Big Changes Coming: Classic Pulsar Range in H2 2026

The biggest news for long-time Pulsar fans lies ahead. Bajaj has confirmed a major transformation for the Classic Pulsar 125 and Pulsar 150 models, expected to debut during the 2026 festive season.

What to Expect from the New Classic Pulsars

  • All-New Platform: Likely derived from the Pulsar N-series
  • Rear Suspension: Switch from twin shocks to a monoshock
  • Technology: Fully digital instrument cluster and next-gen connectivity
  • Design: Completely reworked styling while retaining Pulsar DNA

This will be the most significant update to the Classic Pulsar line since 2001.

A Legacy That Changed Indian Motorcycling

Since its launch in 2001, the Pulsar brand has sold over 21 million motorcycles globally, redefining affordable performance for Indian riders.

Sarang Kanade, President of Bajaj Auto’s Motorcycle Business Unit, stated that the anniversary campaign reflects Bajaj’s commitment to blending thrilling performance with real customer value.

GadiGarage Verdict

If you’re considering the Pulsar 220F or Pulsar 150, the anniversary offers make this a great time to buy. However, riders waiting for a fully modernised Classic Pulsar may want to hold off until late 2026.

So, which Pulsar defines your motorcycling journey — the original 180, the legendary 220F, or the powerful NS400Z?

India’s Two-Wheeler Industry Crosses 2 Crore Milestone in 2025

India’s Two-Wheeler

The Indian two-wheeler (2W) industry has scripted a strong comeback in calendar year 2025. For the first time since the pandemic slowdown, domestic sales have crossed the 2 crore (20 million) mark, closing the year at approximately 20.50 million units.

This translates to a 4.9%–7% year-on-year growth, depending on whether registration or dispatch data is considered. While still marginally below the all-time peak of 21 million units in 2018, the industry has clearly entered a fresh growth cycle heading into 2026.

1. Domestic Sales: A Policy-Led Recovery

The biggest turnaround came in the second half of 2025, driven largely by GST 2.0 reforms.

GST 2.0 Impact

  • GST on motorcycles and scooters up to 350cc reduced from 28% to 18%
  • Improved affordability for middle-class and first-time buyers
  • Immediate price correction across commuter and premium segments
  • Urban Growth Leads: Cities and tier-2 towns drove most of the volume
  • Scooters Grow Faster: Scooter demand grew quicker than motorcycles in urban markets
  • Festive Record: October–December (Q3) became the strongest quarter ever, with 5.70 million units sold
  • Rural Stability: Good monsoons and farm income kept rural demand steady, though urban India led growth

2. Exports: India’s Global Two-Wheeler Boom

Exports were the standout performer of 2025.

Export Highlights

  • 4.94 million units exported – an all-time high
  • 24.2% year-on-year growth
  • Strong recovery in:
    • African markets
    • South Asia
    • Latin America

India continues to strengthen its position as the global hub for affordable motorcycles and scooters.

3. Brand-Wise Snapshot: Winners & Momentum

Manufacturer2025 VolumeMarket Status
Hero MotoCorp57.5 lakhMarket leader; modest ~2% growth
TVS Motor Co.39.8 lakhFastest growth at 15.7%
Honda (HMSI)Gap with Hero widened to 8.51 lakh units
Royal Enfield10+ lakhExpected to cross 1 million annual sales
SuzukiStrong double-digit growth (Access, Burgman)

TVS emerged as the growth champion, while Royal Enfield continued to dominate the mid-capacity premium segment.

4. Major Market Shifts in 2025

Move Beyond 110cc

  • Strong pivot toward 125cc+ motorcycles
  • Premium scooters gained traction in cities

Alternative Fuels & Convenience

  • Growing interest in CNG two-wheelers
  • Automatic and AMT-style convenience becoming more important

Premiumisation Trend

  • Rising demand for:
    • Adventure motorcycles
    • 300cc–500cc middleweights
  • Market gradually moving away from pure “commuter-only” focus

2026 Outlook: Can India Beat the 2018 Record?

With:

  • Strong export momentum
  • Expected repo rate cuts
  • Income tax relief boosting disposable income
  • Multiple EV and ADV launches lined up

2026 could finally see India surpass its 2018 peak of 21 million two-wheelers.

Entry-level electric scooters and premium motorcycles are expected to be the biggest growth drivers going forward.

GadiGarage Verdict

Crossing 2 crore two-wheeler sales isn’t just a recovery milestone — it signals a structural reset for the Indian market. With better pricing, stronger exports, and shifting buyer preferences, the industry is entering a healthier, more diversified phase.

So, what are you watching in 2026 — electric scooters finally overtaking 110cc commuters, or the continued rise of premium motorcycles?
