EVENLY-MATCHED CONTESTANTS
Both contestants delivered such close Fuel Efficiency figures so as to put them on an absolutely level field. We were certain the fat 100/90 x 17-inch new rear rubber on the new 150 DTS-i would compromise Fuel Economy, when comparing numbers to the conservative Unicorn on its slimmer rubber. However, the Pulsar managed to surpass any such deficit to churn out sparkling frugality despite its better-equipped rear tyre.

The new Pulsar 150’s DTS-i-enabled engine managed 47.3kpl on the city route and 51.5kpl cruising along the highways, while the smart gear ratios on the Unicorn helped it give 49.9kpl on the city run and 52.7kpl on the highway.
