance aesthetic may find the P150's visual character closer to a traditional commuter than a streetfighter

Editor's Verdict

Should You Buy the Bajaj Pulsar P150?

The Bajaj Pulsar P150 is the practical, accessible 150cc in the Pulsar lineup - lower seat than the N150, a large 14-litre tank, 14 PS, and two variants at Rs 1,13,000-1,17,000. For buyers under 5'6" who found the N150's 815mm seat height challenging, the P150 at 790mm is the correct Bajaj 150cc. The Twin Disc variant at Rs 1,17,000 competes directly with the Honda SP 160 and Yamaha FZ-S V3 on specification. Buyers who want the N-series sportbike design and can manage the 815mm seat should look at the N150 instead - it is marginally cheaper and more dynamic.

Frequently Asked Questions

QIs the Bajaj Pulsar P150 worth buying in 2026?▾
Yes - specifically for riders who find the N150's 815mm seat height too tall. The P150's 790mm seat height, 14-litre tank, and 14 PS make it a strong daily commuter at Rs 1,13,000-1,17,000. Buyers who are comfortable with the N150's seat height should evaluate the N150 first - it is marginally cheaper and has 0.5 PS more power.
QWhat is the mileage of Bajaj Pulsar P150?▾
The Bajaj Pulsar P150 has an ARAI-certified mileage of 65 kmpl. Real-world mixed riding returns approximately 56-60 kmpl. On steady highway runs at 70-80 kmph, owners report toward 60-65 kmpl. With the 14-litre tank, real-world range per fill is approximately 784-840 km.
QWhat is the difference between Bajaj Pulsar P150 and Pulsar N150?▾
The P150 and N150 share the same 149.5cc air-cooled DTS-i FI engine but differ in: seat height (P150: 790mm vs N150: 815mm), design (P150: conventional Pulsar styling; N150: aggressive N-series naked streetfighter), weight (P150: 145 kg; N150: 150 kg), and power (P150: 14 PS @ 8000 rpm; N150: 14.5 PS @ 8500 rpm). The P150 is the comfort and accessibility choice; the N150 is the performance and design choice. Both are priced similarly.
QDoes Bajaj Pulsar P150 have ABS?▾
Yes - both P150 variants have single-channel ABS on the 300mm front disc. The Twin Disc variant adds a 230mm rear disc but it operates without ABS (single-channel ABS controls only the front wheel). Full dual-channel ABS is not available on the P150.
QWhat is the on-road price of Bajaj Pulsar P150 in Delhi?▾
The Bajaj Pulsar P150 Single Disc ex-showroom price in Delhi is approximately Rs 1,13,000. On-road in Delhi - adding Delhi RTO (~8-10%), third-party insurance (~Rs 7,000-8,500), and dealer charges (~Rs 3,500) - is approximately Rs 1,29,000-1,36,000.
QBajaj Pulsar P150 vs Honda SP 160 - which is better?▾
The P150 wins on power (14 PS vs Honda SP 160's 13.45 PS - the smaller-displacement Bajaj actually makes more power), tank size (14L vs 12L), and starting price (Rs 1,13,000 vs Rs 1,18,000). The SP 160 wins on Honda's reputation for engine refinement and long-term reliability, and a slightly more premium build finish. For range and power at a lower entry price: P150. For Honda quality assurance: SP 160.
QBajaj Pulsar P150 vs Yamaha FZ-S FI V3 - which to buy?▾
The P150 wins on tank size (14L vs 12L) and power (14 PS vs 13.2 PS). The FZ-S V3 wins on engine refinement - the oil-cooled Yamaha runs noticeably cooler at traffic signals and vibrates less at commuter speeds than the air-cooled P150. At near-identical prices (~Rs 1,13,000 vs ~Rs 1,17,000), the FZ-S V3's engine smoothness makes it the better city daily; the P150's larger tank wins for riders who cover longer distances.
QWhat is the EMI for Bajaj Pulsar P150?▾
For the P150 Single Disc with an on-road price of approximately Rs 1,31,000 in Delhi, EMI on a 36-month loan (after 20% down payment of Rs 26,200) starts from approximately Rs 3,100-3,500 per month. For the Twin Disc at ~Rs 1,35,000 on-road, EMI is approximately Rs 3,200-3,600 per month.
