The Pulsar P150 is a modernised version of the iconic Pulsar 150 and pertaining to the moniker’s legacy, this bike blurred the lines between a sporty bike and a commuter. Overall, it has a sleek and sharp design language. The P150 gets a more advanced projector headlight and looks sportier than the FZ.

Powering the FZ-S FI is the same 149cc engine producing 12.4PS and 13.3Nm; however, it can now run on E20 blend fuel, 20% ethanol and 80% petrol.

The Pulsar P150 churns out more power from its new 149.68cc engine, based on the Pulsar N160. It produces 14.5PS and 13.5Nm, making it more powerful. That said, it’s not E20-compatible.

Both run on similar underpinnings with a telescopic fork up front and a monoshock at the rear.

Braking setup is similar too, with disc brakes at both ends. Although, the P150 also gets a drum unit at the rear as an option.
