The new variant of the Pulsar 180 has a certified mileage of 58 kmpl for driving at a constant speed of roughly 55 kmph. Under testing, the bike provides a mileage of approximately 40-45 kmpl, falling to about 35 kmpl in city traffic, which is reasonable but not outstanding – for some drivers; this will push the running costs of the bike too high for it to remain a budget option. The fuel tank has a capacity of 15 litres.
