Bajaj has launched the new Pulsar N250SS in India, an upgraded version of the Pulsar N250, at an attractive ex-showroom Delhi price of ₹1,59,406. The new N250SS packs an upgraded four-valve engine, a six-speed gearbox, electronic throttle technology, and an advanced full-TFT display.
Key Engine & Powertrain Upgrades
The updated Pulsar N250SS brings meaningful performance improvements over the outgoing N250 model, offering more output and a extra gear for better highway cruising:
| Feature / Spec | Pulsar N250SS Details |
| Engine Architecture | 4-valve engine |
| Power Output | 25 PS (increased from 24.5 PS) |
| Torque Output | 22 Nm (increased from 21.5 Nm) |
| Transmission | 6-speed gearbox (replaces the earlier 5-speed unit) |
| Price | ₹1,59,406 (ex-showroom Delhi) |
Electronics, Technology & Rider Aids
Replacing the previous LCD setup, the Pulsar N250SS gets a massive technology boost across throttle control and cockpit features:
- Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) & Ride Modes: The addition of ETB introduces dedicated ETB ride modes that work alongside the existing ABS modes for sharper throttle calibration.
- 5-inch TFT Display: Features a new 5-inch TFT console that replaces the older LCD display, offering full Google Maps mirroring for seamless navigation.
- Sports Shifter: Equipped with a Sports Shifter to handle quick, precise gear shifts.
- Safety & Practical Features: Includes Panic Brake Alert, adjustable brake and clutch levers, a hazard light switch, and a USB Type-C charging port.
My Thoughts
“With the quarter-litre segment getting hotter by the day in India, giving the Pulsar N250SS a proper 4V engine, a much-needed 6-speed gearbox, and electronic throttle modes is a massive step forward by Bajaj. The original N250 was always a smooth and torque-heavy machine, but missing out on a 6th gear and modern TFT navigation held it back. At under ₹1.60 lakh ex-showroom, bringing Google Maps mirroring, a Sports Shifter, and ETB ride modes makes this new N250SS quite competitive.”
