2026 Bajaj Pulsar NS 400Z & Dominar 400, New 350cc Engine | First Ride Review
Bajaj's flagship 400s have undergone a major change, but does it actually affect the riding experience? In this video, I ride the updated Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z and Dominar 400 to find out.
Both motorcycles now feature a downsized 350cc engine, resulting in a slight dip in power and torque compared to the earlier version. However, Bajaj has also improved refinement and NVH levels, making both bikes feel smoother on the road. The Dominar 400 even gets a small power advantage over the NS400Z.
Since the design, features, and overall package remain unchanged, the focus is entirely on how the new engine performs in the real world. Watch till the end for my detailed comparison and verdict.

Renault Duster 1.0-Litre Fuel Efficiency Test & Review || Is It As Efficient As Claimed?
The Renault Duster is available with two engine options: a 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and a 1.3-litre turbo-petrol engine. The 1.0-litre engine is offered from the base variant onwards and is available across three variants with a 6-speed manual transmission. This engine is the same unit found in the Kiger, but it has been retuned to better suit the character of the Duster. It produces more torque than the Kiger, and the gear ratios have also been revised. We recently drove the mid-spec Techno variant equipped with the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine. Notably, this is the only variant in the lineup available with both the 1.0-litre and 1.3-litre turbo-petrol engine options.
Renault has equipped the Techno variant with a host of features, making it a compelling choice for most buyers. The new Duster is priced from Rs 10.49 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to Rs 18.89 lakh (ex-showroom).
In this video, we take a detailed look at everything the Techno variant has to offer and conduct a 100km fuel-efficiency run to test the real-world mileage of the new Duster. We discuss what we liked, what we didn’t, and reveal the mileage achieved by the Duster 1.0-litre under mixed driving conditions. The fuel-efficiency test was conducted using the tank-to-tank method.
If you're looking for a mid-size SUV, the new Duster can be a strong option, as it offers a good mix of features across the lineup. The turbo-petrol engine options are already on sale, and Renault is all set to introduce the hybrid powertrain around the festive season.
