Bajaj’s Pulsar range has reigned supreme in the Indian motorcycle market for years. The Bajaj Pulsar 150, a cornerstone of the brand’s success, recently received a much-anticipated update for the 2024 model year. Let’s delve into the exciting new features that make this beloved machine even more attractive to riders.
Classic Design, Modern Twists
Bajaj smartly opted to retain the Pulsar 150’s iconic design. This timeless look has cemented the Pulsar’s legacy and continues to resonate with riders. However, the 2024 model isn’t simply a rehash. Eye-catching new graphics with a 3D Pulsar logo on the fuel tank inject a dose of youthful vibrancy, keeping the Pulsar 150 relevant for the modern generation.
A Technological Leap Forward
One of the most significant upgrades comes in the form of a brand-new, fully digital instrument console. Replacing the older analog/digital setup, this modern LCD cluster displays all vital motorcycle information in a clear and concise manner. Gone are the days of juggling an analog tachometer and digital speedometer. Both are now digital, along with the addition of a gear position indicator for enhanced ride awareness.
Bluetooth Connectivity: A Connected Future
The new instrument cluster boasts Bluetooth connectivity, allowing riders to pair their smartphones with Bajaj’s proprietary app. This opens doors for exciting future possibilities, such as real-time ride data analysis and potentially even turn-by-turn navigation (though this feature is currently absent).
A Welcome Safety Boost
For the first time ever, the Pulsar 150 can be equipped with dual-channel ABS (Anti-Lock Braking System) on the top-spec variant. This crucial safety feature prevents wheel lockup during hard braking, significantly reducing the risk of skidding and accidents, especially on slippery surfaces.

Familiar Powertrain with Proven Performance
The 2024 Pulsar 150 retains its dependable 149.5cc single-cylinder air-cooled engine. This tried-and-tested powertrain churns out a peak power of 13.8 bhp and 13.2 Nm of peak torque, mated to a smooth-shifting 5-speed gearbox. While some might have craved an increase in power, this engine delivers a perfect balance of performance and fuel efficiency, making it ideal for everyday commuting and navigating city streets.
Practical Features Remain
The 2024 Pulsar 150 carries forward its practical features that riders have come to appreciate. The comfortable clip-on handlebars ensure a relaxed riding posture, while the split seat offers ample space for both rider and pillion. The dual disc brakes provide strong stopping power, and the 90/90-17 front and 120/80-17 rear tyres offer a good balance of grip and handling. Additionally, a convenient USB charger allows riders to keep their devices powered on the go.
