2026 Bajaj Pulsar 150 Gets Subtle Styling and LED Updates

Overview of the 2026 Bajaj Pulsar 150

The Bajaj Pulsar 150 for 2026 is expected to receive mild visual enhancements while continuing with its well-established mechanical setup. Rather than a complete redesign, Bajaj appears to be focusing on refreshing the motorcycle’s appearance and features to keep it relevant in the competitive 150cc segment.

Design Updates and Styling Enhancements

Recent leaked images indicate that the 2026 Pulsar 150 will feature new decals on the fuel tank. These updated graphics give the motorcycle a refreshed appearance while maintaining the familiar Pulsar identity that has appealed to riders for years. The overall silhouette and body panels are expected to remain unchanged.

Lighting Improvements and LED Elements

Although the leaked image does not clearly show the headlamp, the turn indicators are visible and appear to be slimmer LED units. These indicators closely resemble those used on the Pulsar NS160. According to sources, Bajaj may also introduce an LED headlamp, which would be a welcome upgrade over the existing setup and improve night-time visibility.

Engine and Performance Details

Mechanically, the 2026 Pulsar 150 is expected to remain unchanged. It will likely continue using the 149.5cc single-cylinder engine that delivers 14hp of power and 13.4Nm of torque. This engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox and is known for its balance of performance, fuel efficiency, and everyday usability.

Variants and Hardware Differences

Bajaj is expected to continue offering the Pulsar 150 in two variants: single-disc and twin-disc. While the braking systems differ, there are additional hardware distinctions between the two versions. The single-disc variant comes equipped with a 31mm telescopic front fork, whereas the twin-disc version features a sturdier 37mm telescopic fork for improved front-end stability.

Expected Pricing and Market Position

Currently, the Pulsar 150 is priced at Rs 1.05 lakh for the single-disc variant and Rs 1.12 lakh for the twin-disc variant, ex-showroom. With the 2026 update focusing mainly on cosmetic and lighting enhancements, a significant price increase is unlikely when the refreshed model is officially launched.
